Indiana Suburb Tops 2017 Survey Of Best US Cities To Live In

If you have ever considered that plan, here is a city you might want to consider settling in:
Top Spot Goes to Fishers, Indiana

Money Magazine, in particular, considers job opportunities, the presence of good quality public schools, recreational amenities and a low crime rate as they rank which cities are good for living in and which are not. You might be surprised that some of the most livable cities are not big name cities, but it looks like you have to consider settling here if you are looking for a place that is ideal for raising kids and growing old in.
For this year, the top spot has been awarded to Fishers, Indiana. This suburb is a fast growing one as it boasts an 11.5 percent job growth projected until 2021. It has also a redeveloped downtown and some extensive infrastructure plans including an expansive waterfront park.
