Portland Named 2nd Most "Hygge" City In U.S.

(Portland, OR)  --  Portland is being called one of the nation's top cities for hygge.  Hygge is a Danish word that describes qualities of coziness and conviviality, especially during moments of inclement weather.  Sperling's Best Places released its ranking of the country's top hygge cities last week, looking at factors like the number of cold days, the percentage of homes with a fireplace, the number of venues for drinking coffee, tea, beer and wine, and the number of people who enjoy hygge pastimes like reading, knitting and playing board games.  Seattle was ranked number one, followed by Portland and Minneapolis.  Salt Lake City and Denver round out the top five.
