Zippia analyzed thousands of small towns across America to determine “where it’s all rainbows and sunshine.”

From STL Today –

When it comes to finding your happy place, a small town and a short drive are crucial. And money doesn’t hurt, either.

So what could be happier than Frontenac, which sits at No. 1 on the “These are the Happiest Towns in Amerca.” For good metropolitan measure, Glendale checks in at No. 3 on the happy list.

From Zippia –

There’s a search that we are all on that dwarfs our job or career search — the search for happiness.

And as we all know, where we live and the job we have can all play a big part in our overall sense of contentment and happiness. For that reason, we took a dive into the most recent census data to help you identify which places in the United States have the biggest smile of them all.

On our happy data journey, we settled on seven criteria to help determine which U.S. places are the happiest. The criteria include things like having insurance, owning a home, and having a job.

As it turns out, life is all rainbows and butterflies in Frontenac, Missouri, the happiest place in America.
