1. Louisville, CO Courtesy: Brad Kemp/City of Louisville Top 100 rank: 1  Population: 18,400  Unemployment: 6.3% This sunny, lively mountain town is safe (crime rates are among the lowest in Colorado) and easy to navigate. Lots of good jobs in tech, telecom, aerospace, clean energy, and health care can be found right in Louisville, and more are on their way. And there's world-class mountain biking, hiking, and skiing in the nearby Rockies. Real estate prices have barely budged since 2005, yet a typical three-bedroom house here still runs less than a comparable one in nearby Boulder. Its schools consistently rank among the top three academically in the Denver area.  -Jessica Levine 2.

But taxpayers should keep in mind that many variables can affect the speed of a tax refund. The IRS issues more than 90 percent of refunds within 21 days. Why can’t the IRS tell me the exact date I will get my refund? The IRS reminds taxpayers that refund time frames provided by the " Where's My Refund? " IRS2Go smartphone application (app) and tax providers are projected time frames and are subject to revision. Many different factors can affect the timing of the refund after the IRS receives the return for processing. Also, keep in mind that the date “Where’s My Refund“ provides is the estimated date the IRS will issue the refund, not the date the taxpayer will get the refund. It may take up to five additional days for the financial institution to post the refund to your account, or for mail delivery. ...
