Sacramento California was 1 and Los Angeles California was the other.

They Actively set out to call themselves "The City of Trees" about 7 years ago.
And Los Angeles was claiming that THEY were the "City of Trees".

Does that answer your question.

I live in the Bay area and I've never heard anyone call it The Golden Gate City..
wtbs.. I think your idea is good.

A better question to ask the posters is:
What do you think should be Dallas' nickname?

So Dallas Natives and Transplants..
What is a fitting nickname for Dallas?
