A Jennings County city has been recognized as one of the best places in the United States for teachers to live and work.

In the second annual “Best U.S. Cities for K-12 Teachers” report (available here), which was released Thursday by the college and careers website GoodCall, North Vernon was ranked as the 53rd best place in the country for teachers to live and work. Michelle Billick, a spokeswoman for GoodCall, says that the report recognized North Vernon’s “strong teacher salaries, great local school ratings, and a healthy job market.”

Billick says that a total of 913 cities were analyzed for their report.
