Poll open for 48 hours. I see that a lot of cities here are in the same metro area (Mesa, Chandler), but they qualify because their populations are over 200,000. I guess that I should have only allowed one city per metro area when I started this series instead of limiting the number of cities per state. Oh well.

You forgot Oakland. Shame on you!  

San Francisco is OBVIOUSLY the best of this bunch, but #EastBayIsBeastBay.

You also forgot Sacramento, and Fresno,but who cares about those.

Two things:
1. No, he didn't forget Fresno, and San Jose.
2. There is a 5 city per state limit. Am I the only one who reads these things? Tongue

Well, the lack of Oakland is still sick and wrong anyway.

The lack of Sacramento is even more crazy to me, but oh well. I never actually realized that Fresno was bigger. Tongue

Voted San Diego

There were a ton of good options in this round, in fact there are hardly any cities here that I don't like, besides Mesa, Billings and Colorado Springs.

I hate to be a Negative Nancy but you left out Aurora, Colorado (population 325,000)

Oh, thanks for pointing that out. I guess that it can be a write-in option.

Tough choices!!  Lean San Diego because of weather, but Denver was a close second ... plus a girl I've been wanting to hook up with forever lives there, LOL.

Seattle FTW

(Of course, there are several other great options, like Portland, San Francisco, San Diego, Denver, and Santa Fe, although it wasn't listed.)

Seattle for me, obviously.

My other favorite cities in the West are probably San Francisco, Denver, Portland, and Anchorage in that order. A couple smaller cities that are great are Missoula, Bozeman, and Jackson, WY. I'd really love to visit some of the cities in rural Alaska, since I've never been there and it seems extremely similar to home and yet kind of exotic.

I prefer cities where you don't have to pay three grand a month for a sh!tty small studio apartment, so I voted Denver.
