Is Raleigh more similar to Nashville or Austin?
Nashville. It has a larger college student population like Nashville and similar high ranking healthcare institutions (Vanderbilt/Duke). Both have other mid sized cities in their regions unlike Austin. Both have Scots Irish and English influences not as present in Austin. Both have more freeways and more diverse economies. Both are very sprawly.

Is Charlotte, NC more similar to Cincinnati, OH or Orlando, FL?

Is Charlotte, NC more similar to Cincinnati, OH or Orlando, FL?
I'd say Cincinnati. Since the demographics of those 2 are more similar, vs near Orlando.

Is Chattanooga more like Atlanta, or Nashville?

Atlanta? Chattanooga's primarily known as a transportation crossroads (particularly trains) with nearby cities with good nature nearby and old industrial age building stock. Atlanta's weaker on the nature reputation bit (Chattanooga's just that high up there), but has a bit more history with the rest. Nashville, on the other hand, it a bit more historically isolated in comparison.

Is Mobile more like New Orleans or Pensacola?

Is Mobile more like New Orleans or Pensacola?
Pensacola based on size and demographics. Both are influences by New Orleans, but It feels smaller and has better beach access.

Is Knoxville, TN more similar to Memphis, TN or Raleigh, NC?

I'll guess Raleigh, since Memphis has a higher black population than the other 2. And since they both have local public and private colleges that are well known. Probably more than just obviously University of Tennessee for Knoxville, and North Carolina State for Raleigh.

Is Brunswick, ME more like Augusta, ME, or Portland, ME?

Is Brunswick, ME more like Augusta, ME, or Portland, ME?
I'd say Brunswick. It is on the coast while Augusta is inland. Also Brunswick is part of Portland's MSA. Only size wise Brunswick and Augusta are about equal.

Is Eugene, OR more like Salem or Medford, OR?

Salem. They're both about the same size and not as isolated as Medford. Is Bend OR more similar to Redding CA or Missoula MT?

Missoula. Since per looking up and looking at statistics for all 3 places(along with local resident reviews), Bend and Missoula have less rainfall vs. Redding. Plus the former 2 have more new residents moving there, vs. new residents into Redding.

Is Boise more like Spokane, or Salt Lake City?

Is Boise more like Spokane, or Salt Lake City?
Spokane based on size and economy. Both have more agriculture based industries while Salt Lake City is significantly larger with more service based industries.

Is Murfreesboro, TN more similar to Cary, NC or Columbia, MO?

Cary by far, being outer suburbs of nearby state capitals of sunbelt states, whereas Columbia is a college town and isolated from a nearby larger city.

Is Rehoboth Beach more similar to Old Orchard Beach, ME or Carolina Beach, NC?
