well, some cities need to post something to feel good about themselves. With the sunbelt now so popular in the real world, the already built cities need something they can cling to

I'm pretty sure this is what the OP was talking about in this whole dynamic of "Country Big Cities".

Charlotte, NC - Google Maps

Hey. How do other people feel about my post and how I ranked certain cities?

Richmond(I assume you mean the Virginia one): 8

Atlanta: 5
Jacksonville: 8
Cleveland: 4
Pittsburgh: 5
New Orleans:5
Dallas: 4
Houston:4
Detroit: 4
Orlando: 6
Indianapolis:6
Los Angeles: 3
Phoenix: 8

Also, I will put other USA cities in this too:
Chicago: 1
New York:1
San Francisco:1
Seattle: 3
Boston: 2
Philadelphia: 2
San Diego: 4
Austin: 6
Minneapolis: 6
Honolulu: 5
Anchorage:9
Denver: 6
Portland: 5
Las Vegas: 8
Burlington Vermont:9
Little Rock: 9
Billings Montana: 10
Cheyenne: 10
Boulder:9
Provincetown:9
Eureka: 10
Bend: 10
Aspen:9
Santa Fe: 10
Sacramento: 8
Omaha:6


Some cities may get the same number grade but express it a bit differently from each other.
.
Most cities that get a 3,2, and 1 from me I like those cities.
There are some cities that I like that get a 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, or 10 but less cities that I like that have those number grades than a 3,2, and 1.


I would say anything that is 1 to 3 are much more urban than being country, 5 means they are urban and country at the same time, 4 means it is slightly more urban than country, 6 means it is slightly more country than urban, and 7 to 10 means they are much more country than being urban.

How is New Orleans urban and country? Mostly urban to me. Nothing country about it.

This post doesn't make sense. Aren't all cities urban? Why would you list a group of cities and tell us which ones seem the most country, you realize what country is right? You will not find a country-style farm in LA.
