Default Houston--Atlanta--Dallas--Miami**"SMACKDOWN"**

These 4 up and comming Mega Cities may be each others biggest competitors in the future. Lets have a Smackdown and see who wins. Please vote for your favorite of the 4. Please take into consideration living there. This is not a popularity contest its a chance to vote for the one that you think is the best and smack down the rest.

That order is wrong. Houston has the biggest economy out of four and the best for job oppurtunities. Atlanta and Dallas could fight it out for 2nd spot. Anyways, of course I pick Houston with Atlanta 2nd. I feel Houston has the most potential out of all the cities with its diversity, economy, importance,etc. Atlanta is the most progressive out of the four but is not in a good position right now, but hopefully will come out alright and continue on with its growth. Miami is just overrated to me.

Dallas would be 2nd, the city gained jobs in o7-o8; Atlanta lossed jobs during that time.
