Texas has four of the top fifteen. Houston leads everyone else when it comes to complaining about loud noise, and are second in complaining about loud parties. Smelly pets and leaving holiday decorations up are also pet peeves.
Among the most confrontational cities, where people prefer to settle their differences face-to-face rather than texting or leaving a note, we rank third. San Antonio is number one.
