...I have only been to a few, but I am young.
At least you are honest.
I am not so young and I could barely compile a list of 12 major cities that I have been to let alone what are my 12 favorites.
I suspect there are a lot of people here who do not know what they are talking about.
1. Toronto - had a great time there was really impressed at the street car system and how cosmopolitan Toronto was.
2. Mexico City - very intresting place and has very beautiful Spanish architecture. I instantly fell in love with this place.
3. New York City - haven't been here yet, but want too so bad.
4. Chicago - I don't know much about Chicago, but people allways talk highly of it so I'll give it a shot.
5. Vancouver - another Canadian city that I starting to like.
6. Montreal - seem like a beautifull place, and I would love to visit.
7. San Franncisco - who can't love this city?
8. Boston - haven't been here yet either, but it looks nice.
9. Calgary - another intresting Canadian city.
10. Miami - want to go in those crystal clear beaches and go down south beach.
11. Denver - looks very cool and I would love to visit.
12. Houston - I would like to see Houston and go to some of it's museums.
13. Dallas - looks like a cool place to see.
14. San Diego - like Balboa Park and find serenity in this beautifull city.
15. Atlanta - must see for me I got to go to the ATL.
16. Philadelphia - the city of brotherly love I want to see the liberty bell and the city center with it's beautifull skyline.
17. San Antonio - I want to check out the river walk heard good things.
18. Austin - has good live music.
19. Orlando - I want to see Disney World and friends and maybe check out the emerging downtown Orlando.
20. Memphis - looks like a infesting place.
21. New Orleans - Is the city still recovering?
22. Los Angeles - I live here and I love it. I would have put it on top of the list, but I didn't want to be too pretentious.
My list is in no particular I just did what ever city came to my mind.
1 - Chicago - Of course "My kind of Town"
2 - New York City - Big and lots of things to do.
3 - Boston
4 - Los Angeles
5 - San Diego
6 - San Francisco
7 - Miami
8 - Houston
9 - Denver
10 - Minneapolis
11 - Philadelphia
12 - Washington DC
My favorite cities?
First off, I tend to dislike cities around 2 million or more, unless they have nicer weather-- so don't argue for New York or Chicago. I prefer my cities less congested and easy to move around. I also do not enjoy cities with endless miles of suburban sprawl or terrible city governments. Nicer weather is a big positive with me and may counteract congestedness! Decent food and good people are always a plus.
(tie) 1. Flagstaff AZ (a very very underrated and beautiful place)
1. Honolulu (paradise on American soil)
2. San Diego-my home town!
3. San Antonio -almost too big, but still a beautiful city that partys all night
4. San Francisco- best food next to New York
5. Vancouver- another underrated gem of a city
6. Portland OR
7. Seattle
8. Tampa/St. Pete
9. Baltimore (yeah it's cold and dumpy, but it was fun there)
10. Austin
if I had to rank my favorite large cities (which I would never live in)
1. New York -the greatest vibe of any city on Earth
2. Boston
3. Chicago
4. Dallas
5. L.A.
6. Philly
5. Miami
6. Atlanta
