Methodology: The data in this index was drawn from the Center for Disease Control and Prevention’s annual Behavioral Risk Factors Surveillance System (BRFSS) using telephone surveys to collect information on health behaviors in all 50 states. More than 350,000 adults are interviewed each year. SleepBetter’s statistical team pulled data using two variables: the average number of days per month that respondents report inadequate sleep and the percentage of respondents reporting inadequate sleep more than half of the time. The data was then sorted against national TV markets from Nielson Media Research Company’s designated market areas (DMA) and ranked based on the blended value of the two variables.
