Which metro/city provides a greater urban lifestyle?

San Francisco, but be prepared to pay for it.

Personally no, but in another thread there were references by ATL posters claiming the ATL is more urban and developed when compared to SF so I thought maybe I was missing something and maybe could be educated.

This based on my time living in SF and the 40-50 visits to the ATL am thinking I missed the urban parts that would make more urban than SF

No, you're not missing anything. If they are asserting such a thing, then they are in the vast minority of Atlanta posters. I would forget about trying to educate anyone that is that hellbent on ignorance.

Agreed with both of your posts.

Well I just get perplexed that even if a minority there are assetions that places are not what they are. i think the ATL is perfectly fine as it is and is one of the great cities of the country and truly a beacon in the SE all while offering urban enclaves and retaining a lot of the southern charm wrapped up in a modern and growing offering

LOL I wouldn't even say on a city basis that Chicago (Or Los Angeles/Washington DC) are more urban than San Francisco. All three being more urban than Atlanta by far and away.

Atlanta more urban than San Francisco? LOL, drugs can make anything seem that way man.

No contest: San Francisco.

This is just another Atlanta bash thread and it's getting old. Can we have this thread deleted?
