Top 10 river towns in the United States.

[@stephenscott5718]

My family has been in LA Crosse Wisconsin for almost 180 years. Beautiful place, three rivers, the La Crosse, the Black, and of course the Mississippi. We are in a valley surrounded by bluffs, and we are part of the Driftless area too. Lots to do here also.

[@chrishampton8842]

Beautiful area, fished the Mississippi in your area for years

[@pongop]

My sister lived there for a short time a few years ago and liked it.

[@johnshepherd9676]

La Crosse is a nice town but the City is rather Plain Jane. Are you a Swanson or Kechel?

[@Cali-Kelli]

Savannah is such a beautiful & charming town with so much history. One of my favorites.

[@KristNi]

Not a southern city anymore

[@buffalosoilder2112]

I really love Bend Oregon. Perfect mix of nature sites. Mountains, waterfalls, Smith rock, crater lake, and of course the Deschutes river.

[@gracealleman4102]

And cold as shi...t 6 months of year

[@heathturner1749]

Couldn’t believe Bend wasn’t on the list

[@thullraven1]

I love their beer!

[@dreamingwolf8382]

My parents had their home beside a river. Emphasis on had. Flooding is a real concern to look at when you buy these properties.

[@craigzievis2074]

Marietta, Ohio definitely belongs on this list. Such a great town!

[@travist.7279]

My take on river-front property: That river that flows through your back yard in Summer, may be flowing through your living room, come Winter.

[@travist.7279]

Truckee, California. This town sits on the Truckee River, about 30 miles west of Reno, and 15 miles north of Lake Tahoe. It is high in the Sierras (at the foot of Donner Pass) and is served by both Interstate 80 and Amtrak. It was a great hidden gem, back in the 1970's and early 80's. However, I have heard that it has been turned into a playground for the rich---which may be why it didn't make this list.

[@coastalhillbilly3419]

Yep, I Zillowed it after reading your comment, it is very expensive to buy a home in Truckee

[@grizfan93]

Decent list, but in my opinion, one huge, glaring omission. You left off Missoula, Montana from the list. That town definitely deserves a spot on the list. The book and movie "A River Runs Through It" was set in and around Missoula. While fairly expensive, it wouldn't have been the most expensive town on this list, and it has a lot going for it. Solid food and beer scene, tons of nearby outdoor activities, decent nightlife and music scene, and a university. All nestled into the mountains. What more could you ask?

[@vrp406]

Don't forget about surfing in the Clark Fork

[@KnightPromotions1]

I live in Missoula MT and I totally agree with you

[@richardafutrell9864]

Briggs, glad you included Chattanooga. If I was to move, it would definitely be in my top 5…probably top 3. It’s a beautiful up and coming city that is also affordable. I’m surprised it didn’t make your list for Best Cities for Young Adults

[@revcounselor]

If you're in the St. Louis area, check out Grafton, IL. It is a small river town on the convergence of the Mississippi and Illinois rivers. The flood of 1993 devastated this little town, and its future seemed up in the air. They have come back amazingly. Every time I go back to visit family in the area, something new and great pops up in this town. They have great restaurants, a winery way up on a bluff, specialty shops, antique stores, and a pretty good water park that was built in the bluffs and designed to blend in with the natural beauty. Not only is it an amazing success story that defied the odds, but it is, in its own right, a pretty cool little town that looks and acts like a vacation destination.

[@bleujean357]

And Alton.

I'm very surprised not one city on the Ohio River. Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, Louisville, Wheeling, etc.

[@kennethkilpatrick3758]

Another worth visiting is Madison, Indiana. Once thriving steamboat port and largest town on the Ohio River between Cincinnati and Louisville. Has a huge historic district with very well preserved homes from the early 1800's.

[@HasanibnSabah]

Just looked this up on google maps on a whim. WOW…what a gorgeous place that I would have never known of! Now it is on my list!

How does Pittsburgh not make this list? Three rivers! Fantastic place

[@GeeEm1313]

It's not a town, smart guy.

[@Bbabybear02]

@@GeeEm1313 Then why is Chattanooga Tennessee on this list? It is also a city like Pittsburgh.

[@TedH71]

Probably because it's smaller than Pittsburgh? @@Bbabybear02

[@sarafstop32]

I agree. Pittsburgh is along 3 rivers, with a great deal of history. It was the gateway to the west in colonial days. It's an affordable place to live with museums and sports. Countryside for outdoor activities is closeby.

[@barbforrest6026]

It's a clean city now. Wasn't when I grew up there back when they said don't swim in the rivers. Lots of culture, friendly people and not too expensive. I'm not going back because Colorado is home.

[@betsycosmos2054]

So happy to get to the end of your list and find out Savannah is #1. I just moved to a suburb of Savannah about 2 years ago and I ADORE going to downtown Savannah and enjoying the sites. It's a fun, beautiful city. (And there's a beach...Tybee Island...not far, too!)

[@ShaqElliot]

Stroudsburg, PA is a must see. Tons of amenities alongside the Appalachian Trail and the Delaware River.

[@UppityOne]

I want to move to Savannah so badly. There is so much history and culture. The people are so welcoming. The housing prices are reasonable. It is close to the ocean. The problem with Savannah - a lack of high paying jobs. My goal is still to move there.

[@rcox54321]

Savanna is another great historical city, especially the waterfront.

[@Goats_]

I hope Hood River, Oregon is on here. Such a cool little town with a solid brewery.

[@GeeEm1313]

I saw your post right when he said Hood River haha

[@kenlehigh6363]

Hood River is great! Kite surfing is extremely popular there. And it's a great day trip from Portland.

[@itgeek149]

I visited Sunriver Oregon over the summer near Bend, it was pretty amazing. Not only did they have a really nice lazy river I tubed down with my friends but the had really nice walking trails and houses. I guess they got hit hard by a fire few years back so a lot of rebuilding going on, but if you are ever nearby or looking for an experience, I'd highly recommend. Also Bend has a river running through it and it was legit. I've never been to Durango Colorado, but heard from tons of people its a nice river town also.

[@Sydeshow123]

Bend is awesome, but it became super popular and struggled with growth and now is too expensive.

[@lorrainestrickland]

St. Augustine - Be sure to check out their foodie tours. You can visit and sample food from numerous restaurants in the historic section of St. Augustine. A lot of fun and great food too! Savannah - Ghost tours. They’re not only fun to learn of the local lore and legends but you’ll hear of so much interesting history you might not have heard but for the tour. Also, some terrific restaurants.

[@kindredspiritbaseballmom7913]

I tuned in to this with Dubuque in mind and I'm so glad it made the list. I fell in love with that part of Iowa when my family traveled there from Michigan for a travel baseball tournament. Just like you mentioned in the video, it was a Field of Dreams tournament. My son's team loved the experience so much last year that we are going again this season. It was magical at the Field of Dreams Movie Site in Dyersville. We walked a bit of the riverwalk in Dubuque and I loved it. Very picturesque with the bridges going over the mighty Mississippi River. The overall landscape in Iowa with the farms and fields is very pretty.

[@GodzillaHQ91]

There is more to our town than the baseball scene but I'm glad you dug it here.

East of the river is Galena, Illinois which is a lovely fun town too

[@LogoTimeClark]

Michigan is a beautiful state. Getting a compliment from you means a lot.

[@martinabuckley6037]

My town is historic, picturesque and our city center/downtown was built right on our riverfront ports hundreds of years ago with one of the trading structures still in use called "the Cotton Exchange". Wilmington has so much history here, including underground tunnels from the Cape Fear River running through the city that the pirates used. We have UNCW, Cape fear ports, Azalea Fest, Octoberfest, Riverfest, and Screen Gems Studios. It is a small movie town. A historic tour, ghost walk, civil war grounds museum at Fort Fisher, several local beaches juxtaposing the river which is magical in itself. Wilmington was established in 1760s. I can't believe we didn't make your list.

[@gracealleman4102]

He did say if you have ears...that this list is where he visited. And his opinion

[@heatherb5368]

Not me fast forwarding through the video to see if Wilmington was listed. I'm from Greenville but currently residing in Raleigh. I agree, Wilmington is beautiful! I visit every chance I get.

[@issacman1870]

Sioux City, IA in my opinion is a good river town. It historically has been very important due to its location on the Missouri River and it’s not expensive

[@mcdanielbradyn]

Is it still heavy with crime there

[@roadlesstraveled1819]

I live in Sioux falls and I don't know anywhere I or anyone else hates more than Sioux City haha

[@buckbenthall]

Another great river town is Cape Girardeau, Missouri. Founded in 1793. South East Missouri State University is located here. Has a casino. Cape is the economic center of South East Missouri

[@herc3139]

You gotta check out Mystic, Connecticut! Beautiful old timey New England town with a historical seaport, awesome aquarium, cute little shops, and great food. Plus the Mystic Drawbridge is legendary!

[@pongop]

Good pizza!

[@ericstites9470]

One thing about Chattanooga... locals pronounce it "Chadda-nooga", not "Chattnooga". Other'n that you're dead on, beautiful place! Also cool to see Helen on this list - I grew up not far from there!

[@jameshumphrey2345]

Nice selection. I've visited Savannah, Chattanooga and Dubuque and was impressed by all. As much Idaho love as I've seen on your channel, I'm kind of surprised Idaho Falls didn't get an honorable mention. Can't cover everything, I guess.

[@adamsouthard1155]

I've been waiting for Savannah to pop up in one of your videos. It took long enough. And it is a great place to live. Incredible restaurants, parks, historic neighborhoods. I actually moved here from Portland, OR. I can tell you it was absolutely an upgrade. Schools are awful unless you can afford private. But, if your kids are out of school... Crime depends almost entirely on what part of town you're in. If you're paying less than $350,000 for your house then you're probably in the wrong neighborhood. Crime may happen. But it's extremely old and ornate and it's the closest thing to a European style of city this country has. And a massive plus is that the city is quite compact. Unlike Portland, everything isn't an hours' drive from everything else. I get so sick of driving when I visit family back in Oregon.

[@C3Voyage]

Great city! We love it EXCEPT for July and August!

[@betsycosmos2054]

I moved to Richmond Hill 2 years ago and love to go to Downtown Savannah!

[@cs1375]

Congrats on moving away from the toilet that is Portland.

[@uprebel5150]

Briggs, do another list that includes Grand Rapids where the Grand River cuts right through its beautiful downtown. Plus, the Riverwalk on the Detroit River has been voted the best in the US three years running. It is several miles long and also gives a great view of Windsor, Ontario to the South. Yes, to the South.

[@tedszweb5268]

I loved the Windsor side, they have beautiful areas along the River. That’s memories from the 70’s , I haven’t been back to Detroit sightseeing in the last 20 years.

[@ryanloesch5973]

Although technically a large city and the capital of Minnesota, St Paul is another cool river town and has some interesting history regarding its foundation. One of the first European's in the area, known as "Pig's Eye Pierre," due to his being blind in one eye, had a foundation in one of the sandstone caves along the Mississippi River known as Fountain Cave, and he set up a distillery inside of the cave. There was a spring of water which he used to support the liquor making process, and for a while the region was known literally as Pig's Eye. Later, a Catholic church would be built and the settlement would become what is today St. Paul. Today you can drive by the area where the caves existed via a road just off of the freeway into St Paul, and I believe there were rumors of "river pirates" camping there at one point, although I am not entirely sure if that is true.

[@KidRivera1115]

My wife and I decided to do a quick road trip on a long Forth of July weekend to Dubuque, Iowa. It looked great on the internet so we made reservations and went. Everything depicted on the internet appeared to be as advertised if it was open. This was in the late 90s and most of the attractions were closed for the weekend. They did have public fireworks on the 4th. We left and drove to Wisconsin to visit the House On The Rock in Spring Green. A great attraction for adolescents and a bit of fun for adults entertained by 'what was he thinking' reactions.

[@TedH71]

Probably has changed since then?

[@nancybode6159]

I grew up in the Quad Cities: Davenport and Bettendorf, Iowa, and Moline and Rock Island, Illinois. If you want river towns you get a four-for one here! Not only that, but you can get Harris Pizza, the best pizza on the planet. I miss the QC's. I have so many stories from growing up there!

[@THRIVETradingInvestments]

A little surprised Richmond didn't show up given its history on the James, but still so many great cities here

[@Wildcat221]

Stillwater is an iconic river town. It’s where I grew up and where my parents still live in our family home. I was just there with them at the main cafe for breakfast this past weekend. You can’t ever get sick of Stillwater it has such a nice vibe and it’s almost always hoppin with activity. People are super nice as well, Minnesota nice definitely applies here. Fireworks are great on the 4th and lumberjack days is awesome too in the summer! I highly recommend for anyone coming to Minnesota or the twin cities in general. ❤❤

[@timmmahhhh]

Add Geneva and Saint Charles to that list. Batavia is interesting too. I personally like Elgin and Aurora too, bigger but really nice older cities with a lot of history.

[@LairdKenneth]

Savanah has been a favorite of mine for a long time, as well as Natchez. These are both great cities to even just visit. One thing they have in common, is that their antebellum architecture has always been so awesome that even during the War Between the States the Yankees would not burn them down, like they were so fond of doing in other places. So you can be sure that these are some true historic gems in both these cities.

[@APSooners]

As someone who recently moved to Dubuque, I felt validated in my move to hear you mention it on this list....its certainly a unique town by Iowa standards. Keep up the great content, Briggs. If you're ever passing through again, let us subscribers know!

[@rayyoung7780]

A couple of thoughts. I lived in Spain and Portugal and in both places, like any place in the US, there are places in each city that were more dangerous and crime ridden than others. In both countries they defended graffiti as artistic expression and it was widely tolerated…a thought process I never got comfortable with. I liked living in both places. We got pickpocketed twice in Spain and probably would have in Portugal but we lived there second and by then were a bit wiser. I never felt all that unsafe in either country and would go back without fear.

[@pdxmtngoat]

Hood River is nice. A bit expensive. Unfortunately, Hood River is near Portland. The Columbia River Gorge now requires timed use permits to go on the Waterfall Highway. Never used to be that way. Too many people from nearby shitty Portland, Oregon. It has some good brew pubs. Mount Hood looming in the distance. The area relies heavily on tourism.

[@kerriekermelcatlover7243]

Taking the river theme further, you should have a video on floating home communities. I'm familiar with floating home communities in Vancouver BC, Seattle, Portland, and Sausalito. There must be some floating home communities on the Gulf Coast, East Coast, and inland lakes & rivers.

I would have really enjoyed going to the White Sox game there a couple years ago, but they weren't selling tickets to people outside of the Dyersville area.
