 | | In cooperation with The Longitudes Group, utilizing the Golf Digest Companies' Database of Golf in America, the survey found that the best places to live and golf are increasingly shifting to small towns and suburbs in the South (11 of our top 20), while the Northeast remains a golfer's wasteland. |
 | | Fifteen of the bottom 20 cities lie above the Mason-Dixon line, including regular bottom-feeders Bridgeport, Conn., New York City and golf-dry Jersey City, N.J. There are 330 Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSAs) in the U.S. with a population of greater than 50,000. |
 | | But in the eastern Alabama twin cities of Auburn and Opelika, a place known for the city-block-size Auburn Tiger paw print in the main square and a college football stadium that seats more than 86,000 people, golf is becoming its second passion. |
