UPDATE: Check out our new 2023 Best Cities to Live in the U.S. list.
#28. Overland Park
A suburb of Kansas City, Overland Park is both a great place to start a business and a great place to work. In fact, it’s been ranked on our Top 100 Best Places to Live three years and running. It stands out from the rest in that small business owners seem to have an easier time getting loans there, as the city ranks in the top 5 for small business loans. There also seem to be a lot of jobs, as Overland Park has one of the 10 lowest unemployment rates on this list. With the best high speed internet you can get (a top score in this area), it seems like the perfect place to start small and grow big.
