At Livability, we love small and mid-sized cities — the crowd-pleasing, best places to live that leave you with money left over after paying your rent or mortgage. Speaking of mortgages, you might actually be able to get one of those without breaking the bank.
For 10 years now, Livability editors have combined our love of places with data to create our annual list of the Top 100 Best Places To Live in the U.S. Today, we’re not the only best places list out there — great content from our peers at U.S. News & World Report and Resonance also spotlight some amazing U.S. cities, but we take an approach no one else does.
