I am not sure what methodology Entrepreneur magazine used to compile the list. And frankly, I have some serious doubts about some of the other choices.

Youngstown, Ohio? Really? Maybe things have changed from the days when I played soccer for the "Sons of Italy" in the depressed rust belt town. But that would be one heck of a turnaround.
John Cook, it is one heck of a turnaround. Come to the Youngstown Business Incubator and see for yourself.
