Pittsburgh Named Best City For Easter Celebrations

PITTSBURGH (KDKA) -- Pittsburgh is receiving high marks for its Easter celebrations.

The holiday signifies the end of Lent and the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Wallethub.com placed Pittsburgh at the very top of a list of the nation's best cities for celebrating the holiday.

1. Pittsburgh, PA
2. St. Louis, MO
3. Orlando, FL
4. Cincinnati, OH
5. Birmingham, AL
6. Atlanta, GA
7. Buffalo, NY
8. Washington, DC
9. Honolulu, HI
10. Cleveland, OH

The website used factors such as "average price of eggs", "number of egg-hunt events per capita" and "percentage of Christian population" to determine each city's standing on the list. The amount of candy and flower shops also played a part in the decision.

Six cities in California landed at the bottom of the list, making them a few of the worst cities for celebrating Easter.
