10 Top Tens Introduction

Everybody loves a good ranking. That must be what it is because we still get comments about the 10 Top Tens edition that we published for our 10th anniversary edition almost two years ago. We've had site searchers and economic developers alike ask why we don't do a 10 Top Tens section each year. Well, ask, and you shall receive. Here is our second 10 Top Tens edition, however, unlike the first where we based our ten top 10 categories over the course of 10 years, this one will look back at the past year or so.

Since this section seems to be so popular, we have moved back our Rural American South edition to the fall of each year. The SB&D 100 edition remains in the spring issue and our Business Climate section will remain in the summer.
