Forbes released this year's Best Places for Business and Careers with Raleigh, NC and Durham, NC both making the top 10. Raleigh, NC came in a #2 and Durham, NC came in at #8 according to the list for Best Metros. The home town of my alma mater (Las Cruces, NM) came in as #2 on the Best Smaller Metros list.
I find it very interesting (and odd) that of all places, Albuquerque, NM came in as #1 on the list. It must be attributed to the fact that it was rated #1 for Cost of Doing Business.

That was a pretty unorthodox list of the “best places for business and careers.” I mean, when you think of moving someplace to give your career a boost, I’m sure Albuquerque and Fayetteville aren’t the metros that immediately come to mind. Very interesting, though. Thanks for the post.
Haha, my thoughts exactly, panasianbiz. Thanks for visiting!
