The cover of this August’s Entrepreneur magazine boldly promotes the feature story “The 10 Best Cities to Start a Business” along with the first answer:

Yep, making the grade this year are Las Vegas, Portland, Orlando, San Diego, Phoenix, Chapel Hill, Atlanta, Madison, Austin, and the one that naturally comes to mind first, Youngstown, Ohio.
The factors the magazine cited in ranking Youngstown so high: a dynamic congressman, and energetic young mayor, exciting and thriving tech ventures like YBI portfolio company Turning Technologies, and the Youngstown Business Incubator itself.
Yeah, we’ll take it.
And they even spelled our name right.
Cossler understands the enormous leverage that can come from open networks.
