^ Whats not to like about Miami? It's a beautiful place, a lot going on, diverse, sports, public transportation, I enjoy the whole South Florida Metro not just MIA. People bash Miami all the time for reasons I guess like how the economy is right now, but the crime has been dropping. Everyone always has this thought in their head that the whole city is Cuban but like I said it's quite diverse. Miami and LA are my 2 favorite sunbelt cities.

I posted this five years ago and I see my question was answered in a big way for Downtown Houston. Thousands of units under construction with more proposed.

I love how the map takes great pains to include the TX panhandle while ignoring Oklahoma and Arkansas at the same latitude. That being said, the sunbelt cities I would live in would include:

LA
SD
Santa Fe
Austin
Sedona/Flagstaff
Asheville
Bay Area

And absolutely nowhere else. MAYBE Vegas for like a year at most.

Yeah, that was a total Homer move if I've ever seen one. +1
It also excluded TN and most of NC at that same Latitude. Alas, it didn't matter to a recent poster from VA who included Richmond in her/his reply.
