During the past 25 years at different intervals, Partners has honored communities with the title, "America's Most Livable" for their efforts to improve the livability of their communities by addressing such issues as smart growth, using a community's assets for economic and community development, innovative leadership strategies, undertaking programs for youth at risk and regional collaboration, just to name a few.

Partners' thirty years of experience have shaped its reputation as a leading expert in the livable communities movement. In creating this "Most Livable Communities" list, Partners is helping cities to brand themselves as the best, by bestowing our 'seal of approval' on this exclusive roster. These have set a shining example of what cities should strive for throughout the United States and the world.
