Another week, another hug for Burlington from a national publication. This time, it’s Kiplinger’s Personal Finance magazine, which named the city in a feature titled “10 Best Cities for the Next Decade.” The Queen City is positioned at No. 8 in the countdown of towns on the forefront of job growth and innovation.

What won Burlington a place in the Top 10? Its sustainable food community. Church Street Marketplace, City Market/Onion River Co-Op and the Intervale Center were all named as localvore hubs worth relocating for.
