You don’t need to burn any miles to get in a solid summer vacation—or at least a killer Summer Fridays Personal finance website WalletHub has shared its yearly list of best (and worst) spots to spend those personal days.
WalletHub defines a staycation as a time lasting about four days (hello, long weekend). The destinations on its lists are derived from a 100-city ranking of America’s most densely populated cities using 17 metrics, including number of swimming pools, tennis courts, public golf courses, zoos, museums, and more. Based on these metrics, each city is assigned three numerical rankings: Recreation, Food & Entertainment, and Rest & Relaxation. A majority of the spots are sprinkled throughout the South, but there are a few wildcards thrown in here and there (ahem, Boise).
