A new report by WalletHub has named Birmingham as one of the nation’s best overall and most affordable cities to celebrate New Year’s Eve.
In order to compile the rankings, “WalletHub compared the 100 most populated U.S. cities across three key dimensions: 1) Entertainment & Food, 2) Costs and 3) Safety & Accessibility.” Those three dimensions comprised “28 relevant metrics.”
After this analysis, Birmingham was recognized as the 14th best overall city for New Year’s Eve and the fifth most affordable. For entertainment and food, the Magic City was ranked 22nd, while its safety and accessibility score came in at lowly number 73.
At the top of the best overall rankings was New York City by a considerable margin, followed by Los Angeles, Atlanta, San Diego and Las Vegas.
