A men’s magazine has rated the top 100 cities in a listing it calls “Hotbeds of Sex.” Leading the list is Austin, Texas. And Number 100 is Portland. (Or as the editors put it “People are most sexually active in Austin Texas and are the least frisky in Portland, Maine.”)

Men’s Health magazine ranked the cities using data on condom sales, birth rates, sex toy sales and rates of sexually transmitted diseases.

No city in New England fared well in this list. Boston could be called “the friskiest” in the region with a rank of 76.
