My hometown was voted #1, baby
And THIS is why I am excited to get back to see it in a week:
Plymouth is best place to live, Money magazine says
(taken from an article by TIM HARLOW, Star Tribune Newspaper)
The best city to live in in America is Plymouth [my hometown]. At least that's the consensus of a team of writers and editors at Money magazine who today released their list of the top 100 cities with populations of 50,000 to 300,000.
The west metro suburb with a population of 70,100 came in at the head of the class and was lauded for its plentiful number of jobs, quality schools, affordable housing, arts and culture, recreation space, low crime rates and its proximity to the downtowns of Minneapolis and St. Paul, the Mall of America in Bloomington and area's professional sports teams and cultural attractions.
Of course the magazine chided the city for its long, cold winter.
Plymouth was not the only Minnesota city to make Money's top-100 list. If you check out the link above (see: top 1oo cities), you'll also find Medicine Lake and French Park prominately featured. These locations are just blocks from where I grew up.
Anyways, just something fun for the day. If you're from MN or th Midwest, here are some other cities (in the area!) that made the list: Eagan came in at No. 17, Apple Valley at No. 24, Lakeville at No. 26, Eden Prairie at No. 40, Maple Grove at No. 41, Burnsville at No. 43, Rochester at No. 70 and Blaine at No. 93.
