Chicago is like that too. Really easy to get around.

I used to hate Philly, not I can tolerate it. Not my favorite but not terrible either

I loathe DC. Yeah I grew up here but I've never taken to it. Maybe loathe is too strong a word

I like Chicago a lot, but the weather can be a bitch

NYC is far and away my favorite US city

City or suburbs?

NY has it all. Definitely my favorite too with New Orleans #2.

I went to NYC for a few days and I thought it was okay. A little too fast paced for me and stupidly crowded. The streets are like cramming into a subway car at 8am.

Great place to visit, would hate to live there.

I felt the same until I got transferred there. I found it to be a remarkably easy city to live in (granted I know long term there may have been challenges without more disposable income)

I think I might like DC a bit better if it weren't for its unbelievably inefficient public transportation system.

What's your definition of inefficent?

Totally agree about NYC. Love to visit, would hate to live there. Thats why its great to live in Philly because I can visit NYC and DC...same for ppl living in DC or Maryland. Baltimore shouldnt be considered, im sorry. My buddy from NYC said the same about Philly when he visited "Damn, I didnt know Philly was this hot and baddass!" Totally agree with Chico, dont criticize a city based on fan rep and visiting once...any city u visit u have to know where to go! If im inviting somebody to Philly, Im telling them about Rittenhouse Square, not 5th and Diamond in North Philly...LOL...but thats any city

Youre cheating yourself if u havent spent time in this city...funny line about the Fresh Prince and Bel Air by JoeRedskin (smh) and nice follow up by Chico

I liked Raleigh, NC a lot.

I love Frederick, MD but I guess I'm biased because I went to college and grad school there.

San Diego, San Jose and Hollister, CA are pretty neat as well.

I'd say mine is NYC I absolutely love that place, I'd live there if I could. I grew up an hour away from NO and went there a bunch to visit family. It's a Cool city but the crime is just ridiculous.

NOLA is a nice place to visit but I wouldn't want to live there.

Thats what I say about NYC. Great city probably my favorite because there is nothing like it in the world, but I couldnt live there. I need grass in my life.
