What part of the US do you think is most diverse when it comes to cities? By this, I mean which region has more variety when it comes to climate, look, feel, topography, etc in their cities. NOT diversity in terms of people. I hope this isn't an unfair comparison, considering the West has less major cities than the East.

East
New York City
Philadelphia
Washington DC
Baltimore
Boston
Charlotte
Atlanta
Tampa
Miami
Orlando
Pittsburgh
Raleigh
Nashville
Richmond

West
Los Angeles
San Diego
San Francisco
Seattle
Portland
Phoenix
Las Vegas
Denver
Albuquerque
Salt Lake City
Sacramento
Tucson
Honolulu
Anchorage

AH! I see. Definitely West! We don't have a humid subtropical climate, but we have Mediterranean, Tropical Savannah, Tropical Rainforest, Oceanic, Arid, Steppe, Subarid/Semi-arid, Sub-polar and Polar. East is Humid Subtropical, Semi-tropical and Humid Continental.

I agree! I personally think the Western cities are more different from one another than the east cities. But it's still a very diverse region.

Don't forget Sacramento #11 in diversity in the U.S. Also once labeled by Time Magazine as "the most diverse city in America"

If u look at the diversity list it's California, and everyone else. West for sure.
