I love both cities the same. Since the poll is asking a specific question I will choose St.Louis. Not because it's "better" (that's so subjective) but because facts indicate St. Louis is poised for more of an economic come back.
More good news for St. Louis. In just the last week, Boeing has announced that it is moving its IT center from Seattle to STL. The center will bring 600 jobs to the area. Also in the last week, Express Scripts said it will add 1,500 new jobs to STL. The average pay for those jobs will be $60,000 per year. Add that to Charter and Monsanto's expansions and in just a few months St. Louis has gained nearly 4,000 jobs. That doesn't even count all of the new tech start ups that are popping up downtown.

That's all good news for St. Louis but won't be if you keep posting the announcements on CD!
This is great! 1,500 jobs x $65,000/year is a great deal of awesome new people. At St. Louis cost of living, they can live a solid and comfortable middle class life too.
Now we just have to see if the rumored new Google corporate office ever opens in St. Louis.
Not THE corporate office, just a local office like they have in Chicago, Boston, and a few other cities. There were rumors floating around local circles a few weeks ago but nothing has come of it so far.
Too many from the sun belt think that St Louis is washed up. If they only knew what was happening there more people would be moving there. Keep it as one of the best kept secrets for as long as possible.
