San Antonio, Texas full of a bunch of Mexican-American's who claim to and try to be White (quoted from a Mexican buddy of mine). I agree. Also, there isn't much culture there. It's just a "large conglomeration of people", not a "city". Drop by to see the Alamo and the Riverwalk, and get the F out. The people are vere rude, too. Especially the drivers along I-10. Been there twice, don't ever want to go back. Not missing a damn thing.

maybe you should spend some time in a city before you make snap judgments about it. how long were your two trips? san antonio is a pretty decent city. dont know why you say SA is just a "large conglomerate of people." there's plenty of culture.

and the hispanics seem pretty tex-mex to me. where are you from?

ok, maybe the underground part was out of line.

EDIT-but just wait about 75 years, and we'll see about how -EV it is then...

there are plenty of cities in this country that fit your criteria that do not have an underground transit system and most of them i find easier and more pleasant to get around than NYC, though i don't think NYC's system is bad.

your comment is eliminating some really great cities in our country.

Yet more points for Philly.

- dirty, overpriced, yet bankrupt public transportation
- stench in the streets
- 5% wage tax
- corrupt government
- an illiterate mayor
- grossly over-powerful unions
- lazy-ass entitlement work ethic of the people (see previous point)
- the Chinese food in its China town sucks
- inarguably the most obnoxious sports fans in the country (the battery incident was my favorite)

They have one of the best business schools in the country, but 95% of Wharton graduates leave Philly immediately upon graduation. They spend craploads of tax dollars trying to figure out why.

The cheesesteaks are just as good in the suburbs.

That being said, Go Eagles!


Oh, and L.A. blows horse dong as well. Probably the only city I hate more than Philly.

Will you people stop with the Springfield, Waltham, Schenectady, Utica stuff....these places aren't "cities."

It's as if I were to list Roslyn or Great Neck or something.
