NYC - Chicago when it comes to food, skylines and crime

NYC - Boston/Philly when it comes to sports

LA - SF when it comes to everything

NYC - Boston
NYC - Philly
DC - Baltimore
LA - SF
Minnapolis - St Paul

I don't think there is a rivalry between NYC and Chicago, any such rivalry is completely on the Chicago side. NYC does not consider chicago a rival

In a secondary matchup regarding educational data
