Perryton, TX or Providence, KY?
Providence, KY because it is less isolated. Providence looks to have nice parks.

Mt. Pleasant, TN or Niceville, FL?

Mt Pleasant...Making this decision based more so on the region, and not the towns themselves. The Florida panhandle is generally not a very attractive place for me to live. Mt Pleasant, while a bit far removed from the Nashville core, is still close enough to there as well as some other attractive places and I just like the look and feel of that area better.

Long Beach, CA or Tampa, FL?

I'll pick Tampa, between these 2 places. Lower crime, and the cost of living seems to be a little less in Tampa.

Back to looking at state line communities. West Point, GA, or McCaysville, GA?

I'd pick West Point.

McCaysville, while in a beautiful setting, is too touristy and isolated. The West Point/Lanett/Valley area just offers much more for day to day living.

Galveston, Texas or San Antonio, Texas?

Galveston. The Strand is reminiscent of New Orleans' French Quarter, and the beaches there are quite nice. And while I wouldn't slight the Alamo and Paseo del Rio, Galveston is also just an hour away from Houston, a very diverse and very welcoming city.

Kansas City, Kan., or Wichita, Kan.? (One is the state's largest city, the other part of its largest urban area.)

KCK... It seems like Wichita has more to offer as a city but I'd rather live in the larger metro area with more jobs/amenities. I know Kansas City, Kan isn't very well regarded but it's larger enough to have plenty of livable areas in its city limits.

Keeping up with the theme of largest city vs largest urban area in the same state:

Des Moines, IA or Council Bluffs, IA?

I think I'd pick Council Bluffs. I like that it has a small town feel while still being right next to a big city. I also like that it feels more western as opposed to purely midwestern as Des Moines does.

Another in-state comparison:

Plant City, Florida or Flagler Beach, Florida?

Flagler Beach. Better location and things to do.

Murfreesboro, TN or Clarksville, TN?

Murfreesboro because it's closer to Nashville, and a bit safer.

Brownsville, TX or Dalhart, TX

Brownsville. The TX panhandle is not for me. Wind, dust, and treeless expanses are not my cup of tea. Living in South Texas would give me an opportunity to brush up on my Spanish

Alexander City, Alabama or Hamilton, Alabama?
