Hahahahahahaha this can't be serious, these are some of the last places I would choose to live, I mean ones in fucking Florida and the other 2 are suburban hellscapes

Okay Charlotte I can deal with, it has a light rail, that's good, but what's in fucking greenville

How much did the Sun Belt pay for this, I mean these are not good cities, Austin may be like the least bad in Texas but it ain't good either. And Virginia Beach is barely a city, it's just suburbs

Okay Boulder in the top 10, I can live with that, wouldn't be on my list but not the worst

We are starting to reach somewhat decent cities but all 3 need way better transit

Me when I Lie

I mean sure if your rich, the downtown is nice but God is Asheville expensive

I like Ann Arbor, it's your nice classic College Town, just needs commuter rail to Detroit

I wouldn't recommend anywhere in Indiana as a place to live

I mean glad to see a walkable city at last but did they even factor price into the equation for this???

Again, DO NOT MOVE TO INDIANA

Okay Seattle is good and I have heard good things about Knoxville, I will be visiting Knoxville later this month so I will review it then but Atlanta? This is just wrong

No

If you want good cities off the list, here are 4 of the semi decent ones

Portland is fine, the MAX is Neat but fucking Louisville, that's wrong, there is no other word for it but Louisville is not a place you want to move to, parts are nice and walkable but it's like 70% suburbs and acts as though it's trapped in the 90s

In the methodology they used crime rates weighed at a quarter of the QoL index which made up 32% of the scoring

They did not include queer rights, transit or walkability in their metrics
