Prefer North Carolina to Alabama. It is a larger metro area. Much closer to desirable mid-Atlantic destinations (Washington DC, Richmond, Virginia Beach, Annapolis, MD). It is close to some other major NC cities: just 80 miles to Charlotte; 100 miles to Raleigh; 145 miles to Asheville.

Rocklin, CA or Rockville, MD?
Rockville, as it is a bit more urbane than its opponent. I like the Maryland suburbs of DC.

Williamsburg, VA or St. Augustine, FL?

Williamsburg because I'm very familiar with it and have family there, also for the reasons I prefer VA Beach over Jacksonville. But I could live in both.

Fairbanks, AK or Juneau, AK?

Murfreesboro, TN

It is larger than Muncie (130k vs 70k). It is closer to Nashville (35 miles) than Muncie is to Indianapolis (65 miles). So it is a little closer to major employers and entertainment. The city has also done a good job preserving its history. Cannonsburgh Village has buildings and exhibits from the 1830's to the 1930's.

Gilroy, CA or Watsonville, CA?

Independence, MO. Not far from Kansas City, I like the city size, & I like the city name better.

Minneapolis. Lower COL with almost the same wage as Seattle. Also I would rather take the cold than the dreary climate.


Portland, ME or Portland, OR

Bismarck, ND

It is much larger than Pierre (72k vs 14k), has more amenities and a better economy. Bismarck is located very close to the I-94 freeway. Pierre is located 40+ miles north of the I-90 freeway.

Fargo, ND or Rochester, MN?
