I think I go:

 

1.  Chicago

2.  New York

3.  San Francisco

4.  Boston

5.  Seattle

 

Like everyone has said though.  All cities have something to offer.  Even a place like Milwaukee you can have a blast.

It does mean "The Good Land" after all.

I do love traveling to PST, since I wind up waking up at '5 AM' which makes it easy to get my workout out of the way for the day.  I imagine I'd eventually adjust my schedule and lose the benefit if I lived in that time zone though.

Yes I think you’d eventually adjust if you lived there lol

Supremely underrated city: Philadelphia.

 

Had what was probably the best night out in a US city that was not NOLA, in Philly a few years ago.


I never had friends later on like the ones I had when I was twelve. Jesus, does anyone?

I've been to Austin a few times, and it's awesome - a walkable city with great food (especially BBQ) and live music.  Plenty of sights to see, and parks and walking trails.  I've never been in the summer, but in December, the weather's been perfect.

Yes, Philly is great. It might be in my top 5 cities to visit.

Baltimore comes in at #23

Baltimore has a lot to be said for, in spite of its flaws, but what city doesn't have flaws?

 

but lately, its depressing to drive through there, trash isnt being picked up, as they are having trouble with enough staffing due to COVID.

Trash is being picked up. Recycling is not.

Not where I was, near Lexington Market and then over to University of Md Medical Center, it was piled up around the cans and light poles. Im sure thats not the same picture all over B-More.

 

Ive only been to Boston once, not sure, I ever want to go back.

 

NYC was an experience that I wouldnt mind going back, after COVID has past.

 

Oahu was by far, my favorite city, been there twice and would love to go back.

 

Ive been to San Jose, another city on the list, that I didnt have fond memories of

 

I need to get down to Texas and do some traveling and eating.
