10 Best US Cities to Live In
6. Arlington, Virginia
In the eyes of some, a higher-than-average cost of living could be the only downside to living in Arlington. In every other respect, the city earns high marks all the way. An incredibly low unemployment rate of just 2.8 percent, and a crime rate more favorable than that of 99.6 percent of the country make Arlington a place where you are highly unlikely to live in poverty or find yourself the victim of a violent crime. Arlington also rates highly across the board for infrastructure, housing, and education. Most of the year, the weather is good, as well. The proximity to the nation’s capital, with its historical landmarks, government jobs, and cultural amenities, is also a plus for many.
