Springfield One of Ten Best Cities
Springfield broke into the top
ten of America’s Best Places to Live and
Work, as determined by Employment Review. Springfield’s "thriving economy,
first rate education and superior health care" put it at number nine on the list. "It
may have one of the most common city names in America, but Springfield. . . is
a well-kept secret just waiting to be discovered," the review stated. Also considered
were unemployment rate, projected job growth and cost of living.The group also
called Springfield "the cultural center of the Ozarks." It concludes, "Although
it is not as big as other cities on this list, Springfield manages to hold its
own."
