About The Plastics Blog
As editor of Plastics News, I scan scores of Web sites, emails and news releases daily, and stay in constant touch with our network of global staff reporters and correspondents -- the largest reporting team in the plastics industry. I distill the more interesting items into commentary for this blog. Plastics News, part of Crain Communications Inc., began publishing weekly news in 1989, and launched a bilingual China site in mid-2005. In 2007, Crain acquired the two leading English-language plastics publications in Europe - Plastics & Rubber Weekly and the monthly European Plastics News.

Hats off to Evansville

| 1 Comment | No TrackBacks

Evansville, Ind., a city with a very healthy plastics industry, has won a readers' choice poll of favorite places to work, live and play sponsored by Kiplinger's Personal Finance.

You'll recall that Kiplinger's recently named another plastics-intensive city -- Houston -- as the No. 1 U.S. city.

Here's what Kiplinger's has to say about Evansville:

A low crime rate, affordable homes, good schools, hardly any traffic and plenty to do. Who wouldn't want to live in a city that offered all this? Perhaps that's why Kiplinger.com readers picked Evansville, Ind., as their favorite city, with almost twice as many votes as runner-up Green Bay, Wis.

What do you say, Evansville residents? Does the city deserve this applause?

Having also lived in the East, Far West, and North, I concur that Kiplinger's got it exactly right.
