In the my latest issue of Kiplingers I was astounded to find Sioux Falls, Sd no. 31 in the country on this list.
I was born in KC and lived there 25 years and can see why KC is a nice place to live. But the crime rate is really high, the KC,Mo. public schools are terrible
and there is too much driving there. But despite that they have a nice cost of living, a lot of beautful areas of the city, lower housing prices, etc. One could make a good case for them being top 10 although I can think of a lot better places than that.
But to put SF in the top 50 is laughable. They have bad weather, they have little ethnic and cultural diversity, , they don't have one quality art museum (old washington high school is no museum), they don't have a big boy airport. They weren't even smart enough to put one of the 2 state u's in their town but instead took that prison. I have heard some people in Omaha say they want to move to KC to get more big city amenities but I haven't heard anyone say they want to move to Sioux Falls for any reason. Sioux Falls has a lot of nice people there and is a clean place with no state income tax which is nice. But one has to remember that while SF doesn't have a state income tax a lot of that money comes from gambling. Tons of social problems in that city from people's out of control gambling. But I don't see how most reasonable people would say that it is 31st. Heck - a good job there pay 10 bucks an hour. My inlaws live in one of the more picturesque of areas of SF's near Mckennan Park and while nice it would not merit the kind of praise Kiplingers gives it. I think I am going to cancel my subscription.
*** Omaha should be on the list but we have too many people killing each other and our property taxes are ridiculously high.
