A while back, I mentioned I was reading the book Who’s Your City by Richard Florida. After finishing the book, I must say it was one of the most enjoyable books i’ve read in a long time. For those who have never heard of the book before, it is a book that describes how where we choose to live is one of the most important decisions in our life. The book mentions a ‘place finder’ on it’s website which helps individuals decide on what city is most ideal for them. The concept is very simple. Say, you have a short list of cities you are thinking of perhaps moving to. The place finder allows you to rate each city from 1 to 5 in 20 different categories including obvious criteria such as the job prospects and climate and less obvious ones such as leadership. Perhaps the only problem is you need to have done your research on each and every city you compare. Yet, it helps simplify what can be a very difficult decision. You an find the link to the Who’s Your City Place Finder below:
