There are a lot of factors to think about when deciding where to raise a family. The standard of public education in the region, levels of crime and safety, cost of housing, and employment opportunities are just a few of the variables that could affect your choice. Although you may place more weight on some factors than others, some cities rank highly in the majority of categories, and these may be better suited to your family’s needs.
In light of this, take a look at this list of the top cities for families in 2024, which is based on rankings from Niche, a website that examines information about American neighborhoods and schools:
Families seeking a well-rounded community not too far from a major city, in this case Chicago, will find that Naperville offers an excellent choice with an A+ rating from Niche for public schools, health and fitness, and jobs, and an A- rating for housing. Additionally, Library Journal ranks Naperville’s public library as the best in its spending category.
The Woodlands, located in the Houston metropolitan area, comes in second on this list. Both the jobs category on Niche and public school rankings for The Woodlands are A+. According to The Woodlands Convention and Visitors Bureau, the city has 150 parks and over 220 miles of trails. Because of its B+ weather rating, residents have plenty of opportunities to enjoy these amenities.
Arlington, which is just outside of Washington, D.C., scored highly on Niche in several areas, including public school quality (A+), diversity, and commute time (A). It also scored an A for outdoor activities and an A+ for health and fitness. Arlington was named America’s Fittest City in 2023 by the American College of Sports Medicine, so this is hardly surprising.
Columbia is another excellent area close to the nation’s capital for raising a family. Niche has awarded the city an A rating for diversity, public schools, outdoor activities, and health and fitness. Founded in 1967, Columbia was among the first planned communities in the United States and is still a wonderful place to raise a family.
Cambridge, which is home to prestigious universities like Harvard, is an excellent family destination. It has an A+ rating from Niche in several categories, such as commute, outdoor activities, and health and fitness. It was given a C- for cost of living and a C+ for housing, nevertheless. According to Redfin, the median sale price in Cambridge is more than $1 million, making homeownership there expensive. Therefore, you’ll need to compare these expenses to things like having access to public transportation and cultural opportunities nearby.
