Gotta go with Cincinnati because of the hills and the river.

Granted, I haven't visited every metro in the poll; but for me it has to be Cincinnati.

It's the only outlier in the poll in that it actually has hills and scenic overlooks.

I would go with Cincinnati.

Southwest St. Louis County and Jefferson County is impressive as well.

Duluth, MN obviously, it should have been listed. No to Cincinnati on the toxic Ohio River.

The Ohio river by Cincinnati is not toxic and is often used for boating, tubing, and swimming. We are not in the 1970s anymore, its gotten a lot better.

Why in the hell would anyone pick Minneapolis or Chicago over Madison?

Madison is one of the most beautiful and unique cities in the country, with the state capitol built on an isthmus between two large glacial lakes. Minneapolis has a couple lakes and a waterfall. Chicago has a big lake. Lots of places have these things. Madison is very unique.
