WalletHub has released its Best & Worst Small Cities in America for 2015, and those two DeKalb cities made it into the top 1,000.

WalletHub’s analysts compared 1,268 cities across four key dimensions: affordability, economic health, education and health quality of life. It chose cities with a population size between 25,000 and 100,000 residents.

Those cities were then based on 22 metrics, ranging from housing costs to school-system quality to the number of restaurants per capita.

The best small city in America? Princeton, NJ.

Georgia’s best city was Alpharetta, coming in at No. 83.
