According to Business Week's second annual roundup of the best places to raise your kids, Arcadia, California is one of the country's best! OnBoard Informatics, a New York-based provider of real estate analysis, seleced towns with at least 50,000 residents and a median family income between $40k and $100k. Then Business Week weighted the criteria: school performance; number of schools, household expenditures; crime rates; air quality; job growth; family income; museums; parks, theatres, other amenities; and diversity. Arcadia, with a poplulation of 56,394 has a median income of $81,417. Our city is located about 20 miles from downtown Los Angeles, and has some of the best schools in California. Arcadia is also home to the Santa Anita Park racetrack and the Los Angeles County ARboretum and Botanic Garden. Peacocks now live in the neighborhood near the arboretum where they walk on lawns or cross the street. So hurray for Arcadia ! Runners-up: Diamond Bar
