It only makes more sense, the more popular, the more reason why to visit it!If its not popular how can it bring international tourism or attention? that logic seems flawed to me!
Uhm ok whatever man. If you want to continue thinking Santa Fe is an international city by all means go ahead, but everyone will just laugh at you.

in this context of this thread not. Physically it is, but when people talk about international cities and saying the coasts are the most international they are referring to the west and east not the gulf or north. The gulf coast is nowhere near as international as the west and east are not one bit.

Miami is more than Latinos. West Indians, Jews, various Europeans, Canadians.

I always tend to look at what cities have the most amount of Foreign airlines serving their international airport. The following US airports with the most foreign flag carriers (passenger flights).

New York (59)
.
.
Los Angeles (41)
Miami (41) *Over 80% of all the foreign airlines are from latin America
.
Chicago (26)
San Francisco (25)
Washington D.C. (23)
.
.
Boston (14)
Houston (11)
Seattle (11)

The other US international airports are a joke when it comes to foreign airlines and in my opinion that speaks as to what city has more of a international role with the rest of the world. Miami does have alot of foreign airlines but the majority are all latin based carriers which kind of diminishes Miami to the tier of just below Washington DC.

I actually agree with your list 100%.

sorry to break it to you man, but everyone in this thread agrees that the Houston Metro is coastal except you. How more coastal can you be than fishing town spread along the gulf. The Biggest Sea-Port region in the United States. Have you been to the gulf Coast by any Chance? Fishing, Shrimping, Beaches, Sailing, water bourne trade ect is extremely popular here. I would only assume you have never been to the Gulf Coast if you say it is not coastal.









If that is not coastal then your definition of coastal does not line up with reality

On the list of U.S.' international cities, Santa Fe would probably come in the neighborhood of the 100-125 range. Still chuckling that someone put it top 10. How in the world did they miss Savannah?
