Rebuilding Place in the Urban Space

"A community’s physical form, rather than its land uses, is its most intrinsic and enduring characteristic." [Katz, EPA] This blog focuses on place and placemaking and all that makes it work--historic preservation, urban design, transportation, asset-based community development, arts & cultural development, commercial district revitalization, tourism & destination development, and quality of life advocacy--along with doses of civic engagement and good governance watchdogging.

Best Cities for Every Stage of Life

is a special report from Kiplinger Personal Finance Magazine. See:

Best Cities for Singles
Best Cities for Mid-Level Professionals
Best Cities for Married with Kids
Empty-Nesters
Best Cities for Retirees

One of the features is a survey tool, "Which City Is Best for You?." Here is what the survey said for me:

Madison, WI
Other high-ranking cities:
2) Bridgeport-Stamford-Norwalk, CT
3) Trenton-Ewing, NJ
4) Des Moines, IA
5) Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV

DC was picked number one for younger singles. And they featured this photo of Adams-Morgan, from the Washington Convention and Tourism Corporation.
