The 10 Most Creative Mid-Sized Cities in America By Movoto Real Estate
Fort Collins has made another best-of list; this time it's number-six on Movoto Real Estate's list of the most creative mid-sized cities in America!

You can see what Movoto had to say about Fort Collins and all ten cities in the embedded slideshow above. Apparently, we can thank our multiple book stores, art supply stores and positive Yelp reviews for this win.

To create this list they looked at the second-100-most populated cities in the country and used these seven measurements:

• Art supply stores per capita
• Musical instruments stores and teachers per capita
• Galleries per capita
• Art schools per capita
• Bookstores per capita
• Colleges/universities per capita
• Theaters per capita

The ten cities that made their list?

1. Salt Lake City, UT
2. Pasadena, CA
3. Richmond, VA
4. Dayton, OH
5. Torrance, CA
6. Fort Collins, CO
7. Columbia, SC
8. Eugene, OR
9. Knoxville, TN
10. Tempe, AZ

Of the 100 cities they looked at, which one came in last place? Poor little Port St. Lucie, Florida.
