What is the best city in the USA for business?

[James Lavud]

if I opened my store, I was guided by the following criteria.

- a strong community of existing small businesses;
- low living costs, specifically for self-employed people;
- a well-educated workforce 
- low unemployment rates, indicating a healthy local economy.

Based on these criteria, I would choose Oklahoma City

Metro area population: 1.3 million

Number of small businesses per 10,000 people: 148

Cost of living for self-employed: 10.1% below U.S. average

Percentage of population with bachelor's degrees: 27.9%

Unemployment rate: 4.2%

I'm sure that the best city is where it's safe. It's safe to live. It's safe to do business.
