Americans love coffee. In fact according to a study done by the National Coffee Association, 62 percent of Americans drink coffee everyday with the average coffee drinker drinking 3 cups a day.

That led WalletHub to search for the Best Coffee Cities in America and the findings, at least the city that came in first place, may not shock you too much. Seattle, Washington came ranked first as the best coffee city in America. Meanwhile Lubbock, ranked 92nd.

So how did WalletHub come to their conclusions? A number of factors including the price of coffee, and coffee culture according to a press release.

To determine the best local coffee scenes in America, WalletHub compared the 100 largest cities across 12 key indicators of a strong coffee culture. The data set ranges from coffee shops, coffee houses and cafés per capita to the average price per pack of coffee.
