Here's the link to the BudgetTravel.com survey: America's Coolest Small Town

Per the BudgetTravel.com website – First, the town must have a population under 10,000—we're talking small towns, not big cities. It's also got to be on the upswing, a place that's beginning to draw attention—and new residents—because of the quality of life, arts and restaurant scene, or proximity to nature. And cool doesn't mean quaint. We want towns with an edge, so think avant-garde galleries, not country stores.

And you must be able to address / answer the following five questions:

1. Is there a restaurant that's so amazing it could survive in New York?
2. Where do locals shop for unique clothing, furniture, art, or gifts?
3. Is there a local mascot?
4. What's the weirdest piece of local folklore?
5. Anything else that qualifies as "cool" (i.e. organic coffee shops, wine bars, a hotel in a renovated barn or warehouse)?

BTW – BudgetTravel.com is the website for Budget Travel magazine. Arthur Frommer's Budget Travel magazine is published monthly except for combined issues in December/January and July/August by Newsweek Budget Travel.
