Most Urban: Richmond vs. New Orleans vs. Baltimore vs. Milwaukee (compare, population)

[Shakeesha]

Which city is the most urban? Compare in terms of developed areas, population, residences, and street activity.

[_OT]

Baltimore
New Orleans
Richmond
Milwaukee

Although I prefer New Orleans form of Urbanism; personally, Baltimore's can't get a bit depressing in terms of housing or living environment. Midtown/Mt. Vernon were cool, but the rest of Bmore lacked "excitement."

Bmore

Not close - it's Baltimore

[i'm not a cookie]

Yeah Baltimore should be taken out of this thread, it won't even be a competition if it is included.

[Spade]

Baltimore
New Orleans
Richmond
Milwaukee

In that order

Excitement can be had in Downtown, Fells Point, Harbor East, Federal Hill, Station North, which are equally, if not more exciting than Mount Vernon.

In terms of urbanity:

1. Baltimore
2. Milwaukee
3. New Orleans
4. Richmond

Though New Orleans is my favorite city in that group.

I'd say new orleans without a doubt. Giving more points for functional street life.

What do you mean by "functional street life"?
