The Best Places to Live. Whatever!

Just like every copy of Men's Fitness, Men's Journal, Details, Esquire, etc., CNN Money has published their guide to the 'The Best Places to Live' for 2007. It seems like CNN only gets the news right 50% of the time, so I'm betting that their list is garbage.

Let's take a look at their list and see where the hell CNN thinks I should live.

*Note - I became so aggravated that I had to cut the list of places in half, so I'll only be writing about 5 cities.

1. Middleton, WI - Middleton, Wisconsin USED to be a great place to live until CNN published their list and then a bunch of assholes from California moved there. I'm sure the residents of Middleton are petrified. Thanks a lot CNN.

2. Hanover, NH - The 2000 Census puts Hanover's population at 10,850. Sounds like a nice small town, right? Well, how about the 30 cemeteries in Hanover? 0.00276497696 cemeteries per person is a startling figure.

3. Louisville, CO - From Wikipedia
"From the time of Colorado's first strike in 1883 there were frequent labor strikes in Louisville, and the town was frequently placed under martial law. Mercenaries were hired by mining companies to spray machine gun fire across the line of thirteen saloons on Front Street, while the town's residents hid in their basements and tunnels."
How do we know that this wont happen again, Louisville?

4. Lake Mary, FL - Here are just a couple of quick news headlines from Lake Mary, FL:
- 7 Year Old Boy Takes Car on Joy Ride.
- Thieves Targeting High Priced Homes.
- Deputy Accused of Exposing Self.
Please. This place is obviously riddled with crime.

5. Claremont, CA - This is a city in Eastern Los Angeles, only 30 miles east of 'Downtown L.A.' Need I continue?

I think that I've just about had it with magazines and websites telling me where I should live.

About me

    Is there a Housing Bubble? Is Real Estate still a safe investment?
    I don't have these answers, but I do have a whole lot of evidence that realtors are resorting to 'unusual' tactics to drum up business.
