Cincinnati, since I wouldn't have interest living in upstate NY myself. I'm sure Rochester(as far as upstate NY places go) isn't bad to live in, but to me I'd feel more comfortable living in Cincy.
I was originally going to answer the previous comparison, but didn't since I forgot to submit a comment answering that in time. Ah well, I'll answer anyway Anyway would've picked Muskogee, since I like how it isn't far from Tulsa, the lakes of eastern Oklahoma, and Northwest Arkansas. Also isn't far from other parts of the Ozarks in Missouri and Arkansas, or Dallas either.
While I like how Dodge City has a station on the Amtrak Southwest Chief route, to me I don't like how that train stops there during overnight hours. Also to me, Dodge City is too isolated of a town, IMO. Maybe if a different town has been picked for this(i.e. Hutchinson, KS, or Newton) that isn't as far away from Wichita, this would've been harder for me to pick between.
Sports hall of fame cities: Canton, OH(football), or Springfield, MA(basketball)?
Springfield, Mass. The years may not have been as kind to it as they should have been, but it's located in the attractive Connecticut River valley, has a decent downtown, and is both bigger and closer to a slew of other places than Canton is.
Now a James Naismith (basketball's inventor) tie:
Springfield, Mass., where he invented the game, or Lawrence, Kan., where he introduced it to American higher education as the athletic director at the University of Kansas?

Both are pretty good, but I'll go Denver because it's less congested, and has nice mountains to the west.
St. Paul, MN or Fort Worth, TX?
This one is not even close. Fort Worth by miles.
First of all, I absolutely loathe winter weather, and Minnesota is one of the worst states for that.
Second, I like the Fort Worth culture better. It embraces the Cowboy stereotype of Texas, which I find kind of interesting. When I think of Texas, I think of cattle and cowboy hats, that old West image. Fort Worth has the stockyards that live up to that.

Concord, NH or Augusta, Ga?
Augusta, since I'd rather live somewhere warmer than Concord. I'm sure Concord is okay, but I'd rather have warmer weather. Plus a street with old school street running in downtown Augusta, for the win!
Two I-95 cities that often seem to be forgotten about in the Carolinas. And except if say someone driving has to do a pit stop, seem to be forgotten and not thought about much: Fayetteville, NC, or Florence, SC?

Fayetteville... Neither city would be close to my top choices in either state but Fayetteville is a lot larger so I'd assume that would equate to a greater variety of neighborhoods and better access to jobs/amenities.

Albion, NY or Albion, MI?
Albion, MI. It has a college in town(Albion College), and it has Amtrak service too(to both Chicago and the Detroit area). Why all Amtrak scheduled trains from Chicago-Pontiac don't stop in Albion(only 2 out of 6 stop here each day, 1 in each direction. a westbound train early in the morning, and an eastbound train in the mid evening), I have no idea why. It's something where I think that's kinda stupid, and to me I wish all scheduled trains stopped in Albion if you ask me. Also, I worry that lake effect snow would probably be an issue(along with wind chills), due to how not too far south Albion is from Lake Ontario.
Where 2 of the colleges are located, that pulled off top 10 college basketball upsets on Saturday, February 26: Fayetteville, AR(Arkansas beating Kentucky), or Knoxville, TN(Tennessee beating Auburn)?
Al because it's a little closer to larger cities like Birmingham. Fresno CA or Bakersfield CA?
Definitely Fresno. It's a bit rougher but feels like a much bigger city, despite the two being close in both city proper and MSA population. As far as nearby cities go, I'd much rather have the access to the Bay Area + Sac + Reno than LA + SD, and the drives to those cities are also more pleasant (on 5 or 99 to LA, all you get is the dry and brown San Gabriels).
Alamogordo, NM or Frankfort, MI?
