Where's the best place to live and raise kids, and incidentally practice dentistry?
Factors involved in the selection of the "best place" to live and raise a family could be related to comparable criteria used in the selection of locations for a dental practitioner interest in providing care for children. A series of state and metropolitan area rankings, developed with voluntary and government agency reports, were reviewed to increase an understanding of the factors that may attract to a particular location (1) families with children and (2) pediatric dental practitioners.
