Forbes magazine has rated Collin County as the 14th best place to raise a family.Here's what Forbe had to say about raising kiddos in the CC: "Home to the burgeoning northern suburbs of Dallas, Collin County is a great value play for families. An affordable median house price of $191,000 means access to a school system that boasts a 1,103 average SAT score and a graduation rate of 93%. One caveat: a sub-par crime rate of 34.7 index crimes per 1,000 people. That's four times higher than Hunterdon County, N.J., the safest county on our list."What? Our crime rate compares unfavorably to Jersey?Who's No. 1...Hamilton County, Indiana. But can they play football?
