Honestly, Detroit. I think they are on the upswing and having a giant hub airport there will really provide an advantage.

Which place offers better access to country living while offering a reasonable commute to the city? Wichita, KS or Omaha, NE?

Detroit based on recent investment and more technology based economy.

Which city would be better for higher education; Nashville or Atlanta?

Atlanta simply has more options. But Nashville has more going on when factoring how much smaller it is. So Nashville!

Which city is better for openly practicing Christianity... Salt Lake City or Arlington, Tx?

I'll have to say Arlington. Salt Lake City is still a bit too LDS-dominated, even though it has a Catholic cathedral just down the street from the LDS mother church. But Arlington (and DFW in general) is certainly better for most Christian denominations in general, and its the only major city that has a Christian radio station in the top five among formats.

Keeping the religious theme: which city is better for openly being a Jew? Charlotte or Indianapolis? (Going with some nontraditional options here)

This got skipped.

I'd say it's a tie between the two; it doesn't take long for you to enter farmland after leaving either city's downtown. Wichita, however, is a little smaller than Omaha, so it might hold the edge here.

Repeating the last question: Which city is better for being a Jew, Charlotte or Indianapolis?

Indianapolis because it is less Southern Baptist and also has more resources for Jewish families.

Which city is better for luxury homes?

Santa Monica, CA or Boca Raton, FL?

Just a guess but I said Boca Raton based on what I've heard of it. Which city has done a better job of preserving it's history Boston or Philadelphia?

Maybe the most to the wire one yet, but id imagine the slight edge goes to Philly.

What city better showcases beach culture, Miami or LA? (Not asking better looking beaches as that one would obviously be miami, but instead better beach culture

I'd say these days probably Miami. Which city has the most diverse economy, Dallas or Atlanta?

Dallas based on its telecommunications, technology, and high wage job relocations. Dallas also has better infrastructure and less segregated.

Which city is better for high end shopping? Phoenix, AZ or Seattle, WA?
