Miami is in no danger of losing its reputation as a party destination for pretty people, according to the results of a survey released Wednesday by Travel + Leisure.

In the magazine’s eighth annual America’s Favorite Cities report, Miami earned top ranking for its attractive people, nightclubs and singles scene. The area was No. 2 when it came to spa vacations, and third for beach getaways, wild weekends and the stylish population.

In less flattering categories, the region earned a second-place finish for snobbery and third for rudeness.

Other Miami designations include a No. 4 ranking for cocktail bars and fifth place for hip/cool people.

The top cities overall, according to the survey, were Providence in first place, followed by Houston, Kansas City, Minneapolis/St. Paul and Los Angeles.
