Whatever you want to call it. Keep in mind, the vast majority of cities value the exact opposite.
Most cities:
Sit on the couch the second you get home from work (ice cold beer in hand), put on your favorite sitcom, grab some fast food everyday, be modest as possible.
What you mean is "places where people have an inferiority complex and constantly need to validate themselves through display of material possessions becuase they could never get the opposite sex interested otherwise nor feel worthwhile in life"
In other words, pure hell for me or any other spiritual folks out there
Lol, you say that when just the other day, I saw a Ferrari and a few Beamers parked out in front of this old Catholic church.
Don't know what the occasion was, but obviously someone felt the need the show how blessed they were by God.
But to be fair, it's more fashionable to own a boat in this area. Anyone can drive a fancy car but the real life of snobbery...I mean... luxury... is on your own personal boat nestled nicely within a yacht club with its own private park that's only available to the local residents of the municipality.
Also, the gym thing is popular here...but then so too are hamburgers and twinkies.
Im not impressed by flash cars, but I do appreciate people that restore classics (cars, planes, boats)
and BEcause of the generally dry climate here you see some pretty impressive restorations.
Going to the gym (working out) is not impressive. its just something you do.

All of America should go to the gym, it would solve a lot of problems.
I don't think anybody has a problem with people with money and spending it on nice things. They are however annoyed by the people who are obviously leasing their nice cars without being able to afford it, running up debt, don't actually have money and act like complete douche bags. Then go and talk about how much they have and rub it in your face.
Basically places that are free of the "reverse superficiality", meaning when one thinks they are better than you - for not being what would normally be considered superficial.
List would be:
Los Angeles (several parts of town are glamorous)
Las Vegas (enough said)
Miami (South Beach)
New York (Manhattan)
Possibly parts of Dallas (Uptown) and Atlanta (Buckhead) as well.
Any thoughts?
I think that is a pretty good list for the type of environment you are talking about.
I would imagine there are some areas of Chicago and Houston that would also qualify. Maybe Honolulu and Phoenix (or maybe Scottsdale or Glendale) as well?
I'm not sure about showing off there cars, homes, etc, but Chicago people can dress there a** off ! I was amazed at there taste of fashion, and I don't think people are too worried about the gym there. lol
I didn't think people in Chicago dressed that well from what I saw, something like Boston maybe. Nothing like LA/SF/Miami/NYC though.
