It takes a village to put together Reader’s Digest’s Nicest Places in America. For our eighth annual contest, we started as we always do: by asking you, our readers, to be our scouts around the country and send us your nominations for the nicest places you know. Our editorial team vets each place carefully, whittling down the list with the help of our panel of judges, who know a thing or two about niceness themselves. Congratulations to each of the 2024 Nicest Places in America. Keep showing us all how it’s done!
Read on to check out 2024’s winners—including Provo, Utah, which earned this year’s top spot. Then scroll down to submit a nomination for 2025’s Nicest Places in America!
