Santa Fe also has amazing food and I can't get enough green chile. It has an agreeable four season climate with abundant sunshine and overall the city is very charming, walkable, and attractive with stellar scenery. I'll go with Santa Fe.

Albuquerque, NM or Rochester, NY?
Albuquerque. I can't STAND freezing temperatures for months. Rather burn up than freeze.

Rogers, AR or St. Joseph, MO?

Close call. I would choose St. Joseph due to being closer to a large metro area. I also don't know as much about it which is exciting.

Eureka, CA or Farragut, TN?

Eureka, Ca. Much better climate and more diversity. Farragut is over 70% one race and is far too conservative for my taste.

Portland Oregon or Orlando Florida?

Orlando. This is a tough one actually because I prefer Portland’s climate and recreation is wayyyy better. However, it’s homelessness, drug scene, and high taxes are something I can’t get past. Plus, Orlando is actually a pretty good city. I’ll take Orlando, but if I did do Portland I’d have to live on the Washington side of the Columbia.

Atlanta or Charlotte

I will choose Atlanta due to its size and options for life being greater.

Orlando or Pittsburgh?

Pittsburgh for being more progressive and having more things to do not tourist related. It is a city that gets dumped on a lot which makes it more interesting to me. I also like the urban character and things to do.

Madison, WI or Columbus, OH?

Really tough one. Madison is more my speed culturally but it's so much smaller. Madison's closer to family in Chicagoland... can't decide if that's a plus or a minus. I guess I'll give the edge to Madison since it seems to be making more efforts to urbanize (afaik), and I'd guess the public transit is better.

Paducah, KY or Bismarck, ND?

Paducah due to location. Easy day trips to Nashville or St. Louis. Also, the people are very friendly and I would enjoy exploring the natural surroundings of the Ohio River. The region has potential, it just needs more jobs.

Prattville, AL or Ridgeland, MS?

Neither does anything for me but I'd go with Prattville. I'd rather be near Montgomery than Jackson. Topeka KS or Pueblo CO?

I guess Topeka, it seems a bit more culturally interesting and it has more cities around it (Lawrence, KC, and sort of Manhattan).

Two towns with tiny populations, which mostly serve as the home for amusement parks and/or industry: Lake Buena Vista, FL or Lakeside, CO?
