If you have the money to REALLY play, it's Miami... followed by Atl and then Houston (Nola Pre-Katrina would have been 3rd, but I'm gonna have to bump it to 4th... maybe 5th interchangeable with DC).
it's below the Mason Dixon.
Ok, let me clarify to specify that I mean every day life, for the widest group of people.
Like I’m sure Las Vegas can offer you very exotic singular experiences, but I wouldn’t want to live there over places Chicago, LA, etc because they better every day life events for more demographics.
First and foremost, in comparison to the cities that you listed, DC is not a "Southern City" and should not be listed. I lived in DC for several years and I can tell you first hand that DC is NOT part of the South.
With that said, all of the cities listed offer different variations of entertainment and excitement, each has something unique to offer.. However, IMHO if I had to pick one then I would go with Orlando, this is one of the top up and coming cities in the country, a magnet for millennial and young professionals, situated in the center of the fastest growing state in the country, and of course is famous for world class entertainment.
Too many people are worried about what DC is classified as, if you don’t feel it’s southern don’t vote for it. Miami, Atlanta, and perhaps New Orelans are just as exciting if not moreso.
Of the list I would favor New Orleans. Maybe Austin following behind. I don’t find film crews exciting or entertaining — we have plenty. I can’t judge Nashville or Charlotte as I’ve never spent more than a few hours there. It depends on what you like.
According to this article, DC and Atlanta aren’t anything alike.
Lol, an article similar to this could easily be written about Atlanta as well. The difference is Atlanta isn't nearly as preoccupied with proving itself to be "cool" and "hip."
