The Unluckiest Cities in Texas, According to a Betting House Analysis
· Telemundo McAllen (KTLM)
A new report from the online casino BetUS reveals the unluckiest cities in the United States, based on factors such as the number of Mega Millions and Powerball winners, the number of casinos in the city, and disaster exposure according to FEMA, among other criteria. While many people in North Texas have won between $1 and $5 million from scratch-off tickets or by matching five numbers in major drawings, no one has claimed the jackpot. As a result, Lubbock, Texas, ranks as the unluckiest city in the U.S., with a luck score of 15.48. The city has never had a Mega Millions or Powerball jackpot winner and lacks casinos within a 25-mile radius, limiting the chances of significant winnings. Additionally, Lubbock has a disaster exposure rate of 140.2 per 100,000 residents, contributing to its low overall score. Garland, Texas, (in the Dallas/Fort Worth metropolitan area) comes in second with a luck score of 15.73. The city has not recorded any lottery jackpot winners and also lacks casinos within a 25-mile radius, along with a relatively high disaster exposure rate. These factors place Garland among the cities with the worst overall luck. Irving, Texas, (also in the Dallas/Fort Worth metropolitan area) ranks third with a luck score of 16.37. The city has not had any Mega Millions or Powerball jackpot winners, lacks casinos within a 25-mile radius, and has a disaster exposure rate of 150.3 per 100,000 residents.
