Raleigh keeps getting positive attention in the news! In addition to the great rankings we noted recently, Raleigh has received several favorable reviews by bizjournals.com.
Raleigh was ranked #1 in "metros offering the best opportunities for young professionals". The study looked at markets that offered the best prospects for people in the 18-34 age range and looked at growth, income levels and education to range the countries 67 largest metros.
Raleigh was also the only city in the top 10 in three categories: population growth, job growth and the percentage of young adults with college degree. It was also noted Raleigh also enjoys a relatively low cost of living which is helpful to those starting their careers. Raleigh was also ranked #8 in the "smartest metros" list. The area is one of only eight metros where at least 40% of adults hold at least a bachelors degree.
Why is this important? According to bizjournals.com studies these factors have a large impact on the economic vitality and prosperity of a region. Hopefully Raleigh and the rest of the Research Triangle Park area will continue to grow and be a great place to live for many years.
