Top 5
1. Denver, CO
2. Austin, TX
3. Fayetteville, AR
4. Raleigh-Durham, NC
5. Colorado Springs, CO

Of note:
17. Houston
21. Dallas-Fort Worth
61. Atlanta
63. Baton Rouge
91. New Orleans
96. New York

I don't give much thought and care to the meaning of US News rankings and the subsequent bragging/bickering. However, the rankings have great information to compare job markets, crime rates, average rent, average commute times, etc.

My thoughts exactly. Hence why I don't give the rankings much weight.

Colorado in general seems like the best place to live.

Don't agree with Cincinnati being in the top 50

Denver is one of the most beautiful places to live in the world. Skiing, rock climbing, rafting, clean city, little amounts of homeless. The fault of the city is living with a ton of hipsters and liberals.

Kinda shy away from debates like that, but I'd live in Colorado just because of the outdoor adventures and Red Rocks. Weed would be icing on the cake.

Damn. I've lived in each of the top 3 and am currently sitting at the airport in Raleigh/Durham.
