They looked at factors like ranking on the Gallup-Healthways Well-Being Index, percentage of clear and sunny days, healthiness of beaches, commute times, walkability, standard of living and financial well-being of the locals, and their editors' assessment of each town's “coastal vibe.”

Grand Haven is currently in the No. 1 spot!
