    Raleigh tops the charts yet again as the #1 city in America. Highlights:

    1. Research Triangle, with Three Major Universities (Go Pack
    2. 12,512 Park Acres
    3. 110 Bars
    4. Thriving, growing economy.

    Needless to say, I miss this town.

    “Taking more than a dozen data points into account, Raleigh ranks as the best place to live in the U.S. The city sports a high number of bars, restaurants, and cultural institutions as well as a thriving social scene, great parks, and good schools. Raleigh shows the cultural graces that go along with anchoring the so-called research triangle, home to North Carolina State University, Duke University, and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Of course, it’s also much more. The city offers a great deal on nights and weekends, from concerts and opera to the 30,000-sq.-ft. State Farmer’s Market. The data backs it up. North Carolina’s state capitol is top in our book.”
