Pretty overrated. The views are decent, the built environment isn't bad, its cost doesn't justify it.
Champaign, IL
ChamBana! Corn, university town, not that exciting but also not entirely unattractive. I bet they have a Culver’s: really good burgers, cheap fries doe.
Desirable (East) Lansing suburb. Seems like an ideal place to live if one worked at MSU.
Johnstown, PA
Ravaged by two floods, one in 1889 that served as a condemnation of Gilded Age robber barons and a second in 1938 for whose cleanup Pennsylvania booze-buyers are still paying even now.
I think it also got whacked when the remnants of Hurricane Agnes parked themselves over Pennsylvania ca. 1978,
I believe it's part of the fast-growing Kansas side of the KC metro region. I'm guessing it's a fairly typical midwestern suburb.
Victoria, TX
Never heard of it, but it sounds like a small Texas town which does not appeal to me.
After Google-mapping and street-viewing it, it looks even worse than I thought and is in an awful part of the state. Victoria, Texas might be one was the most blah places to live I've ever seen.

Des Moines, Iowa
A semi-big, Midwestern City. The capital of Iowa, so probably has some interesting history/government touristy areas too. The Kruidenier Trail Bridge looks pretty cool too!

Next: Boston, Massachusetts
Meh. Legacy city with good education, hanging on by virtue of that. They need to loosen up and rehabilitate their image as townies who eschew outsiders. A friend said it’s one of his fav cities because it can simultaneously make you cry if you have a car, but happy because of the pizza(?). Climate sucks too.

York, PA, my home for the night.
My first assumption was that it must be like other small PA cities like Harrisburg, Scranton, and Allentown: some degree of “rough and in-decline”. Looking at google images and maps, though, the downtown looks pretty nice. Might want to visit / reevaluate my opinion of PA cities in general.
Norwich, CT?
