The new list released on Tuesday rates North Carolina's Triangle above Charlotte, which took the No. 22 spot, down from No. 14 last year. Winston-Salem is No. 43 (down from 37), and Greensboro picked up spot No. 60 (down from 51).
I still find it so peculiar how they rank Durham and Raleigh together but Winston and Greensboro separately.
I've been saying that for years raliegh/Durham work together to form a major metro Greensboro and Winston work against each other as much as they can lol. It's ridiculous
