Never been to Knoxville, but Omaha was surprisingly pretty nice. I like its downtown and riverfront area. I could manage living there.
New Orleans or Honolulu?
New Orleans. Two places I've never been, but are surely on the top of my list to visit. Although there are so many things about Honolulu I'd prefer over New Orleans (the climate, mountains, oceans), I simply would not want to be so isolated. I'd surely get island fever. New Orleans has a lot of positives (history, architecture, cuisine) but it's not honestly a place I'd ever see myself living. But, I'd prefer it to living anywhere in Hawaii.

Salem, MA or New Hope, PA?
Having spent decent amounts of time in both, New Hope. Even if Salem has more interesting history, New Hope has some of its own, and it's far more picturesque.
Nicodemus, Kan., or Lawnside, N.J.? (It may not actually be possible to live in one of these two places anymore, but it remains a recognizable place. Bonus points to anyone who can explain why I chose to pair these two.)

Both are communities settled by black folks. Lawnside just outside of Camden, is still going strong. So, I would choose it due to its location.
In the same vein, Mound Bayou MS or Eatonville FL?
Not a big fan of either (too deep south for me coupled with some brutally long/humid summers), but at least Augusta has the Masters, has less of a hurricane threat with a better chance of snow in the winter, closer to the mountains while still being withing daytip distance to the beach, and is in a more "progressive" state. There's also better access to Atlanta and its huge airport for getting away.
Opp, AL or Rosedale, MS?

Opp, AL or Rosedale, MS?
Opp... larger, more prosperous, close to the Gulf.
Shreveport, LA or Montgomery, AL?
