Fargo has been chosen as the third-best city in the nation to raise children, according to a story published in Children’s Health magazine.

The story published Tuesday ranked the top 100 cities in which to raise kids, with Burlington, Vt., named as the best and Madison, Wis., named second.

Other regional cities included St. Paul at No. 12 and Minneapolis at No. 18.

The writers said they used more than 30 factors, including crime and safety, education, economics, housing, cultural attractions and health, to rank the cities.
