I'll put in a ranking for all of 'em, but divide into places I've lived, places I've been to, and places I've never been to.

Lived:
New York City - 9
Chicago - 8

Been there:
Bay Area - 8
Philadelphia - 7
DC/Baltimore area - 6
LA - 4

Never Been (based on perception):
Colorado Springs/Denver - 5
Cleveland - 4
Las Vegas - 2
