The first set of cities are on the west coast, and the second set of cities are on the east coast.

How would you rate these two sets based on:

Economy
Nightlife
Weather
Urban living
Public transport
Education
Diversity
Scenery
Culture

Which set do you prefer? Discuss.

Economy - Tie
Nightlife - Tie
Weather - Los Angeles, San Francisco, & Seattle
Urban living - Tie
Public transport - Tie
Education - Boston, Philadelphia, & Washington, D.C.
Diversity - Boston, Philadelphia, & Washington, D.C.
Scenery - Los Angeles, San Francisco, & Seattle
Culture - Boston, Philadelphia & Washington, D.C.

These cities are pretty similar but I think Boston, Philadelphia, & Washington, D.C. win in more important categories. You could find anything you are looking for in any of these cities.

I meant to include a poll, but I guess it's too late.

Basically, I'm comparing the top 3 cities on the Pacific coast with the #2 to 4 cities on the east coast.

^By your first post on the top, it should say thread tools somewhere. Click on that and one should say "Add a poll to this thread." I've done it before.
