GREEN BAY – The Packers are not the best team in football, but Green Bay remains the best football city in the country and one of the best sports cities overall.

The personal finance website WalletHub ranked Green Bay as the best city for football and 21st best for sports, slipping a little from 19th last year. It has been first in football for several years running.

For its survey, WalletHub compared 419 cities using 50 measures related to the five largest sports in the United States: football, basketball, baseball, hockey and soccer.

The overall ranking is remarkable because Green Bay finished dead last in baseball and hockey, and was 127th in soccer and 181st in basketball. Apparently, Green Bay's football counts more than everyone else's everything else.

"If there's anywhere you'd love to watch a professional football game, Green Bay comes to most people's minds," said Brad Toll, president and CEO of the Greater Green Bay Convention and Visitors Bureau. "When people look at these rankings, Green Bay kind of has that football mystique already. It only reinforces that 'We have to get there someday.'"

What's less easy to grasp is how it ranked second overall among mid-sized cities behind Cincinnati. Cincinnati?!

In the mid-sized category, cities of 100,000 to 300,000 population, four of the top five have professional football teams. Two, Cincinnati and Glendale, Ariz., also have professional baseball teams. Salt Lake City, which ranked fourth, has a professional basketball team.

In its football rankings, which were released earlier this year and incorporated into the overall ranking, Green Bay finished ahead of Pittsburgh by a little and ahead of Dallas, Boston and everyone else by a lot.

Boston ranked first as the country's best overall sports city, followed by Los Angeles, New York, Pittsburgh and Chicago.

In the football ranking, Green Bay had the most-accessible stadium and tied with Pittsburgh for the most-engaged fans.

According to WalletHub, the North American sports industry, including fantasy sports and eSports competitive video games, accounts for more than $1 trillion annually. In the U.S., nearly three quarters of all adults claim to be sports fans, and in 2017, 86 of the top 100 telecasts watched live or the same day were sports events.
