[QUOTE="TexasBred, post: 952940, member: 6897"] I think it is semantics. I think the stat is Huntsville has the most engineers and PHD per Capita for a metropolitan area. Nothing metropolitan about Los Alamos but New Mexico is a beautiful place. "In 2005, Forbes Magazine named the Huntsville-Decatur Combined Statistical Area as 6th best place in the nation for doing business, and number one in terms of the number of engineers per total employment. In 2006, Huntsville dropped to 14th; the prevalence of engineers was not considered in the 2006 ranking." Also if I am not mistaken the only County in North Alabama that votes Democrat nationally which I think was one of the previous posters problem with the area.[/quote] Still, when it comes to doctorates, small towns are the standouts. Looking at all metropolitan areas with populations of 50,000 or greater, Ithaca, N.Y. ranks No. 1. Home to Cornell University, a whopping 7.92 percent of residents hold Ph.D.s. Ames, Iowa, where Iowa State University is located, is second, at 7.2 percent. Other university towns round out the top five: In State College, Pa., the figure is 6.04 percent; for Corvallis, Ore., it’s 5.63 percent; and in College Station, Texas, it’s 5.14 percent. [/QUOTE]
