Oops, I forgot to explain why I picked those two! I like them because they excel in all that is good in the SE. They are charming, coastal, historic, friendly, and walkable. Of all the SE, these are the places I could see myself being the happiest were I to live there.

I would say Orlando (home of that mouse) and Miami because I like the scene. (Off subject) I just noticed that I an even 300 post (yay) and an even 50 rep points (yaayy), I would like all to rep me for the anything so I can hurry up and change my name. If I'm not at 100 by the morning I'll unleash my fury on Houston

I don't think Orlando or Miami would qualify as a mid-major.

OK I saw the slash and thought we had the option of mid-major and metro (larger) cities. I would say Louisville and then Ashville,NC.

I like the following:

-- Birmingham (We moved here from Chicago 15 years ago. A great, underrated place)
-- Chattanooga (Surprised? Really beautiful with a number of amenities)
-- Mobile (Nice coastal town. Not too big, not too small)
-- Ashville (Beautiful and artsy)
-- Greenville/Spartanburg (Good place to live)
-- Charleston and Savannah (Really scenic, but maybe a bit too wrapped up in being Charleston and Savannah)
