It was a close one between these two but I actually chose Nashville. Nashville and Atlanta have less in common, but Nashville and CLT are more similar to each other size wise and similar downtown areas, layout, economics, etc.

It's probably Atlanta, and I'm sure some will vote Nashville, but I voted for Dallas. Dallas is obviously bigger, but I've been to both cities multiple times (Charlotte more so than Dallas) and I think they give off a similar vibe. They're very white-collar and both are big financial cities. The downtowns feel similar and some of the surrounding neighborhoods are similar, as well. Myers Park in Charlotte and Highland Park in Dallas, etc.

Also, Atlanta and Nashville are famous for pop culture (hip hop, country music, etc.) but you can't really say the same for Charlotte or Dallas, respectively. Charlotte and Dallas are business cities more than anything.

Dallas actually reminds me more of Charlotte than Atlanta.

While there may be some similarities to Dallas, there’s many differences. I think Atlanta and Nashville are more comparable when you consider demographics, culture, setting/scenery, food, city design, etc..
