You really should pick a city with better sport teams. Life in a city just seems better when you have good teams playing there.
In before 18-1, 4th and 2 and numerous other Boston sports jokes.
I have a thing for Atlanta.
I love Atlanta but I wouldn't model another city after it.
I understand you. The city is built weirdly. As much as I like Atlanta even I find the way it was built to be awkward. Like they just stopped building and the city is incomplete.
In my whole life, I have only seen maybe five hot construction workers. And one of those was on a stripper stage in Key West. I don't think he was really a construction worker now that I think about it.
Are you being serious? Chicago most certainly has crooks and corruption both in the private companies and in their government. It's a cesspool for crime and corruption.
If our values included glorifying the Mafia and corruption then I guess we should be most proud of Chicago. My dad is from Chicago and I have family that live there, it's a hell hole off the coast of Lake Michigan.
New York is over rated, but I would say it's less crooked than Chicago. Los Angeles is a crime hole like Chicago, but it's not much better. Chicago has it's history and "good" things, but overall it's a terrible city. I seriously wouldn't want the world to view Chicago as our model city.

Honestly Atlanta is a trashhole. Lots of drugs(and drime), impractical city, I cant actually think of one positive thing beside from the weather.
Detroit by far.
Detroit by far.
Detroit could be, but I don't think it represents what Americans want (single family home and driving to work) quite like Los Angeles does.

i was starting to find this list credible until detroit was found to be in 64th position:
List of cities by quality of living - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Americans want to drive to work? :shock:
Its not that they do not have a choice, is it? The single most thing I hated about cities when I was in the US was the huge distances and everything being so decentralized. Nor did they have subways, trams or similar services(that I could find) in Atlanta, Orlando, Jacksonville, Talahassee, Miami, Tampa or any smaller places that I visited for extended periods of time. :doh
All of those options suck donkey balls.
I'm likin' Charlottesville, VA so I'll go with that.
