We're #1!

Eden Prairie is ranked number 1 on MONEY magazine’s 2010 list of the 100 “Best Places to Live” in America!

The rankings were announced Monday, July 12 on NBC’s TODAY Show and Eden Prairie landed higher on the list than any other city.

Every two years, the editors of MONEY magazine start with a full list of cities with populations of 50,000 to 300,000. After several months spent researching economics and quality of life, the list is narrowed to a group of finalists, which are visited by the MONEY team. These visits allow the team to interview residents, community leaders and local officials before compiling the final “Best Places to Live” rankings.

The City of Eden Prairie has consistently been ranked in the top 100 “Best Places to Live” in America since 2006.
