A city in South Carolina is among the best cities in the country to live in 2023, based on a new report comparing factors like economy, housing, safety, education and amenities.
Livability released its 2023 picks for the 100 best places to live in the U.S. However, major cities and smaller towns were not included on the list as the site only considered cities with a population between 75,000 and 500,000 because of large metropolitan cities like New York City and Los Angeles, both popular destinations with millions of residents, seeing "a significant exodus" of people moving away. Here's how the site determined its list:
"We partnered with Applied Geographic Solutions (AGS) to select our Top 100 Best Places To Live in the U.S. in 2023. Together we curated our cities based on nearly 100 data points and an algorithm taking into account measures of a city's economy, housing and cost of living, amenities, transportation, environment, safety, education and health."
One South Carolina city was chosen as some of the best places to live in the country: Charleston. Here's what the site had to say:
"Charleston embraces Southern charm. Known for its cobblestone streets and culinary scene, the city captivates with its blend of creative culture and coastal living. History comes alive and Southern hospitality thrives here."
