Savannah, GA or New Orleans, LA?
Six months out of the year in Savannah, the other six in New Orleans.

Not fair to pit these two very charming, distinctive, original cities against each other.

If I must choose one, New Orleans because of the food, but I really don't want to.

Lancaster, Pa., or Lancaster, Calif.?

Lancaster, Pa., or Lancaster, Calif.?
Normally I would always choose Southern California over Pennsylvania but in this case I think I'd prefer Lancaster, PA. It has a very nice walk-able downtown for a city its size and is a short drive from a lot of nice attractions in Eastern PA. Lancaster, CA is a bit too suburban for my liking (and not the most prosperous city on top of that) and far enough from the LA core that traveling back and forth wouldn't be particularly easy.

Coos Bay, OR or Aberdeen, WA?

Coos Bay, slightly better weather and Aberdeen is really depressing.


Louisville, KY or Boise, ID?

Both are very good areas. I'll take Louisville because they're larger, more to do, and close to more larger metros.

Dallas, TX and Kansas City, MO?

This is going to surprise all of you, given what you know about me, but: Dallas.

The summers are scorchers relative to Kansas City, granted, but there's more to do in the city and better mass transit. With the opening of 18th and Vine there, I can even get Kansas City-style Q.

Philadelphia or Pittsburgh?

Spokane, I could live in Colorado but wouldn't want to live in the Springs. Spokane is close to some of my favorite lakes in Northern Idaho, and good access to Seattle and Portland.

Laguna Beach, CA or Monterey, CA?

I prefer Laguna Beach. It has great easy access to all the attractions of Orange County and is only 50 miles to downtown LA. Monterey is ok for a weekend visit but I see it as a small town of less than 30k population that is too isolated.

Montclair, NJ or Kenosha, WI?

Montclair, NJ or Kenosha, WI?
Montclair. Cool suburb with a really urbane downtown and lovely housing stock. Even though North Jerseyites' fashion sense is straight outta tha 'hood, it's still a very good-looking place.

Wayne, Pa., or Wayne, N.J.?
