Although I do not completely agree with this list what is your opinion on it? Personally I think this list is going by reputation.
I find that the most popular cities are rarely the best ones in which to actually live. It's easy to spend a weekend in a place like Portland and think, hey, this is a great place. But, after living for a year in Oregon, there's no way I'd ever want to live in Portland.
Oh, and to point out Portland, OR is ranked overall at NUMBER 1 as the most unhappiest city to live in http://http://images.businessweek.com/ss/09/02/0226_miserable_cities/2.htm (broken link)
LA being so low is just hilarious. Aside from NY, LA is easily the most desired and dreamed-of city in the US. I would never expect LA to rank high in a list like this because like NY and all other megacities, it is polarizing and there always tons of people who hate it. But it's certainly not one of the the least favorite among Americans.

You think? Maybe in 1975. I think that after the gangs, riots, fires, mudslides, earthquakes, illegal immigration, murders, etc., that most of the country has a negative view of LA.
lol my thoughts exactly. I wouldn't take this anymore seriously then the "paranormal Activity" movies.
