I'm not surprised that it's not on the list. Is expensive, not (mainstream) trendy and large contingents of the country look down on it in order to keep up their own unjustified superiority complexes.
Does it belong on the list? Eh, probably not but even if it did (does) you'd probably never see on the list anyways.
Why do you think Los Angeles isn't trendy? If your city has one of these posters, then it's "trendy" imo.
I searched for the Cleveland poster. No luck. However, I did find: Toronto, Austin, San Francisco, Chicago, Philadelphia, Manhattan, Brooklyn, London, Paris, Madison, Twin Cities, Portland, Seattle, Boston, Des Moines and Denver.
DC gets old way faster than Paris. That's not a good comparison. DC is also nearly 3 times the size of Manhattan. Which one do you think you'll run out of stuff to do in first?
Neither are boring, which is his point. If you need NYC or more to keep you entertained it may be time to visit a psychiatrist. DC is not only not boring but it's crammed with interesting things to do.
Yeah, if Seattle isn't tops then the list is useless, right? Seattle gets plenty of love, I wouldn't worry about it: you still live in the trendiest city in the country.
It is highly likely that if they provided the top 15 places, Seattle would be there...probably no lower than 12th IMO.

Des Moines? Now that is a surprise, but a good one if someone is from Iowa. The firm that makes these must be there. LOL!
Can't make people from Cleveland too happy though. I would have assumed that Pittsburgh and Atlanta would each have a poster. I would guess the list above is not complete, but still a good list.
Kudos to Minneapolis/St. Paul for placing 2nd on that disposable income list after DC, too!
Some of the "best neighborhoods for Millenials" listed for each city is pretty funny(and seems entirely random).
They list the best for Seattle as Eastlake and the best for LA as Palms and San Francisco as Cow Hollow... And then the best for San Jose is "old Mountain View" (not in San Jose).

It's LA so it's always sort of trendy, but nearly as much as NYC, SF, Seattle, Austin, Boston are right now. LA has been super trendy in decades past for sure.

Maybe because LA is so large, that the trendiness feels a little more dispersed, but plenty of LA neighborhoods are known for being very trendy right now(and have been for some years). At least on the West Coast I get that feeling based on what places you constantly hear about again and again.
Maybe because LA doesn't have a situation like with smaller cities where well over half the city is gentrified, but Silver Lake/Los Feliz/Echo Park are firmly on the "hipster" circuit, Downtown LA is now getting written up for having all the same hip amenties you find in parts of New York, San Francisco, Portland, etc... Ask a random trendy transplant in Portland or Seattle and half of them just moved from LA or will move there next(if they haven't already lived in San Francisco and Brooklyn). It seems like a sort of revolving door of those locations for those kids...
And I hate using the word "hipster" but we all know what that cliche means...

LA also got a "low" crime score which is better than most in the top 10 (Anyone surprised MSP was ranked "average".) You can tell the author had no idea what they were talking about when they said the up and coming neighborhood is "Palms." I work near palms and it's boring and expensive. It should clearly be one of the hipster neighborhoods (Echo Park, Highland Park or Silver Lake) or something yuppie (Santa Monica) for LA.
I just can't get over NYC as number 1. The list is clearly rigged.
In SF / MUNI the buses / trains / cars look so clean when they upgrade the fleets but the stations still look gross
