We've finally arrived as a city! I'm raising my kids in #Denver #Colorado, "ranked as the nation’s WORST city to raise a #family, according to a Scholaroo report."
Shout out to our community leaders, politicians, and the voters who keep electing the same people as the city declines.
You've got this.
But there's still more work to do. Denver was the worst in the final scoring, but wasn't the worst in any given category. We can progress even lower!
"The firm of college scholarship analysts crunched each city’s child-friendliness based on seven metrics: safety, health care, finances, education, leisure, quality of life and home atmosphere.
They used public crime, schooling, household finance, infrastructure, amenities and health care to track and score each city."
