Which is more like Kansas City, Denver or Indianapolis?
Indianapolis. More of a mid-western city and overall layout

Is Richmond VA more similar to Memphis TN or Columbus OH?

I'd say Greenville. Both part of fast growing metros and in the north central parts of their states. Is Petaluma CA more similar to Schaumburg IL or Franklin TN?

Casper, no doubt. Concord is more urban, whereas Casper is sparser. Also, Casper is more oil-based, like Fairbanks.

Is Casper more similar to Boise, ID or Lincoln, NE?

Boise... would not have guessed that Casper was over 100 miles closer to Lincoln but I think the fact that both cities share a distinct mountain west culture make them more similar than Casper and Lincoln which is more influenced by the Great Plains/midwest.

Is Austin, TX more similar to Charlotte, NC or Orlando, FL?

Is Austin, TX more similar to Charlotte, NC or Orlando, FL?
Charlotte based on economic growth, skyline, and technology based jobs. Both are inland and becoming expensive.

Is Charleston, WV more similar to Madison, WI or Toledo, OH?

Toledo, because it's more of a rust belt city than Madison. Madison never had the industrial history Toledo did.

Is Toledo, OH more similar to Gary, IN or Youngstown, OH?
