1. New York, NY, USA
2. New Orleans, LA, USA
3. San Diego, CA, USA
4. Sydney, NSW, AUS
5 (tie). Chicago, IL, USA
            Philadelphia, PA, USA

Obviously need to get around the world a little more, but those are the 5 best that I've been to.

EDIT: I'll add that it is quite the testament to how great America can be and operate in a proper urban environment.  Our cities are truly quite amazing.

Based on places I've actually been:

1. Chicago
2. Montreal
3. London
4. Paris
5. Calcutta


I'm sure Rome, Istanbul, Naples, and Berlin would replace 2 - 5 when I go, but Chicago will always be #1 Purple heart

...I can't believe I forgot (Reykjavik, Iceland) , (Berlin, Germany)*,  (Vienna, Austria)*, and Copenhagen, Denmark...
