I Live in One of the Best Places to Start a Business

CNN Money offers a look at the best places to start a business (hat tip for bringing this article to my attention: My Two Dollars), and my current place of residence, Logan, UT, made the cut. Pretty cool, eh? Logan is not a large city, so it ranks #14 amongst small cities to start a business. This really floored me. I began my freelancing career, in earnest, when my husband and I moved to Logan just after I completed my M.A. at Syracuse University. We’re here while he gets his Ph.D., but we like it well enough that we might stay. And, even though I don’t interact much with the surrounding community in a business sense, I can see where Logan might be an attractive place to start a business.

It is worth noting that you shouldn’t believe everything you read, though. We have Utah State University here, which puts more experiments in space than any other school, and is a first-rate engineering school. Sadly, the writer thought it was the University of Utah. An understandable mistake, I suppose, but perhaps some fact checking is in order?

At any rate, it was exciting to see Logan on the list. If you are looking for a place to start a business, you might want to view the full list and get an idea of good places to go.
