Inc. Magazine Lists Top Cities To Do Business

Inc. Magazine has released its annual lists of the top cities in which to do business. There is a top twenty list for large, midsize and small sized cities.

In the large city category (employment base of 450,000 and more), two California cities make the list: the Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario area at number 5, and Sacramento at number 15. Both of these areas are homes to Enterprise Zones.

In the midsize category (employment base of 150,000 to 449,000) there is only one representative from California: Bakersfield at number 11. Bakersfield was home to an Enterprise until last year when it expired.

No California cities made it into the top twenty small cities (employment base of under 150,000).
