sixth-best US city

can you believe it? it's our own virginia beach.
Money magazine has named Virginia Beach the sixth -best 'big city' in the country ... In ranking the nation's largest cities, the magazine looked at weather, education, crime, air quality, purchasing power and such things as the number of restaurants, golf courses, museums and movie theaters. Described in the magazine's August issue as 'an up-and-coming military town,' Virginia Beach scored best in the safety category, which looked at violent crime, and education, based on student test scores, said Tara Kalwarski, the magazine's special projects editor.
54.65% of pilot readers did not agree with the rankings in their web poll. i wonder if they thought it should have a higher or lower ranking.
