Indianapolis is a great place to live, says U.S. News & World Report.  Home to one of the world’s largest children’s museums, as well as professional and college sports teams and miles of recreational trails, the Circle City has plenty to keep locals entertained.

The city’s lively downtown is easily walkable. With so many things to do, Indianapolis allows its residents to experience big-city living without too much effort.

Sports in general play a huge role in the region’s economy. By hosting other major sporting events, like NCAA tournaments and the 2012 Super Bowl, Indianapolis has benefited in the multimillion-dollar range from increased business opportunities, job creation and more taxes going directly to the metro area.

The median home price for a house is about $173,000 and monthly rent is about $860.

Omaha has long been a place of convergence, according to U. S. News & World Report.  In the mid-1800s, it served as the easternmost point of the first transcontinental railroad. Today, its location at the heart of the country has earned Omaha a reputation as a flyover city. But those who live in Omaha know there’s more to this metro area than most outsiders realize.

It’s a region that celebrates and treasures the past, while also warmly embracing change and growth. The metro area that once brought you TV dinners and Reuben sandwiches now houses fancy seafood restaurants and hip vegan options (though you’ll never have trouble finding a hearty steak).

And while ranchers continue to raise cattle on the sprawling prairies surrounding the region, Omaha proper has begun to attract a number of budding new tech startups. Affordability and a strong economy attract young professionals, while safety, a plethora of education options and family-friendly activities are appealing to those with kids.
