It's one anchor city (Houston/Atlanta) paired with multi-nodal cities (Dallas-Fort Worth/Miami-Fort Lauderdale) and all are roughly about the same size or so. They're definitely in the same ball park, same region, nearly the same weather wise (with different variations of course), and totally different cities but unique upon themselves.
So which tag team group do you prefer more? Houston & Miami-Fort Lauderdale or Atlanta & Dallas-Fort Worth? Basically if you were offered one of these sets of cities and had to pick a group which one of these two would it be and why?
Criteria:
- Economy
- Education
- Safety
- Food/Dining
- Recreational activities
- Parks
- Scenery/Surrounding
- Nightlife
- Shopping
- Location (Sea or inland?)
- Skyline
- Public Transit
- City scape
- Anything else you can think up
So which would it be? Miami-Fort Lauderdale & Houston OR Dallas-Fort Worth & Atlanta?

That isn't to say Houston & Miami-Fort Lauderdale are better than Dallas-Fort Worth & Atlanta, but everyone has preferences, and for me, I do prefer being near the coast.
Definitely the strangest comparrison I've seen on CD in a while.
