Being stuck at home during the coronavirus pandemic means fewer vacations, strangers delivering meals and groceries, and a greater reliance on Wi-Fi for all those work-from-home video calls or job interviews.<\/p>

The majority of us aren\u2019t fortunate enough to be \u201cstuck\u201d at a beach bungalow. So, if you\u2019re truly staying safe at home here in the USA, where\u2019s the best place to be?<\/p>

LawnStarter crunched the data and statistics for the 150 most populated U.S. cities and compared them using 29 metrics, ranging from property crime rate and pedestrian fatalities to suicide rate and food insecurity. We also considered data associated with being stuck at home during the coronavirus pandemic.<\/p>

And the winner is\u2026 The safest, best U.S. city to be stuck at home is Frisco, Texas<\/a>.<\/p>

This fast-growing suburb of Dallas-Fort Worth tops our ranking of America\u2019s Best Cities to Be Stuck at Home, thanks largely to its extremely high marks for quality of life and financial security.<\/p>

While Frisco grabbed the No. 1 spot, two of its Dallas-Fort Worth neighbors \u2014 McKinney at No. 3 and Plano at No. 8 \u2014 also finished in the top 10.<\/p>

Four California cities also landed on our top 10 list.<\/p>

As far as the worst city for being stuck at home? Detroit. More on that in just a moment.<\/p>

America\u2019s 10 Best Cities to Be Stuck at Home<\/h2>

With Frisco in the No. 1 position, here are the 10 best cities to be stuck at home, followed by their overall scores (with 100 being the highest possible score).<\/p>

  1. Frisco, Texas (79.491)<\/li>
  2. Elk Grove, California (79.489)<\/li>
  3. McKinney, Texas (77.076)<\/li>
  4. Overland Park, Kansas (73.444)<\/li>
  5. Fremont, California (71.984)<\/li>
  6. Des Moines, Iowa (70.625)<\/li>
  7. Santa Clarita, California (70.266)<\/li>
  8. Plano, Texas (70.160)<\/li>
  9. Virginia Beach, Virginia (69.893)<\/li>
  10. Irvine, California (68.564)<\/li> <\/ol>

    Why Frisco gets high marks<\/h3>

    Frisco is quickly becoming the country’s worst-kept secret. It’s the fastest-growing large U.S. city from 2010 to 2019. You can credit Money.com, which ranked Frisco the best place to live<\/a> in the U.S. In 2019. SmartAsset.com also gets credit for declaring Frisco the second safest city<\/a> in the country.<\/p>

    \u201cWe\u2019ve created a product that is appealing to the market,\u201d Tony Felker, president and CEO of the Frisco Chamber of Commerce said in May 2020. \u201cWe\u2019ve created a culture and environment that is good for families<\/a>, it\u2019s good for business, [and] it\u2019s good for safety and community.\u201d<\/p>

    America\u2019s 10 Worst Cities to Be Stuck at Home<\/h2>

    Led by Detroit, here are the 10 worst cities to be stuck at home, followed by their overall scores (with 100 being the highest possible score).<\/p>

    1. Detroit, Michigan (36.234)<\/li>
    2. Memphis, Tennessee (40.856)<\/li>
    3. New Orleans, Louisiana (41.132)<\/li>
    4. St. Louis, Missouri (41.181)<\/li>
    5. Shreveport, Louisiana (41.236)<\/li>
    6. Mobile, Alabama (43.630)<\/li>
    7. Cleveland, Ohio (44.036)<\/li>
    8. Birmingham, Alabama (45.072)<\/li>
    9. San Bernardino, California (45.581)<\/li>
    10. Albuquerque, New Mexico (46.074)<\/li> <\/ol>

      Why Detroit gets low marks<\/h3>

      Detroit<\/a> gets little love in livability rankings. Niche.com puts it at No. 207<\/a> among the 228 best U.S. cities for young professionals, while U.S. News & World Report ranks it as the 92nd best place to live<\/a> in the country. Detroit sits at the bottom of data website Numbeo\u2019s latest quality-of-life index<\/a> for North American cities.<\/p>

      However, as the Detroit Economic Growth Corp. points out, the Motor City boasts some of the most affordable housing<\/a> in the U.S.<\/p>

      \u201cIt\u2019s time to erase the preconceptions you may have about working, living, and playing in Detroit. Buoyed with enthusiasm, Detroit is ascending to its rightful place on the world stage,\u201d the economic development group says.<\/p>

      Still, our study shows there\u2019s little reason to be enthusiastic about Detroit as a place to be stuck at home. The city receives a rock-bottom score in the health and wellness category. It also picks up a low score in the community security and financial security columns.<\/p>
