Colorado Springs just got another feather in its cap: people who live here are pretty smart. 

According to a study released Tuesday by Portfolio Magazine the Springs is the 15th smartest city in the country.

The magazine evaluated 200 American cities based on census data and levels of education. Other Colorado cities also did well — Boulder was ranked number one, Fort Collins was number five, and Denver was 21st. The only other Colorado city included was Greeley, which was ranked 136th.
