Where Are America’s Military Veterans Really Thriving?

Military Storage

by John Egan

From sea to shining sea, about 21.4 million military veterans live across the United States. Whether it’s a 25-year-old veteran who fought in Iraq or a 65-year-old veteran who did battle in Korea, our veterans have succeeded in protecting our freedom.

On an individual basis, away from the front lines, the success of our military veterans can be measured in terms of income, employment and education. In those three categories, many veterans are much better off than their non-veteran counterparts.

In honor of Veterans Day, MilitaryStorage.com combed through data from the U.S. Census Bureau to come up with a list of the 12 U.S. metro areas where veterans are doing the best compared with non-veterans.

To read the list, ranked in descending order, visit the MilitaryStorage.com blog.
