Columbus for me because it has nicer historic neighborhoods. Neither of their downtowns really do it for me though. I prefer Cincinnati to Columbus and Memphis to Nashville

Nashville can defiantly learn some things about how a riverfront should look from Columbus

Columbus. Better architecture, better weather, safer, overall nicer, and a bonus MLS team. And its also nice to be closer to major cities. Nashville doesnt really have much around except Memphis which is, erm, well, not someplace exciting.

City Crime Rankings by Population Group

According to this source, Columbus is more dangerous than Nashville.

Nashville has a lot around it.

Memphis Chattanooga Knoxville

Bowling Green Louisville

Atlanta
Birmingham

All of these are 1-3 hours away

The only one that is true is "More Scenery" ... "More Music" would only win in Nashville if you're talking about Country or Christian. And "Friendlier People" should be changed to "Fake Friendlier People." The other three in the list are straight wrong.

Nashville is indeed a pleasant and ever improving city ... however, Columbus still emerges the winner for some of the obvious reasons.
Columbus is much more diverse, it has a stronger local economy and has proven its resilience. It's a more attractive metropolis that is also near the amenities of both Cleveland and Cincinnatti.
Columbus has a very developed and appealing waterfront area ... and most believe that the city will continue to grow and attract new residents and businesses alike.
Nothing against Nashville at all ... just a fair minded opinion that is shared by many.
