I was born and raised in Springfield and now I am living in New Orleans with my family of soon to be 6 and would much rather be raising my family in Springfield than New Orleans! I was very surprised to see Springfield on the list!emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17322607629392395954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7112688594117380057.post-17559444516678095032008-07-31T17:44:00.000-05:002008-07-31T17:44:00.000-05:00My husband grew up in #30, me in #68.

I don't think I'll tell them I live in #60!

Bch was on the list. I grew up here, and am now raising my kids here. The cool thing is that there is so much to do because the beach, city, mountains, etc are all onyla few hours away. And of course, it's nice to always have things going on both at the beach and in the harbor. However, one thing that I have always craved for my kids is to enjoy a specific "flavor" of their hometown. Many times, there is so much built for tourists, that the locals are left needing fewer bars and more art stores galleries, and small business support. Very interesting!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7112688594117380057.post-55942860928475923252008-07-17T23:55:00.000-05:002008-07-17T23:55:00.000-05:00I don't know... home is where the heart is!I don't know... home is where the heart is!Deanna https://www.blogger.com/profile/14114652107363722177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7112688594117380057.post-64698387825606058952008-07-17T23:18:00.000-05:002008-07-17T23:18:00.000-05:00A couple of the cities on that list surprised me. ...A couple of the cities on that list surprised me. Thanks for posting about it though, it's definitely food for thought. I definitely think the house you grow up in those towns has a pretty huge factor too.Mom IsAmagpiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15758888003307970015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7112688594117380057.post-26717303048954184142008-07-17T02:30:00.000-05:002008-07-17T02:30:00.000-05:00Honolulu may look good on the outside but it's a r...Honolulu may look good on the outside but it's a rough place for kids to grow up - especially if they're white...

My husband grew up in Dayton, OH (in the bottom 10) and loved it. Plenty of culture, small-city feel, near bigger cities, etc. We've talked about having to move to the Detroit area or worse, Flint (shudder to think of the housing market there, and the violent crime rate, eek!), so I'm not so surprised to see those down there...<BR/>Hope you're well!Amanda @ www.kiddio.orghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13102052872110352811noreply@blogger.com
