In these 60 small towns, medium-sized cities and larger metro regions, you can live well and your dollar will go far. Of course, the "live well" half our claim is shot through with subjectivity. It will be highly dependent on who you are, and what you want out of life.

There are plenty of folks who will steadfastly refuse to suffer even one more day of subfreezing temperatures —period, end of story.
