Milwaukee is more fun than Chicago, IMHO.

Next week I'll knock one off my list. Never been to Grand Rapids MI (metro 1 million) and it's about 5 hours away. Most vibrant metro area most people know nothing about.

I live in St. Louis, and I like to think that I get around quite a bit. I also used to live on the East Coast (Mid Atlantic). The major cities I have never been to (excluding a fly through) would be:
Minneapolis - 559 miles
Detroit - 532 miles

I have never been too or touched down in
Cleveland - 562 miles
Birmingham - 506 miles (guess this is the winner?)
Albuquerque - 1,040 miles
San Antonio - 902 miles
Austin - 832 miles

Side note - interesting to me that Texas cities (and bordering New Mexico) are so much further than the others listed

I live in Massachusetts now and previously in New York and I've never been to Philly that i can remember, though I have driven by on the highway many times--just never got off the highway! Why, I don't know. Just never had any reason to go there.

Edmonton, Alberta....12 hours away.....775 miles.


Not a fan of cities, but they are hard to avoid. Would like to see Edmonton. Came within a hundred miles a couple of years ago, but heading home from Alaska and the weather turned white.
