As far as amenities, Indianapolis has bike paths too. The mountains are overrated because the view isn't that spectacular and you really can write off going into them if you try to go there on a weekend because of traffic. It seems like weather and mountains must be big draws for people though.

Denver actually looks like that during the warmer months though

I guess it really depends on what's considered downtown for either city.

Regardless, all those quotes are just opinion based anyways such as this gem, "..Denver is downright provincial compared to Boston."

Personally, I quite like Boston (a lot) and I'd move there in a heartbeat if given the chance.

There's a dead part around Post Office Square, but Quincy Market/Fanueil Hall & Downtown Crossing are usually very busy at night.
