Just this week we had a post about how many "Best" lists Madison, Wisconsin has made over the past few years.  Today more Wisconsin cities make a top 10 best list in Forbes’ "Best small cities to raise a family" as seen in Yahoo real estate.

Cities with a population under 100,000 were ranked on such things as commute times, average income, good educational prospects, low costs and high rates of homeownership as well as housing affordability.

The results:

1. Dubuque, IA

3. Marquette, MI

4. Midland, MI

5. Marshfield, WI

6. Stevens Point, WI

7. Casper, WY
