People can go on and on here. Let's get to the point. What is the best big city excluding NY and LA? Yes we know LA and NY are amazing, but that's not one of those posts...
Best cities in the USA for me, including NY and LA, would be the two cities in my username. I would have voted both if it was a multiple choice poll, but I voted for Atlanta because of the low COL, better weather, and convenient location. Seattle wins for better downtown, but Atlanta for other urban areas (Midtown, Buckhead, etc.). Seattle also wins for natural surroundings, setting, and scenery with the mountains and Puget Sound. As for culture, its a tie.
Ima tell it like it is. Take out NY and LA and it gets really clear which cities stand out.
Chicago/San Francisco/Seattle -Best City Skyline
San Francisco/Chicago -Most Exciting Downtown
San Francisco/Chicago/Las Vegas/Miami -Best Nightlife
San Francisco/San Diego/Honolulu -Best Living
San Francisco/San Diego -Most Manageable Weather:
San Francisco/Chicago/DC/Boston -Best Culture and/or Purpose:
San Francisco/Seattle/Honolulu -Most Beautiful Natural Surroundings/Setting:
