More national publications have given high rankings to the Charlottesville area. Black Enterprise Magazine has rated Charlottesville as the 2nd Best Place to Retire. The ranking is based on healthcare, housing prices, public schools, crime levels, traffic congestion and commercial air access. Many of the 20 locations recognized by Black Enterprise Magazine are in the South due to the mild climate, but only Charlottesville and Virginia Beach, which was ranked #9, were chosen from Virginia. The Charlottesville area also has been ranked 13th in the Nation for Raising a Family by Forbes Magazine.
