Diamond Bar Named Among “Best Towns for Families”

This month, Family Circle magazine unveiled its “10 Best Towns for Families.” And it’s not a surprise that the City of Diamond Bar made the list – the first of its kind for the national magazine.

Featured in the August issue, the 10 Best Towns for Families article shares the results of the magazine’s quest to identify “the best communities across the country that combine big-city opportunities with suburban charm” and “an ideal blend of affordable houses, low crime rate, top-rated schools, wide-open spaces and a lot less stress.”

As many residents will agree, the results of Family Circle’s investigation describe Diamond Bar perfectly. If you were to ask your neighbors why they moved to Diamond Bar, most would probably cite the community’s high quality schools and family f r i e n d l i n e s s .

Congratulations to all Diamond Bar residents for their commitment and hard work to their families and community. To come up with its 10 Best Towns for Families, Family Circle partnered with On Board, a New York City research firm providing real estate and demographic data, to assemble a list of 1,850 places with populations between 15,000 and 150,000
and a high concentration of households with an average income of $65,000. That list was
pared to 800 based on criteria such as cost of living, jobs, schools, green space and crime rate. Family Circle assessed which towns best met those standards and ranked them according to state. The winners were selected from the highest-rated towns in the top 10 states nationwide. For more information visit www.familycircle.com.
