This year`s "best places for jobs" list is easily the most depressing since we began compiling our annual rankings almost a decade ago. In the past--even in bad years--there were always stalwart areas creating lots of new jobs. In 2007`s survey 283 out of 393 metros areas showed job growth, and those at the top were often growing employment by at least 5% to 6%. Last year the number dropped to 63. This year`s survey, measuring growth from January 2009 to January 2010, found only 13 metros with any growth.

As far as tourist destinations go, few cities can rival the likes of New York, Washington, D.C., Las Vegas, Orlando and Los Angeles. But if you haven’t been before, each of these places can overwhelm and easily fill an entire week. The solution? Cities well designed to be visited in a weekend–or better yet, a long weekend. The best weekend cities offer at least one or two marquee attractions like world-class museums or monuments, a unique cultural atmosphere and enough great food to let visitors know they are somewhere special–all for less money and easier navigability.

Yesterday, the FBI trumpeted the news that violent crime dropped 5.5% in 2010 while reported property crimes fell 2.8% during the depths of the worst economic slowdown since the Great Depression. The news, though, is far from positive.
Though most regions of the U.S. saw declines, the Northeast saw an increase in murders (8.3%), forcible rapes (1.4%) and aggravated assaults (0.7%). Why that region was affected by crime more than others isn’t clear. Perhaps it was because of the grinding poverty found in some of the area’s cities and their high cost of living....

The Big Apple is known as one of the most romantic cities in the world – second only to Paris, perhaps – but how do you induce romance in the snow-piled slippery streets of winter?
The best way to be romantic in New York is to see New York. You can hike little-known Central Park trails, wander the grounds uptown at the Cloisters museum in Fort Tryon Park, or even kiss your sweetie in Times Square a la the famous V-J Day photo. As an added bonus, the famous landmark recently became a pedestrian-only zone, complete with café tables, making it a perfect place to relax....

Since it opened in Manhattan in 2004, the Gansevoort Hotel, with its rooftop pool overlooking the meatpacking district, has been generating buzz. The owners hoped to take that buzz to South Beach, where they bought a vast 1960s building called the Roney Plaza and carved out a 334-room hotel along one edge. (The rest of the building is reserved for condominiums.) Their masterstroke was persuading David Barton, of the eponymous gym chain, to open a large and gorgeously designed branch in the same complex. The gym is so dramatic that it was the talk of South Beach during Art Basel Miami Beach in December. Another inspired idea: renting space on the third floor to Wilhelmina Models, guaranteeing a flow of gorgeous people through the lobby.
