I have decided to make this a little more fair. Provide info, skyline, events, culture, weather, whatever. Oh, which would you rather be in for a visit?

Scott, I've been to ALL these places you named so far, honestly, Pueblo can't compete with ANY of them. You should try and stick with towns in the Southwest with similiar populations. Omaha, NE, believe it or not, BLOWS Pueblo out of the water. I was actually taken back by the nice suburbs that exist there also in Omaha. They have a really nice 'high end' mall there too (the one that kid went on a shooting rampage around xmas a year or two ago).

I've never been to Pueblo but here are some cities that I assume that are in it's class; Manhattan, KS. Fort Collins, CO. Macon, GA. Johnson City, TN.

How are those?

Fort Collins is interesting because they have CSU and Pueblo has CSU other then that the cities are completely different. Fort Collins is a high tech city that is very dense but lacks its own identity as its so close to Denver while Pueblo is a industrial town on the plains with no major city around thus we are a hub city.

The best size of city to compare Pueblo to, if you were being honest, would be between 100,000 to 500,000 but only if they were not a suburb.

Whaaaaaaaaaaat? You actually think that Pueblo can compete, on ANY level, with a city that has a population of 500,000? You are SOOOOOOO out there, I'm having trouble even responding to you. I've NEVER seen someone try and built up a place, like you are with Pueblo!.... A dity, dusty, dead, no-name town, that nobody really even knows about, or cares about! You post pics, and there ain't even 1 person walking around in them. It looks like a ghost town!.....

Who exactly is Pueblo a "hub city" for?
