Just because its a huge tourist attraction doesn't mean we like it. I like all the cities;However, I prefer the other ones over it.

Edit: Never mind I guess there are quite a few threads about Texas and the South in general that are up
Please don't apologize, and welcome to the forum! Rachael84, DailyJournalist, and a few others on here are notorious for hating everything and anything about much of the South. I'm personally very curious about Texas myself. I'd never move there in a million years (100-degree weather three months per year would be HORRIBLE), but overall it's a place I'd like to visit.

To get back on topic I'd probably choose Fort Worth. It's a very large city in its own right that is not only overshadowed by Dallas but is also COMPLETELY ignored by the morons who will say they live in the "Dallas CSA."

It was tough but I narrowed it down to 3 (in no order).

Austin, Dallas, and Houston.

Poor San Antonio is getting whipped. Wasn't expecting it to have the most votes but definitely a higher percentage than it does right now.
