Realtor.com did a survey recently though and found 10 of the top spots that outdoor lovers can actually afford. They looked at the following criteria as they found the best cities for outdoor lovers:
  • median listing prices in cities and counties
  • bike-friendliness ratings from the League of American Bicyclists
  • number of outdoors-related businesses per household
  • within a four-hour drive of a national park
