Plano, TX

Besides being one of the most wealthiest cities in the US, Plano is home to numerous top companies, making it a popular spot for business travelers to the area. Its closeness to Dallas, Fort Worth, and Arlington makes it perfect for a vacation, as well, with plenty of entertainment within reach, including the Six Flags Over Texas park to Southfork Ranch.

You also shouldn’t miss Plano’s annual Balloon Festival, which draws visitors from all over the country. But most importantly, Plano offers a safe environment for its residents.

The city’s rate is 65% lower than Texas’ and 61% lower than the country’s average, allowing locals to enjoy the Texas sunshine without fear of assault. With its many tempting targets, Plano’s property crime rate is 37% lower than the Texas average.

    Bellevue, Washington is a bedroom community of Seattle and, as such, is NOT a small town!

    Bellevue is filled with many wealthy people so, if you’re of modest means, don’t plan on moving there.

    I don’t like Bellevue . . . .

    Small town! Not! The one I’m from has no stop light and there’s a flea market every Thursday, May through September. There are other small towns around and each has a festival in the summer.

    Where do you get that a town with over 100,000 people is a small town? I live in a town with 5,900 people. Now, that is a small town.

    What about Ferndale, CA?
    It is the best small town in Northern CA!
