Kiplinger.com calls Omaha the best U.S. city to raise kids
Omaha has been named the best city to raise kids in a new Kiplinger.com ranking.
The personal finance website's list is based on a combination of factors. Kiplinger looked for cities with great schools, lots of libraries and parks and a low cost of living relative to household income. Crime rates were also included.
The website says the Millard neighborhood of southwest Omaha is an especially good place for families because of the strong schools and safe streets.
Omaha was also praised for the quality of its zoo, children's museum and other family friendly amenities.
