Readers of this blog know that we are suckers for lists. This one popped up today and had to be shared. One thought, the author mentions that the government’s OMB office has split up towns like Raleigh-Durham in to two separate towns. This seems strange – especially living in the Twin Cities of Minneapolis-St. Paul. At any rate, here are the top 10 with links to Forbes’ explanation for their ranking:
| 1. | Albuquerque, NM | 6. | Phoenix, AZ |
| 2. | Raleigh, NC | 7. | Nashville, TN |
| 3. | Houston, TX | 8. | Durham, NC |
| 4. | Boise, ID | 9. | Fayetteville, AR |
| 5. | Knoxville, TN | 10. | Indianapolis, IN |
