Or maybe the Economist Intelligence Unit knows what it's doing and Maclean's magazine is a clueless rag.

If you follow the link, it says the best thing about Brooks is its internet access. Yeah, that sure sounds like a reason to move there.

‘Internet access’ and ‘amenities’ are weighted equally on the Maclean's list. ‘Population growth’ is listed as a criterion, but transportation isn't considered at all.
