I guess I'll go with Bed-Stuy due the business districts appearing to be more consistently full. Surprised you did use the Fillmore District for SF.

West Village, Detroit. It looks more lush and grand. Very beautiful.

I'll take Fayetteville. The businesses seem more quirky and fun vs. the more touristy and high-end ones in Wilmington. Being closer to Charlotte and the Research Triangle would also be cool.

Overlook, Portland

Both are examples of the newest example of medium density urban development with a mix of low/mid rise residential buildings and commercial areas with parking lots. I do like the fact Portland has the transit line, which makes a huge impact in terms of living a more urban lifestyle.

Tough matchup, but I'll go with Society Hill due to being built more for pedestrians.

Im going to go with Brockport even though I hate SUNY Brockport. More central to where I would want to be.

I've been away from this site for awhile but I'm really liking this thread.

I'll go with Belfast, ME for this. It has a more walkable feel, pretty clean, and the buildings/architecture is pretty nice.

Two great neighborhoods. I’ll go with Chicago as the character of the old commercial buildings tends to be more aesthetically pleasing with those ornate bay windows and turrets complimenting the area nicely.

Both nice and unique, but I’ll go with Santa Fe due to not having many places that have the same/similar look.

Armory Square, Syracuse, NY

That is a very attractive area with some interesting architecture and looks more vibrant than Worcester.
