Best place to live and fly?

I vote for Iowa City!

This just in:

"'Kiplinger's Personal Finance' ranked Iowa City 10th in its top 50
'Smart Places to Live' list. The rankings are based on cost of living,
homes, crime, health care, climate, environment and education."

Because you prefer the climate in the Twin Cities?
When I was there it was my understanding that corporations like Control Data
and 3M were having a hard time maintaining their HQ there, because top
engineers and execs didn't want any part of -40 degree winters. ;-)

Seriously, it's long been a contender on the various "best places" lists,
considered to have a higher than average cultural appeal for its size, but I
thought it had lost some ground in recent years, and was not making the "top
ten" lists any more. Guess I'm proven wrong.

High points on the Twin Cities list : the Minnesota Orchestra, much higher
standing than a city of that size would normally boast, and (at least some
years ago - may have changed now) the ultra high-end supermarkets, Byerly's and
Lunds!! Don't find that on the East coast!

Damned winters are too cold and too long.

Not too many hurricanes, though.

Didn't you have a little breeze a couple of weeks ago?

Hi Jay,

Sorry, Boise is better... better weather and more open spaces...

Just please don't move here. We have too many coming here already!
