Cnn's Best Towns Of Us

[BizsBeatoftheDay]

List of Best Towns in the US

Look at how many of them are California cities. Only 3, and they're all ranking 70-90.

And not to mention most of the top cities are all "white cities" compared to the nation in general.

Nebraskan, Ohian, Missourian cities in the top list? What's so great about this?

[Jerich0]

Cali.... Sorry live on East coast.

[Earthshine]

Massachusetts has 6 in the top 100, 5 in the top 50.

[K-RadPie]

What did they even base this list on? Being boring as fuck?

[BizsBeatoftheDay]

If you look at any given city from this list, you'll notice they are all 90-99% white in terms of the ethnicity of the population.

Have you ever been to them?

i grew up in illinois and i've been all around the area. after being pretty much all around the country, i can guarantee you that the midwest is the most boring place in the united states. that list is probably looking at the best places to live for senior citizens who don't want kids skateboarding past their houses.

[SpiffyMasta]

Most of those those are rich town where everyone is employed and has a big gigantic house.

I'm pretty sure employment levels had something to do with those ratings.

It's a completely stupid article. Who cares about the top 100 cities according to CNN...seriously...I'll live wherever the fuck I want.

[LatinClock]

Lol that's one crappy list you got there, most of it is california, LOL.

[Straight-Edge]

The top cities are always suburbs of larger towns. They have the accessibility of a small town, with all of the amenities associated with large cities.

[Aryk]

Lol my state isn't on there once out of 100 cities. Fuck that.

[FlyByNight]

Haha mine's number 8.

Exactly. No beaches, no coastal areas, and I'd assume they'd have completely boring weather.

I've lived here all my life, and I can agree with that a little bit. Now it completely depends where, like the rural areas will be very cheap, but if you live in Marin or SF, the housing will be pretty damn expensive. Even it's a bit expensive here, but it's worth it to live near the coast and with things to do.

Peachtree City FTW! I never thought there'd be another GA native here.

oh yeah. except for tornado season. that's about the only excitement the environment provides people in the midwest. boring landscape, boring culture, boring life. fuck. that. place.

[DiscoveryOne]

while I am happy that a Minnesotan city is #2. I disagree with them on it being Chanhassen. I never like Chanhassen. And Chaska was also in the top 25. Chaska was worse. Had horrible and aging infrastructure and has increasing gang problems... no thanks.

Plus, Eckankhar is based in Chanhassen. And cults dont sit well with me

[ultima09]

Ive never heard of the citys in Florida. What about Orlando or Miami or even Jacksonville?
Bias much?

[ripoffhitman]

I live in Colorado and i've never heard anything great about Louisville. I havn't heard it sucks or anything but nobody even mentions it.

[X-Gary-Gigax-X]

No love for Montana

Who you kiddin'? Me being from eastern Missouri (St. Louis), I wonder why Lake St. Louis, MO ended up 9th on that list. What's best about Lake Saint Louis: It's all white and all right. And if your not white, your all wrong.
