Austin Ranks #39 as Fun Cities in 50 markets

Austin Business Journal reports that Austin ranks as # 39 under Fun Cities. Unsurprisingly, New York City tops the list of America's top fun places. That's because of the variety of recreation and entertainment available in the Big Apple. I know for a fact that my husband and I would escape our home (back then) in Long Island and spend our afternoons in the city, to dine and watch a musical on Broadway. Bizjournals has collected statistics and based on a bunch of factors, came up with this list.

With Austin's shopping, arts and musical background, golf, sailing/water recreation, I am surprised we didn't rank higher. But check out the first link above to see how we scored in several of their categories.
