Triangle rated best place to live and work

Employment Review
June 2003

It should not come as a surprise that Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill has earned the No. 1 spot on our list of best places to live and work for the second year in a row. This is a place that 1.2 million people are content to call home, and for so many good reasons. The area offers a great quality of life, a low crime rate, affordable housing, top-notch educational institutions, some of the best healthcare facilities in the world, a diverse industry base, and an environment in which it is ideal to raise a family. What more could anyone ask for?

Madison, Wis. (No. 2), Austin, Texas (No. 3), Huntsville, Ala., (No. 4) and Atlanta (No. 5) rounded out the magazine's top five. The list was published in the June 2003 issue of the magazine.
