I came across a great article today outlining the nation's top relocation destinations.  Thought it was interesting ... so I decided to pass it along.

Relocate-America.com, which provides resources to people who are relocating to a new community, has compiled a list of cities and towns that its customers believe are the best places to live.

In order to make the list, a community must first be nominated by someone familiar with the area's benefits. Relocate-America's editorial team reviews the nominations for compelling reasons that make the community a top place to live. Such descriptions often include references to a community's people and neighborhoods, beauty of the area, quality of the schools, things to do, economic vibrancy and environmental health.

The top 10 towns are:

  1. Asheville, N.C.
  2. Traverse City, Mich.
  3. Ithaca, N.Y.
  4. Chicago
  5. Cary, N.C.
  6. Portland, Maine
  7. San Francisco
  8. Stevens Point, Wis.
  9. O'Fallon, Mo.
  10. Spencer, Iowa

The complete Top 100 List, compiled annually since 1998, can be viewed at Top100.Relocate-America.com.
