I'll go with LA because both are big in entertainment and have bad traffic. Is Houston more similar to Indianapolis or Columbus?
Columbus, whose downtown and adjacent areas don't have the somnambulant feel of Indy's.
Is Lancaster, Pa., more like Portland, Me., or Charlottesville, Va.? (I consider all three of these places among the finest smaller cities on the East Coast.)

Not familiar with any of them but I'm going with Charlottesville. Both are inland cities. Is Morgantown WV more similar to Jackson TN or San Angelo TX?

Jackson, WV, at least Jackson is in a state that shares the Appalachians
Is South Bend, IN more similar to Lincoln, NE or State College, PA?
I'd say Macon. Both of their economies are more similar. Is Pascagoula MS more similar to Panama City FL or Lake Charles LA?
Climate wise and politics wise all three of those cities are similar to each other, all located near or on the Gulf Coast. I'd only say more similar to Panama City, FL because both are located along the coast while Lake Charles is not. Culturally, Pascagoula is more similar to Lake Charles, LA though.
Is Columbia, SC more similar to Columbus, GA or Birmingham, AL?

Columbus, GA. Both small town feel, stable economies, overshadowed by other state metros.
Is Nashville more similar to Cincinnati or Oklahoma City?

Looks like we're running into Seasonal Rot since you've already asked this question in the EXACT ORDER back in June, but I'll have to go with OKC. Both have pathetic transit for a metro their size, dominated by chain retailers, and is located along I-40 with long, hot summers and short, mild winters. CIN is more stagnant, has more of a winter, and while conservative for urban OH (it has a surprisingly large country music fanbase), still has that "legacy city" vibe that you won't find in the other two (it was already a major city by the Civil War and the Midwest's largest until St. Louis passed it in the late 1800s), and has the MLB that Nashville lacks. OKC didn't boom until after the Civil War, but like NTN (surprised that acronym hasn't caught on like ATL or HOU), its a state where its WASP demographic is disproportionally represented in the popular mind and culture, and doesn't have a significant Catholic population like CIN (which ironically isn't as Bible Belt-y as the other two). Its my counteropinion to brock2010's however.
Now for some ALL NEW cities!
Is Evanston, IL more similar to Hoboken, NJ or Emeryville, CA?

I'd probably pick Hoboken. More similar culturally I'd guess. Is Cincinnati more similar to Cleveland or Louisville?

Cleveland based on population, built environment, culture, and things to do.
Is Tucson more similar to Boise, ID or Jacksonville, FL?
