    Correct. The cities in rotation are Dallas (the capital of oil), Houston (the other capital of oil), Atlanta (the capital of black people), Miami (the capital of Latino people), SF (the capital of rich people), and DC (the capital).

      This is the right answer. Anyone can look at a list of populations. This is also a question about culture.

      [sad Boston noises] they only get to be on the list when one or more of their sports teams is doing well and everyone hates them for it.

      Who cares about Dallas, Houston or Atlanta - do people actually go those places when they don’t have to? I mean travel there by choice rather than necessity.

          There are people who having decided to move there was the beginning of everything going wrong with their life, and i’m not even joking

            This is true. As someone trapped in TX, I know lots of people who moved here excited that they sold their [insert civilized place] house and can buy a mansion in TX. Golly geez, people sure are nice here. Then they realize why the house was comparatively so inexpensive. Then they learn the difference between nice and kind. Then they leave or wish they could.

      The people who live in Houston seem to think it’s as good as Chicago, I’d disagree with them but at least there are good restaurants. Also from a population standpoint, Houston is basically the same size as Chicago so it invites comparison in one regard.

        Houston has some amazing neighborhoods, cultural diversity, a solid professional job market, and great parks and museums. Unfortunately, this is only a fraction of Houston, where the rest is concrete wasteland and/or culturally devoid

      Dallas and Miami for sure. SF is basically the same as LA with Golden Gate. But Boston, Seattle, (New) Detroit, and maybe Omaha/Wichita if there’s tornado chasers or country/city clashes.

        Omaha and Wichita are not on the same level as any of the rest you’ve listed. Very random to put them in here. Omaha is the 42nd largest city and Wichita is 52nd. And if you’re comparing Metro areas I would guess that disparity would place them much lower.

        SF same as LA??? Have you been to either? Scale. LA is huge. SF is a tiny city. Weather. LA has nice weather. SF has four seasons: windy, foggy, ok, rainy. Always somewhat cold. Food: LA is so much bigger and has much more to offer. SF has good food if you can afford it. Vibe: in LA everyone is nice to you but doesn’t care about you unless you’re rich. In SF no one cares about you. Architecture: suburb vs Victorian suburb.
