A new survey set to come out in the March issue of Men's Health Magazine names Billings as the third "drunkest" city in America.

According to USA Today, the list was created using "data such as death rates from alcoholic liver disease, booze-fueled car crashes, frequency of binge-drinking in the past month, number of DUI arrests and severity of DUI penalties."

Topping the list was Fresno, CA, with Reno, NV following in the number two spot.

No Montana towns other than Billings made the list.

Some of the nation's largest cities fell fairly low on the list, with New York City coming in at 93, Chicago at 85, and Los Angeles ranked #48.

Boston was the least-drunk city in the country coming in at #100.

Here's a list of the top ten, in rank-order:
Fresno, CA
Reno, NV
Billings, MT
Riverside, CA
Austin, TX
St. Louis, MO
San Antonio, TX
Lubbock, TX
Tucson, AZ
Bakersfield, CA
