We lived almost50 years in two of those cities. We now live in the country. I would never live in Lawrence again. In fact, we don’t even like going into it because of the homeless situation. It’s gone way downhill. It’s way too woke. Overland Park is heading that way. The schools used to be good but now not so much.

I am glad to see that only 3 towns in Florida made the list.

We already have too many people who have moved here.

Cities and towns are like the bases we used to be assigned to in the air force.

The best one is the one you just left, the worst one is the one where you are currently living.

My son and his wife moved from Boston to Cary, NC in 2017, have since had two boys, and it really is a great place to raise a family. Cary/Raleigh doesn’t have the history and the big city feel of Boston, but it also doesn’t have the horrible traffic and miserable weather. There is so much to do for kids in Cary, and the beach and the mountains are not too far away for a weekend trip. My daughter-in-law was reluctant to leave her family in Boston, but now she loves how much easier it is to be a mom in Cary.

They say they are only considering cities between 75,000 and 500,000 people. But some of the Cities mentioned are really suburbs of major cities.

If they’re trying to say they’re looking for places that are outside major metropolitan areas they are contradicting themselves on their criteria.

San Francisco?

Or anywhere in California.

The list is nonsense, unless stepping over fecal matter and driving by homeless encampments is exciting.

West coast - Completely out of the running.

East Coast - Maryland on north no way, except maybe Vermont.

I can pick and choose the rest but that covers the major areas.

Pretty much all smaller cities except for 3 of them.

If Jersey City (NJ) and Clifton (NJ) are on this list, then their criteria are idiotic. I wouldn’t let my dog spend a night in either place.

One of the (if not the) worst aspects of the 2024 version of the Internet is the deluge of "Best" lists. They're everywhere. You name a topic and someone has a "Best" list of it, including lists of the best "Best of" lists. It's absurd!

Even the best of them are little better than click-bait with precious little actionable "fact," but the simple fact of their proliferation is a clear indication of how many undiscerning Netizens are getting sucked in to them.

I saw one last week with the headline, "The 85 best Rock bands of the 1980s." I was well into adulthood before the 1980s began and I doubt I could compile a list of 85 bands that originated in that era, good, bad or indifferent.

And NO, I didn't click it to see. I am not infected with the pandemic FOMA* disease.

*FOMA: fear of missing out
