Business Insider has named the Fort Collins - Loveland area as #5 on its annual list of happiest and healthiest cities. Boulder came in at #2 just behind Lincoln, Nebraska. Others on the list include; Burlington, Vermont; Honolulu, HI; and Provo - Orem, UT.

The list is compiled from information collected from over 300,000 adults across the country, and the Gallup Well-Being Index is cited as their source.

The list doesn't name specific reasons why Fort Collins and Loveland were chosen by the survey participants, but it is likely because of the usual suspects; economy, recreation, weather, education and culture.
