Provo named 2016’s 3rd Best-Run City in America by WalletHub.com

Provo was named 2016’s 3rd Best-Run City in America in a recent study from the leading personal finance outlet WalletHub.com. You can find the full study here: https://wallethub.com/edu/best-run-cities/22869/.

To identify the cities that are managed well by their leaders, WalletHub’s analysts compared 150 of the largest U.S. cities across six key dimensions, including financial stability, education, health, safety, economy as well as infrastructure and pollution. We then combined these categories to construct an “Overall City Services” ranking against which we measured the cities’ total per-capita budgets in order to reveal their budgeting efficiency.

Management of Provo (1=Best-Run; 75=Avg.)

• 10^th– Financial Stability
• 10^th – Education
• 65^th – Health
• 10^th – Safety
• 53^rd – Economy
• 3^rd– Total Budget per Capita
