Actually I don't think of L.A. is world class.I think of San Francisco as world class.NYC ,Boston,Chicago etc....L.A. has world class amenities but its layout and design leave less to be desired.I'm not saying it is "sterile"but I do understand some that might have a "general impression" of it.No I personally do not believe this to be entirely true.

Whatever I guess you perfer the sprawl of Atlanta's suburbs.
I always thought sterile meant cities that were real clean, organized, shiny, and with a lot of brand new flashy development. Not necessarily lacking history or urbanity, though.
So thats your response?Must mean I'm right.LOL.So predictable andfunny.Specially since L.A. is the number one poster child for sprawl.
Naw that tittle is long gone. LA isn't even the proper definition for sprawl anymore. LA is laid out fine, but of course how would you know you've never set foot here. I would say ATL isn't world class look how IT'S laid out. Talk about suburban sprawl.

And Houston is the opposite of sterile.
I guess someone would have a different opinion,but thie is my interpertation.I mean sterile is basically a clean slate.A very small imprint.So that could be in History and culture.For instance what is a city like San Diego or Portland known for?What are their histories,culture or major contributions to its region or better the Nation?It can also mean what cities just don't look "lived" in.I personally don't like L.A.I just thought I'd say that for "hollywoodinqurer',who thinks the world revolves around L.A.Every city has one.
And yes,there is sprawl in Atlanta.But the amount of growth and "infill density" in Atlanta over the past 10 years has not been witnessed by any other city in the North America.People never realize that a city like Atlanta changes constantly.....And yes..(HOLLYWOOD)I do prefer Atlanta by a LONG shot over L.A. any day.

I have been all over the U.S.The Air Force made that happen,so that is why I agree that Atlanta is not "world class".There are not many cities in America that are.What else ya got?LOL

OH YES!!WHAT FUN!! I took this picture while me and my friends were "frolicking" downtown Atlanta near city hall and the subway(MARTA) in a nice meadow of flowers.
LA? Sterile? Not by any sense of the definition you've laid out, or by most other definitions, either. It more often gets critcized as being dirty and gritty. I can't imagine that anyone who has spent any amount of time in LA could possibly even consider calling it sterile, regardless of whether or not they like the city.
I can't think of any cities I would consider sterile, although I haven't spent time in all of the cities listed on this poll. There are, however, suburbs of some of these cities that I would describe as sterile.
