These Three Peninsula Towns Are Among The 'Richest Small Cities' in America

Three San Francisco Peninsula area cities made the list of "The 10 Richest Small Cities In America," in a survey released Thursday by Movoto, a real estate research blog.

The group looked at 950 places with populations between 30,000 and 80,000, and ranked them by looking at per capita numbers of fine dining restaurants, fine clothing and jewelry stores, luxury car dealerships, country clubs -- and even the number of cosmetic surgeons per capita. 

The top spot went to Bethesda, MD. Six California cities are on the list.

Locally, Palo Alto came in second, Menlo Park came in fifth and Foster City came in eighth.
