Top Cities for Working Moms

For the past two years, ForbesWoman has collected information and decided on a list of the best places for working mothers to live. Every woman has a different perception on what an ideal city would be, so Forbes considers several different factors when creating the list. Safety, health care, schools, job opportunities, budget-friendly cost of living and unemployment rate are all taken into consideration. The top cities for working moms are:

1. Minneapolis, MN- Minneapolis has the lowest violent crime rate which means murder, rape, robberies and assaults are low in this city.


2. Washington, D.C,- This is because women's earnings are the highest in this city and unemployment rate is the lowest as well as an excellent school system.


Some of the lowest ranked cities for working moms continue to be Las Vegas because of it's high unemployment rate, the low number of practicing pediatricians and the high crime rate. And several Florida cities including Orlando, Jacksonville and Miami remain at the bottom of the list due to the fact that less is spent per pupil on education and crime is more prevalent.
