It would have to be Miami or Houston since the topic is cities not metros. Yes Miami city doesn't have as many people, but all its continuous high rises and walkable neighborhoods make it feel more so.

I agree with Mr Lemonjello. For me it's Miami or Houston.

Those two feel the biggest all around to me

Then Miami. Miami seems like it goes on forever and forever.

Houston is just big all around. It's so large that each part of the metro feels different from the other part.

Miami has one of the best skyline in southeast. When you fly into Houston, it looks like there are 7 cities.

I don't see why Atlanta is second in this poll. It feels smallest of the big 4.

When you consider that those 7 skylines are all in ONE city, doesn't that make a stronger case for Houston feeling bigger?

It's more unbelievable to me that Miami is somehow third.
