They were mentioned in the top 5 for lowest housing costs, highest percent for-sale waterfront homes, lowest water temperature, lowest foreclosure rate, most nightlife establishments per capita, most restaurants per capita and most coffee shops per capita.
Not only were the lake beaches covered, but ocean beaches too. Naples, Florida was named the best ocean beach town to live in.
To determine the best beach towns in America, WalletHub compared almost 200 cities by six dimensions: Affordability, Weather, Safety, Economy, Education, Health and Quality of Life. They evaluated them using 62 relevant metrics and each metric was graded on a 100 point scale. If you got a score of 100, you represented the most favorable conditions for beach town living.
