"Top-Performing Cities: Colorado, Idaho, Philadelphia, Raleigh, and Seattle Lead the Way"

Five Colorado cities, including Colorado Springs and Denver, have been named among the top 100 best-performing large cities in the U.S. according to a new study by the Milken Institute. The study considered factors such as job growth, affordable housing, and high-tech industries. While Denver ranks high overall, it lags in housing affordability and short-term job growth. Other Colorado cities like Fort Collins, Boulder, and Greeley also made the list, with most showing an increase in rank compared to the previous year.
