How does Coral Springs match up against other Florida cities in regards to the best places to live in the Sunshine State?
U.S. News & World Report has an answer.
The news, rankings and analysis source takes five core metrics into account when ranking cities. Consumers frequently use the publication to help decide where they might want to move to. The site is also known for its college and hospital listings.
Experts used those five metrics to calculate the scores for 81 cities across Florida.
Parkland placed first in the state, scoring a 6.4.
Coral Springs ranked 46th with 5.4 points, also below neighboring Tamarac, which was 37th with a score of 5.6.
Why the low score? According to the report, Coral Springs “offers a lower value than similarly sized cities when you compare housing costs to median household income,” as well as a longer-than-average commute.
However, the city did earn points for having a healthier-than-average job market, with a higher median household income and lower unemployment than comparable metro areas.
