That’s according to the 2019 results of the Readers’ Choice Awards at Conde Nast Traveler where readers voted Charleston the number 1 “Best Small City.”
The holy city is no stranger to this award as it’s won this distinction for nine years straight.
“Charleston may be a small town, but this city punches well above its weight,” said writers at Conde Nast.”When you consider everything it has to offer—history, culture, food, charm—it’s no wonder the so-called Holy City has topped our list of the best small cities in the U.S. for nine years running.”
Here’s the full list of best small cities:
- Charleston, SC
- Santa Fe, NM
- Alexandria, VA
- Savannah, GA
- Key West, FL
