Olympia, WA - A great place to live and the rankings prove it.

The national recognition is starting to pile up for Olympia, the unpretentious capitol city of Washington.

The latest recognition came from the American Public Transportation Association, which awarded Olympia with the prize for best transit system for its size in the nation.

This came on top of Olympia's ranking by Kiplinger's Personal Finance Magazine as the sixth Best City in the Nation.

In 2008 Forbes ranked Olympia #8 on their Best Places for Business and Careers list.

Olympia's Evergreen State College is listed among the "best Buy Schools" in the 2010 edition of the Fiske Guide to Colleges, and Readers Digest has named Olympia's annual Procession of the Species as the top of its "can't resist" parades and processions list.

The most significant nod comes from Sperling's Best Places to Live, which ranked Olympia as the safest mid sized city in the nation, not just once, but these past two years in a row.

I'd like to award Olympia with my own personal recognition, naming it the most beautiful mid sized city in the nation.

What other city can compete with this?
