Everyone who lives in Colorado would agree that it is a great place to be. From our majestic Rocky Mountains, to the crystal-clear lakes and streams, to the plains in the east, there’s something for everyone to enjoy.
Each year, Money Magazine puts out a list of their top 100 small cities. According to the editors, these cities “boast plenty of jobs, great schools, safe streets, low crime, lots to do, and more.” The new August issue has the new top 100.
Colorado is represented by five towns, with three being in the top 25. Those towns are:
6. Fort Collins
12. Highlands Ranch
19. Broomfield
33. Loveland
58. Arvada
According to the editors, the 2006 winner, Fort Collins, was hurt because the school district has had such trouble with funding through the recession. Loveland, though, was a pleasant surprise for me, since it is one of my favorite towns in Colorado.
It makes me wonder what kind of impact these towns will see after receiving such notice. Will they see an influx of people moving to them? Will it stay the same? Could it draw in more businesses to the region?
