The _Wall Street Journal_ recently published [a list](http://blogs.wsj.com/numbers/which-cities-get-the-most-sleep-1662/ "undefined") revealing the cities that get the most and least sleep based off a one year dataset provided by Jawbone. Jawbone makes a digital wristband called UP that tracks when its wearers are awake or asleep and how many steps they take within a day. The _Journal_ reports that this is not a representative study of the general population, and rather a representation of how UP users sleep across the world. \[[_Wall Street Journal_](http://blogs.wsj.com/numbers/which-cities-get-the-most-sleep-1662/ "undefined")\] ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3145532/cities-sleep/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3145532/cities-sleep/"},"headline":"Find Out Which Cities Get the Most Sleep","datePublished":"2014-08-19T21:45:10.000Z","dateModified":"2026-02-21T09:45:17.895Z","description":"There's no city that never sleeps","url":"https://time.com/3145532/cities-sleep/","keywords":["Sleep","New York","Japan","study","health","Jawbone"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blte40b5679668d564f/6986a01d3bc99914611a4f6c/144560998.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"TIME Video","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/time-video/"}],"articleSection":"Health","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blte40b5679668d564f/6986a01d3bc99914611a4f6c/144560998.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"144560998","caption":"144560998","creditText":"Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/health/","name":"Health"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"/tag/sleep/","name":"Sleep"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/3145532/cities-sleep/","name":"Find Out Which Cities Get the Most Sleep"}}]}] ```
