Garden District - New Orleans, Louisiana

or

College Hill - Providence, Rhode Island?

I'll take the Garden District, just looks to have more going on and more random businesses on side streets. Not every day that a Southern city beats out a Northeastern city in density/urbanity.

Going with Greenville for the murals and the narrower, more human-scale street.

Transitional areas in Seattle, places that aren't really part of any neighborhood:

Leary Way NW

or

Lake City Way NE?

I definitely prefer Lake City Way NE. I like the wooded feel with all of the trees; and that homeless camp in the Leary Way shot is not exactly endearing.

Lakeshore Dr. - Lake Village, Arkansas

or

Lakeshore Dr. - Lake City, Minnesota?

Prefer the unobstructed access to the water in Lake Village.

East Little Havana, Miami, FL

or

Whittier, Minneapolis, MN

Both have interesting architecture, but I'll go with East Little Havana due to the proximity/view of Downtown.

Meadowbrook, Syracuse: https://www.google.com/maps/@43.0392...7i13312!8i6656

or

Beaver Hills, New Haven: https://www.google.com/maps/@41.3220...7i16384!8i8192

I like the architecture in both neighborhoods and they're in good shape, but i'll have to pick New Haven, it looks more appealing in my opinion. Meadowbrook looks nice but too familiar for me.

Hattiesburg, MS

or

Alexandria, LA

I prefer Alexandria. The homes appear a bit nicer, and I like the abundance of trees and vegetation. The brick-paved street is nice too.

Neighborhood adjacent to CampingWorld Stadium - Orlando, Florida

or

Neighborhood adjacent to Hard Rock Stadium - Miami Gardens, Florida?

I'll go with Miami Gardens because there is less empty space than the Orlando shot.

Hastings-Sunrise, Vancouver, BC

or

Meadow Homes, Vancouver, WA

I'm always surprised how unlike Seattle the residential areas of Vancouver BC look. That area in Vancouver WA wouldn't look out of place in parts of north Seattle (Bitter Lake, Pinehurst, Victory Heights). Vancouver BC looks much better maintained with prettier landscaping, as well as a lot of fences which are less common in Seattle. It's also a bit odd that despite Canada's reputation for density, Vancouver BC has fairly wide parkways in front of the sidewalks.

I think Vancouver BC actually reminds me of Minneapolis more than anywhere else, visually. MPLS is probably in my top 10 major US cities, while Vancouver WA has never impressed me much, so I'll go with Vancouver BC.

Urbana. I prefer the stately homes (some with front porches!), mature trees, and grassy yards.

Ridgewood Dr. - Daphne, Alabama

or

Ridgewood Ave. - Ormond Beach, Florida?

I'll go with Ormond Beach due to looking a little bit neater and it has at least one sidewalk.
