Amongst the major cities, Curitiba, for sure.
Joinville, Blumenau and Caxias do Sul are other large cities with little to do with the brazilian stereotypes.

The capital Bogota is the most out of place relative to the typical world view of Colombia. Cold, rainy, cloudy with industrial brick architecture, prone to fog and even icy conditions a few times.
This may sound weird, but I always felt like NYC differs from the archetypal American city. While most cities in the US are characterised by a definitive CBD that becomes quiet after hours, with lots of suburban sprawl and an inadequate level of public transportation , New York breaks most of these stereotypes. It has a vast subway network, a highly urbanized core that remains lively throughout the week. It’s kinda ironic when you consider the fact that NYC is often used as the poster boy of the US, yet in many ways it’s a quite atypical American city.

Yeah. The life style of New Yorkers is very different from others.
