Economy - Probably tied.. unsure
Culture - New Orleans
Amentities -Tie
Tourism - New Orleans
Greenspace, Parks, access to water - New Orleans sits directly on water and has one of the largest urban parks in the country... Hell, they both sit on water so it's probably a tie.
Public Transportation - New Orleans
Weather - Not that much different I don't think.
Proximity - (Proximity to what?)

[annie_himself]

Proximity to cities, amenities, etc..

[mikey1984]

New Orleans has it's own city brand! Jax is not quite on the same level on certain things.

Economy - Jacksonville
Culture - New Orleans
Amentities - Tie
Tourism - New Orleans
Greenspace, Parks, access to water - Jacksonville

Since culture is big (IMO), it's a tie.

I would say jax in every one except culture and public transportation.

[annie_himself]

What about tourism? ^
No way Jax has more.

I would now say New Orleans wins the amenities category.

[Bizurko]

I dunno you may be right about tourism but amenities i would give to jax. I know you can find everything thats in n.o. In Jax except a giant mardi gras.

[Dport7674]

New Orleans has style and soul.

Jacksonville what??? The city doesn't get any love in its home state.
