You may have seen the Mercer study of the World’s Most Livable Cities, but that’s for regular schmoes; what are the best cities for design, and designers?

A list of the Best U.S. Cities for Design has been compiled by architectural firm RMJM Hillier; alas, only the ‘States has been covered.

To come up with the list, RMJM Hillier compared U.S. cities with populations over 500,000 according to 10 design-related categories, including the number of buildings featured on the National Historic Register, the quality and quantity of public transit systems, the number of “green” buildings and level of sustainability, and the number of architectural and design awards won.
