So declare the over 200 surveys returned to the Vernal Express' "Vernal Has Been Chosen One Of The Best 50 Small Towns In America" Campaign.

In Norman trampton's recently published book "The 100 Best Small Towns in America" Vernal rated 48th. The reasons for the high rating were good economic base, fine health care services, good schools, large library, many recreational opportunities, progressive local news media, low housing costs, and inventive citizens. Some of these same ideas were expressed by our survey participants when asked what they liked best about Vernal. Vernal is one of the best. WHO SAYS SO? YOU DO! mm Best Stereo. Record.
