Grand Rapids and Peoria feel pretty urban to me (for relatively small metro areas); I never thought Fort Wayne felt very urban. Lansing felt mixed. I've never been to Flint.

Grand Rapids-Truely seems like a city, close to a great lake,
Lansing-Like grand rapids
Fort Wayne-Same as Peoria
Peoria-Rural but nicer then expected
Flint-My god this is the worst city i have ever seen

I've only been to Flint and it felt like a little piece of Detroit...not in the good way. But the downtown area has potential.

Grand Rapids is in an entirely dif league or class of city than the others. A lot bigger city/ metro with a lot more to do.

Love Fort Wayne. It has a huge Burmese population which adds a nice touch to the city.
