Posted May 1, 08 8:29 PM CDT in Arts & Living 

(Newser) – Cheesesteaks aren’t the only things luring young people to the City of Brotherly Love, MSNBC reports. A survey by Apartments.com and Careerbuilder that factors in the cost of apartments, job opportunities, and the number of 20-somethings, puts Philadelphia—$962 for a one-bedroom compared with $1,520 in NYC— atop its list. The rest of the top 10:

  1. Boston
  2. New York
  3. Phoenix
  4. Chicago
  5. Dallas-Fort Worth
  6. Los Angeles
  7. Houston
  8. Detroit
  9. Atlanta
