Wheeling, WV easily. Nice historic Downtown with a public market. Cheap. Safe. Close to either Pittsburgh or Columbus for day-trips. Lots of beautiful surrounding mountains and state parks for hiking.

NEXT: Murfreesboro, TN or Paducah, KY?
Easy. Murfreesboro, TN. Fastest growing major city in TN. One big construction zone lol. Alma mater MTSU is major force. Much larger economy than Paducah.

Huntsville, AL or Colorado Springs, CO?
Colorado Springs... Huntsville may be one of the better places to live in the deep south but culturally CS is a much better fit for me, and the access to amazing outdoor recreation and relative proximity to Denver make CS the runaway choice here.
Hmmmm. I view both as being affluent, "brainy", expensive, techie, white people cities. Seattle's an actual standalone city that anchors a metro area whereas Arlington complements both Alexandria and DC to form the core of a major metro area. I'd have to pick Arlington for a few reasons---no risk of major earthquakes (Seattle's overdue for a major one) and it is less geographically-isolated, as you can be in Richmond, DC, Baltimore, Philadelphia, NYC, or Pittsburgh relatively quickly from Arlington (4 hour-5 hour drive) whereas within that same distance radius from Seattle you'd get Spokane, Vancouver, and Portland. I mean I could live in Clarendon or Court House in Arlington and be no further from the happening spots in DC than living in West Seattle and being near the action of Seattle. Arlington is also less violent in terms of crime than Seattle and has less of a visible homeless epidemic.

NEXT: Carson City, NV or Jefferson City, MO?
Carson City, Nev., but this is largely on the basis of my youthful memories of Jeff City. Even though it's grown since then, it still strikes me as a fairly sleepy place.
Harrisburg or Lancaster, Pa.?
