Ten Cleanest Cities in the US

Posted by Miss Cellania in Travel & Places on March 20, 2008 at 11:31 am


150_cleancitiesForbes’ list of America’s Cleanest Cities is out, and Miami ranks at #1. You can only find out all top ten by watching a slideshow, so I’m listing them for you:

1. Miami, Florida
2. Seattle, Washington
3. Jacksonville, Florida
4. Orlando, Florida
5. Portland, Oregon
6. San Francisco, California
7. Oklahoma City, Oklahoma
8. Tampa-St. Petersburg, Florida
9. Minneapolis-St. Paul, Minnesota
10. San Jose-Sunnyvale, California

Florida cities are helped by prevailing winds that blow away smog. Link -via Geek Like Me

    ok I can understand Sunnyvale (even if their water is…..slightly toxic)

    but San Fransisco!? Parts of that town are nice but other parts are….a toilet!

    Thank you for publishing the list. While I love Forbes “Top Ten Cities” lists I can’t stand going through the slide show.

    Keep up the fantastic work.

    Funny, I automatically assumed it was a list of cleanest in terms of litter and other such things.

    Seattle may be clean, but it’s covered in moss. And if you let the moss get too thick, ferns start growing in it. And then the ivy covers everything and you forget what color your house is. I basically have a sod roof now.

    The only city on the list that I have lived in is Orlando. It was clean. But, wow, the palmeto bugs (a.k.a. cockroaches)!!! I almost wound up paying a pet deposit for one in my apartment because it was over 20 pounds.

    San Francisco is one of the top 10 cleanest cities in America??? Wha? Last time I was in SF there was condoms, stickers, and graffiti everywhere! Did they go to China Town when they were making this deliberation?
