Amazon said January 18, 2018 it had narrowed to 20 its options for a second headquarters for the sprawling technology and lifestyle company headed by Jeff Bezos, the world's richest individual. After 238 cities from North America submitted bids, Amazon announced its short list included three in the vicinity of the US capital Washington, and the Canadian city of Toronto. / AFP PHOTO / GETTY IMAGES NORTH AMERICA / David Ryder

The saga of Amazon.com Inc’s search for a home for its second headquarters continues. The online retail giant recently announced that it has narrowed the field down to 20 cities. 

I’m happy to see that Raleigh, North Carolina, my own top pick, made the list.
