I wouldn't say they're bogus. Every study is ranking on different criteria. So they're all going to have different results.
The thing is, half the time they don't even state the criteria. Those lists serve the sole purpose of making money - both via clicks, and via the towns/cities on this list.
I'm still left wondering how much they paid for that Tutu installment?
Or how that scooted in with the approval for the sculptures...I really hope that after "Oak Leaf Shade Bench" and "Memory Bomb" they looked at the project budget and said, hmmm we have $85 left, lets get the Tutus.
OMG, this is like Fetzer's rant against the time+light tower all those years ago.
In the end, art is subjective. It can cause discourse (like this). It doesn't have to be liked by everyone.
@162,000+ people in Cary, a $16,000 dollar investment in public art costs each resident less than a dime.
B. How's that possible when Cary isn't a city? If they're basing it on population alone, Cary is an enormous town geographically.
Just an FYI: In North Carolina, there's no rhyme or reason for which municipalities are called towns and which ones are called cities. Roxboro and Sylva, for instance are "cities", while Cary and Chapel Hill are "towns".
In comparison with the rest of the state, it seems to be more of a Triangle trend to call more populated areas "towns", perhaps a desire from the powers that be to have their jurisdictions associated with a leafy, quaint image.
