favorite U.S. city tournament (round 2)

[justfollowingtheelections]

Out of each pair of cities, vote for the one you would rather live in, assuming you don't have a job or own real estate in either city (in other words, if all else equal ).  The tournament will last 8 rounds.  Voting in each round will last 24 hours unless there's a tie, in which case I will wait for the next vote.
I could only include the largest 256 cities.

[justfollowingtheelections]

MormDem, you can vote for your hometown but try to imagine which city you would pick if you didn't have any property there or a job.

[Mr. Smith]

But that breaks the spirit of this thread, and I'm not doing that. Besides Rochester and Baltimore seem like nice new cities to consider exploring.
