REALTOR Magazine recently published this article from Credit Donkey.com:
CreditDonkey.com conducted a study identifying the top 10 smartest cities in America, and the results may surprise you.
To determine the results, Credit Donkey used U.S. Census data to find the statistical average of residents with bachelor's degrees in each metropolitan area (it's 26% nationally). Then, the site counted how many Mensa chapters there are in the city's state and took a look at the city's rate of property crimes — which Credit Donkey deems "generally unintelligent behavior."
These are the top 10 SMARTEST CITIES in America:
1. San Jose, Calif.
Population with bachelor’s degree or higher: 45.7%
Mensa chapters in state: 10
Property crimes per 100,000 people: 2,603
2. Boston
Population with bachelor’s degree or higher: 43%
Mensa chapters in state: 5
Property crimes per 100,000 people: 1,984
3. San Diego
Population with bachelor’s degree or higher: 34.1%
Mensa chapters in state: 10
Property crimes per 100,000 people: 2,197
4. Raleigh, N.C.
