Naples earned a top score of five for its recreational activities
and
retail services and low scores in the cost of living and transportation.
According to Bland, when he visited Naples two years ago, the current
public
transportation system was not yet running, contributing to his low
transportation ranking.

Halifax could have rated higher except for the climate and crime???
Seems some people don't like the "severe four season weather" and as for

But climate and crime affects *everybody* who lives there. High prices and
lack of public transportation are non-issues for someone who already lives
in Naples, and never takes public transportation.
