Forbes comes out with various rankings every week, which makes me think they don’t spend a lot of effort on each one.

I’ve seen some pretty crazy Forbes rankings, e.g., best college sports towns, where they had Palo Alto in the top 10, and didn’t include Columbus. I grew up in Columbus and live about 30 minutes from Stanford. I’d put Columbus in the top 5, and Palo Alto down around 100. Forbes also had a top 10 most beautiful cities in the world ranking, which included New York City, Tokyo, and London Those are fascinating and fun cities, but beautiful they are not. I figure they were included to make many of Forbes’ readers feel good.
