Who's the joker that voted for OK City?

There really is no other city like L.A., in my opinion. Certain other cities share certain traits, but there really is only one Los Angeles... and none of these, or any other cities come to mind as being similar.

If I had to pick a city, I guess it would be San Diego... but even that is a stretch.

There are things about Miami, Denver, Orlando, Houston, & Austin that have attributes like LA.

I said Denver but I should have said Houston. Didn't see it there.

Well this may not be a fair answer but I think the obvious city would be San Diego

If you take the worst attributes of LA and none of the good ones, you get Phoenix. We passed through last year on our way from LA to Sedona and man...what a depressing place.

I agree, and I lived in Phoenix for 8 years. Phoenix is much more like the inland empire suburbs (San Bernardino-Riverside-Fontana) than it is like the actual city of Los Angeles. Big difference IMO.
