I'd be hard pressed to name a single "sophisticated" major US city. While one can do "sophisticated" things in many cities, I'd hesitate to suggest the average patron of such amenities is a sophisticate.
When I think of sophisticated places in the US, they're usually smaller towns, e.g. Westport, CT; New Hope, PA; Carmel, CA; etc.
