it is not about economic clouts solely. the op asked which do we think was best and he gave various categories, of which economics was one. don't list all the ways in which those two counties are better for me, in the end it comes to personal choice and if someone believes that Wichita is the best city in the US, then even if 90 percent of us disagree then it is still the chooser's choice.

Well then I will be hopeful that someone can provide some criteria to backup their votes until then it seems very suspect...

Of course they are suspect. I'll bet fifty bucks those votes are from fake accounts. lol.

Do you even know which i chose HTown? I laid out why I think the top two are very close. On all criteria and still have yet to see one post that explains why another would surpass either of the two top contenders. I am just waiting on some facts. I am done with this diatribe

No dont think fake accounts but the only rationale for Montgomery TX is that it has Piney woods. I don't believe that based on the criteria any of the other Montgomery Counties than the MD and PA would even be close, and with all the votes i am very curious what the rationale is...

Montgomery County MD and PA are truly beasts among counties in the US

I prefer not to bicker in these mindless back and forth swings (or to get involved with such) at each other over petty ONLINE polls. So I'm just sticking to pictures since this thread has a lack of, and an abundance of brainless bickering.
I'm also having a very confusing day, classes were canceled on an account of some gun man on campus, S.W.A.T trucks and cops everywhere here in Austin and right now it doesn't seem like anyone is truly allowed to be wondering around the streets while they search for an accomplice to the gun man.

I am voting for the one in Pennsylvania (or at least will attempt to, but I want to see more on the one in MD before officially voting) because if the pictures Rainrock posted are accurate, then I like that one the best. I haven't been to any of the others besides the one in Texas. (I think, I wouldn't know)

Here are some pictures for Montgomery County, Texas, click the "show" button to view them, its no where as traditional as the one that Rainrock provided the pictures too, but its nice (even though I wouldn't live there- Fort Bend is 9000X better):
Spoiler








EDIT: I truly like the tab feature much better, because it places pictures under a tab, so that way when you share pictures, it doesn't hog up the entire page and slow done refresh or page visiting and just take forever to load a page. Tab FTW!

I put in Montgomery County Missouri, just to be a wise ass.

There is no way one can vote on this entire poll objectively unless they've been to all the counties.
