= "Dominant" in being a true global city, which you should be proud of. Not arguing that either of these cities are good places to live in, but just showing some love to offset the constant hate I see spewed on here regarding NYC (seemingly some political BS).

California - Seems like it would have been an awesomenstate to live in back in 1950's - 80's before they went full retard with consistent deep blue liberal politics, save for the occasional RINO bum they'd elect like Arnold into the 2000's. Overall taxes and living in that state are insane. Factor in all the clown world chit, and I'd never want to deal with anything beyond visiting there.
Oregon and Washington - They're chitty versions of CA.
Missouri - Went through that state and looked around a bit back in the 90's as a kid. Seemed like an ugly, boring af state. I'm sure I missed plenty of cool stuff about it, but nothing about that state seemed interesting to me at all.
Iowa - One of the utimate bumfuk middle of nowhere flyover states. Been there plenty of times, so I can speak to it pretty well. Even as a Midwesterner, that place is beyond boring as chit. All there is to do there is look at corn fields, and get drunk at small town dive bars while hanging out with local rednecks/traveling tradies doing 1-2 year job stints there. Their few bigger cities don't have anything to offer that you can't find elsewhere. Their one saving grace is that they aren't complete morons politically.

Anybody saying California is delusional. I moved out because the cost was eating me alive. If I was CEO 10K a day I'd consider going back. If you have the money, nearly every con of California is wiped out. Put your kids in private school. Live in a beach town or OC. The amount of culture packed in is incomparable. Standards are higher as well in many facets. Dealing with the idiots here in Omaha getting my kids in school was a nightmare compared to OC. Also, California is fukking gorgeous.
Anybody saying any different never lived there and get their opinions from the TeeVee (hur dur poop in streets) or lived in a chit hole and are bitter about not cutting it.Virtue is its own reward.

What has the media reported on CA that was false?
The only thing keeping people like me there is the weather, beach, friends, sports. As far as the reporting, it's pretty accurate. The laws are egregiously bad and dont favor the people. Leads to homeless camps, crime, skyrocketing housing prices, extra gas taxes, etc.
This is the trade off to the location.USMC 0311

That’s why breaking it down by state level is kind of hard on the one hand.
Clearly you don’t want to live in any liberal hell holes. But shouldn’t be to quick to dismiss places like Alabama. Huntsville is prob one of the nicest cities to live in across the board.
There are hidden gems in the south.
