	160 - Want a Balanced Life? Look No Further Than These Locations	02 Feb 2023	00:20:58
A good work ethic is a timeless principle, but the all-work-no-play mentality of the Boomer and Gen X generations is going out of style. Millennials and Gen Z find more value in a healthy work/life balance that prioritizes mental health and personal values. Well, David Sidoni did some research (as he loves to do) and found studies that highlight the best places to live if you’re looking for a balanced and happy life in 2023. Looking at mental health, income, remote working prevalence, commute times, and health insurance, Midwest cities DOMINATED the lists for the best balances of these factors. Also, these cities had more affordable housing options for first-time buyers. Hmm… definitely worth thinking about. The top 10 cities had some of the shortest commute times, best air quality, best insurance coverages, a variety of recreation options, great affordability scores, and high mental health rankings.
