This poster gets it. LA is already an amazing city and is more iconic in the US and the world than any city besides NYC so seriously the OP post is kind of lame.
Exactly, OP seems to be a Seattle booster. How anyone can think Seattle is more iconic and urban is likely someone who has only ever been in LA for a day or two.

Did you just agree with yourself?
LA is not an iconic urban city. We can put that to rest right now. Yes LA is more urban than many think, but it's not up there with the rest of these cities.

Did you forget to switch screen names?
I've already said that I think LA is very iconic and has all the big city amenities you could want. But in terms of an urban environment it's not on the level of the six I mentioned (neither is Seattle). I voted for LA, by the way.
That is a cop out response. You really need to do some research on US cities and their future growth. You don't list any Texas city on your list even though they are #4,#7,#9, and #11 highest in population and you are unaware of the growing cities of the South.
Most Southern cities have enormous boundaries, so those populations largely seem very inflated vs. what is actually urban about them. The Houston vs. Chicago is a good example of this.
There is nothing special about Baghdad... I meant St. Louis. It's an absolute ****hole. Seriously? You have no credibility when you call out other places. Cleveland, Pittsburgh and Detroit mop the floor with your sad, crime ridden hell-hole of a city
If you're gonna talk trash, at least reveal yourself and don't hide behind the anonymity of a rep notification like a coward. You're not quite so tough if you're too afraid to show who you are.

Not really. While the boundaries of Houston are larger than Chicago's, people aren't spread around the place; there is a clear bulk of concentration in a given area.
Houston's city limits are a large percentage of its metro, CSA, or UA population. His point was correct.
