WASHINGTON, DC — Washington, D.C., is at the top of a list nobody wants to win: the worst-run cities in America, according to a new analysis of the operating efficiency of 150 of the nation's largest cities. Detroit was the second-worst run city, followed by New York City.

Nampa, Idaho, topped the list from the personal finance website WalletHub. For each city, the analysts constructed a "Quality of City Services" score – comprising 33 key performance indicators grouped into six service categories – that was then measured against the city's total per-capita budget. The District had abysmal scores for the quality of city services and the total budget per capita. (Get Patch's daily newsletter and real-time news alerts. Or like us on Facebook.

A couple of Virginia cities received high marks in the analysis: Virginia Beach was ranked No. 17, Chesapeake placed at No. 38, Norfolk was ranked No. 109 and Richmond came in at No. 125.
