Best Places To Live In

Money Magazine offers an excellent guide on some of the best places to live in the U.S.
Their rankings are based on jobs, schools and housing costs.
You can search by state and closest location to where you live now. You can also compare the cost of living in different towns. I often try to explain to people that their dollar will go a lot further outside of the big cities (especially in housing costs) and they will live a better quality of life. Hopefully, once you see the low cost, high quality neighborhoods available around the U.S., you might move to one of these great towns.
