The city snagged the No. 19 spot, while New York and Portland took first and second place, respectively.

The personal finance site came up with its results by analyzing the 100 largest U.S. cities across 15 “key indicators of vegan- and vegetarian-friendliness,” such as cost of groceries, number of restaurants serving vegan options and amount of farmers markets per capita.

Those metrics were then categorized into three major sections: affordability; diversity, accessibility and quality; and vegetarian lifestyle.
