In the top 10 METRO areas rank, because sometimes cities have populations of 450,000 and 4 million in the metro, it would be:
Dallas.
It has a lot of nice people and is welcoming to transplants, but the area is aesthetically foreboding to me ... and you can't escape from that for miles and miles.
I agree that it's not aesthetically pleasing as it is located on the Prarie, but the city itself is not even slightly boring. Where it falls short is outdoor activities.
Not even close. If you don't enjoy the outdoors then I can see how SD can be boring otherwise you got some serious issues if you can't find stuff to do in SD given it's climate and topography.

Define large...then I'll be able to answer your question. For me, major cities that I'd consider boring would be Omaha, Des Moines, Indy, Columbus, Tulsa, Oklahoma City, and Louisville. All cities with not really that much to show, at least from the perspective of someone living in a much larger metro area.

LOL at San Diego...that place is awesome. I can't imagine anyone who would hate living there. And if that's not to your liking, Los Angeles is a very short drive away.
Oh yea, it's so boring here. There's never any festivals in the summer, never any malls to shop at, no lakes to go jet skiing or boating or fish, and god forbid anyone actually wanted to live some place with history and art. Don't even get me started on the lack of national sports teams in this area. We just totally have none of the things people aren't looking for in a metro.
