CNBC publishes its 10 Best Quality of Life Cities, noting "none are in Florida"

CNBC has its list of 10 Best Quality of Life Cities in the US here. They do note that Florida doesn’t make the list — the kicker is at the end of this. Let me give you the criteria:

Cities were ranked based on the following factors:

• Crime Rates
• Quality of Education
• Well-being
• Commuter Index
• Quality and availability of healthcare
• Air quality index
• Federal Emergency Management Agency

The list is:

10 best U.S. cities for quality of life

1. Ann Arbor, Mich.
2. Boulder, Colo.
3. Madison, Wis.
4. San Jose, Calif.
5. Portland, Maine
6. Boston, Mass.
7. Green Bay, Wis.
8. Hartford, Conn.
9. Rochester, N.Y.
10. Trenton, N.J.

They only describe Ann Arbor and Boulder — in both cities Gen Z accounts for over 32% of the population. They are effusive about the public parks.

They do forget to note that not a single one of these cities is in a red state, not a one. Quelle surprise!

Who could guess that living in a blue state was better for your quality of life?
