I'm guessing KC. When I did a search, there were more results for that city. Which city has better public library system Miami or Atlanta?

Both seem solid to me. Tie.

LA, based on the number of international destinations served by each city's main international airport.

Which city has more affordable housing, Nashville or St. Louis?

Definitely St. Louis if that question is parsed as "housing that is more affordable". Less sure if the question is "a larger quantity of designated affordable housing", though I would still guess St. Louis. Nashville seems to be in the early stages of Austinification, it'll be a while before St. Louis starts to grow again.

Which city would be better to open a tech startup in, Louisville or Albuquerque?

Albuquerque but neither are very impressive

Which would be better for Asian cuisine, Chicago or Houston?

I think Chicago would due to there being a Chinatown but there again I may be biased.

Best Greenway Nashville or Memphis.

Houston would have a very strong Vietnamese and Chinese restaurant food scene, where there it might be ahead of what you can find in Chicago. I hadn't looked up the number of Korean restaurants in Houston, myself. This might be a question, where it's a tie between Chicago and Houston.

And as for the current question,I thought Nashville would have more interesting greenways, than what I noticed in my research. Nashville does have some good greenways within it(especially along the Cumberland River, Percy Warner Park, and Radnor Lake State Park), but to me Memphis surprised me with how decent it's greenway path system is. Not just along the Mississippi River, but also Shelby Farms Park, and Meeman-Shelby Forest State Park. I hate to say it, but it seems I'll have the narrow win on this to Memphis. Plus I even like how along the Mississippi River, there is a path that connects to a park in West Memphis, AR. And Meeman-Shelby, was bigger than I realized.

I hope Nashville works to improve it's greenway system, since I'd love to see all the paths along the Cumberland River a little more interconnected. This was a tough question, to answer. Not saying the greenway paths in Nashville are bad, since they have some good paths for sure.

Bar strips: Broadway in Nashville, or Beale Street in Memphis?

I agree with you. Memphis greenway is pretty good for the city to be so spread out. It is surprisingly beautiful!!!

I would give this one to Nashville due to the number of bars on lower Broadway. I do prefer the unique vibe of south main and Cooper Young.

Best Light Rail Portland or Denver?

Portland’s appears to be more extensive. I’ve never been to Portland, but I’ve been to Denver plenty of times. Denver’s light rail wasn’t particularly impressive. I would think Portland wins this.

Better festival city? Miami or Chicago?
