Modesto is 7th Most Fun City in California
By Chris Murphy
We love good news at ModestoView and this is really good news.
Our friends who read ModestoView know about all the good things that are going on here in town and we have the inside scoop.
Finally, there are some statistics out there that now “Prove” that we really are a fun city.
A group called WalletHub has analyzed a variety of factors and weighted them on importance. Elements like number of Bowling alleys, dance clubs, parks per capita, average cost for a movie, walkable park access, performing arts venues, number of fitness centers and many more were tabulated to get the rankings.
So as a result, Modesto ranked 7th in California and 68th in the nation. There were three main categories: 1) Entertainment 2) Nightlife&Parties 3) Costs
These were all compiled and they hit the sort button and Modesto came out near the top.
Our ModestoView reading friends know this and now the rest of the people know this.
Please share this article and information so you too can spread the good word about our community.
