Seems like a nice place.

Also I find it interesting that people dislike the Dallas suburbs less than the Phoenix ones.

Well, it's an actual city, which is more than we can say for most of the recent entries.  FC.

For a period of time that ran roughly equivalent to the first Bush term, it was kind of the hub for all sorts of bad metalcore. Of all types of styles. Also a style that was kind of a combination of black metal and standard metalcore (that was more of a North Carolina thing in general than just W-S though), that unsurprisingly I found unbearable since there are no elements to black metal I can tolerate in any context. It did have a few good bands though. But eh traininthedistance is right.

This is random, but could someone link me to the 2012 election results for this city list?

I know Hiahleh and Gilbert are Republican and San Bernadino and Richmond are Democratic, Boise is barely Democratic, but the other 5 I have no idea.

Well it voted 62.7% Obama in 2008, though that includes precincts that include areas outside the city limits. For only precincts that are only or predominately in the city limits, it was around 67% Obama. And the county swung less than 2 points to Romney, so I'll guess it was around 61-65% Obama depending on the definition used, meaning you could go with 63% Obama as the average.

Yeah both the average and calculating swing ways aren't perfect or even necessarily good ways to get, but +/- 3 points of 63% Obama in 2012 seems pretty reasonable.

It's safe to assume that Fremont voted overwhelmingly Democratic.
