New couples starting out in married life may find some locales have better chances for making it financially and offer more affordable housing. Destify, a destination wedding planning company, ranked the top cities in the country for newlyweds. They analyzed data from more than 300 cities and compared them across five metrics: median household income, median home value, number of newlyweds, cost of raising a child, and the number of restaurants and dining options available.
Pittsburgh and St. Louis took the top spots on the list. “Coupled with a reasonable median home value as well as overall affordability, both of these cities make for great places to settle for those who have just tied the knot,” Destify notes in its study.
