Main Street, USA: The heart of every small town beats the strongest downtown, in the place where the community gathers. Main streets in towns and cities across America are lined with local shops, cafes and restaurants, forming the center of the community’s culture and establishing a town’s identity.

Recognizing their allure and significance, the Mixbook website team embarked on a mission to celebrate main streets in a way they deserve. They conducted a survey of 3,000 respondents, and earlier this year compiled a list of the “Top 100 Most Charming Main Streets” in the nation.

“Among the array of main streets celebrated across the country, ten rose to the top, distinguished by their exceptional beauty, vibrant culture, and unparalleled charm,” they discovered. The list is “a celebration of America’s diversity, heritage, and the enduring appeal of its main streets.” Is your hometown on it?
