For all the people who lived in multiple cities, rank them from best to worst.

1. Philly - I loved living there. I went to school at Temple University and it was the best decision of my life. My second home and a lot to do low key. Bars were lit, Temple was lit, easily one of the best summertime cities in the country, GOAT level food all over the place, dope natives with a huge sense of culture, and accessible public transportation. Really didn’t use my car much living there. One thing people who aren’t from Philly need to realize that Philly EASILY has the best block parties in the country.

2. Los Angeles - This is home. Born and raised in Inglewood I have so many memories here. Great night life, hella shyt to do, the true city that doesn’t sleep (even though it’s wack that shyt closes at 2am.)

3. San Francisco - Was only there for a bit but it was pretty cool. Great scenery and food. That’s it. The people there are all geeks and stuck up af. The city has clearly lost its identity with the transplants ruining it.

4. Ontario, CA - Typical inland empire suburban town with some rough parts to it. Unfortunately this is where many of the real Cali natives were pushed too

5. Pomona, CA - Never again, ghetto af, dirty as hell and a shythole

San Diego
Los Angeles
Atlanta
Dallas
Houston
Chicago
Philly
Miami
DC
NYC

SoCal just is my kinda vibe.
Texas is just a place I can feel at home.
Atlanta just feels great to be around so many black people doing shyt and they aren't pretentious.
Chicago is my current home, weather sucks tho...
Philly is my first home.
Miami is cool for a weekend.
DC is my 3rd home, most of my family lives there. Too many boujee people tho...
NYC is cool, but it's just too big and condensed.

No where except Los Angeles, but I can tank the places I went to visit siblings and nephews/nieces and mom and pops

1. Los Angeles... born and raised...was the greatest city up till 2008 and the demographics totally changed and becoming to expensive

2. Washington DC - my sister and nephew and niece lives there... well just my niece now since my sister and nephew moved to NY... ... DMV will always be my home away from home.. the black women working and hustling and came across some real brothers who was down to earth and positive... love the district heights, fort Washington area where my sister used to live

3. Sleepy Hollow NY & Queens.. my sister moved up there cause my nephew just started college with a scholarship... too many scammers in New York of all colors especially Latinos, but the blacks especially in queens was real professional and cool... prices for shyt had nikka like really..

4. Shreveport Louisiana and Little Rock... my mom side of the family.. country as fukk but folks was laid back even tho they was broke

5. Cleveland, Ohio... the suburbs are nice and decent food.... but the city itself is a shythole and way too many lazy nikkas living off section 8 broads and I mean damn every chick no lie I ran into had a kid or two or three or four... the downtown is horrible and no type of scene whatsoever

SMF and LAX to VA and NC
1 DC
2 LA
3 VB
4 Clt
5 Ral
6 Sac

7 ATL
8 Ral
9 Alb, NY
10 Fay, NC

11 Mem
12 LR, Ark
13 El, NY

The bottom two were by far the worst, the top three were by far the best. Everywhere else in the middle, not much separation overall, all have their positives and negatives, more positives the higher up, more negatives going down...

1. LA's demographics and COL was changing way before '08. But, for me, still the greatest American city...

2. DC area has the best collection of women in the country, especially black women but women from all backgrounds. And the black success and achievement is GOAT, probably my second favorite city, really it and LA are interchangeable to me...

3. I've been to Manhattan but never to Queens, people been telling me for years that I have a Queens swagger and I should live there. Since I was living Upstate I been hearing that...

4. Little Rock is trash. I was into all that street shyt at one point and it was fun from that perspective, they with the drama down there. But it's slow and backwards and just boring. People are friendly, though...

5. Ha, white folk hype the shyt outta Cleveland and overall I did enjoy my visit. But its downtown was very disappointing and I don't know why, but I was expecting the women to be better looking...

I've been to Philly a few times.
The last time I went was a random Saturday last summer. Went with the wife to go visit some of her fam. I saw a block party nearby. Come to find out....it was just a birthday party for some 5 year old kid. But there had to be like 150 people there.

San Diego has been a diverse city before "diverse" became a common term.

Chicago: 42 cot damn degrees today. Might as well be on lockdown. :stopitslime:

Baltimore
1) Bushwick-Brooklyn (diverse neighborhood, all things considered. I lived with the Latinos, but past Broadway I'd see my people). Everything I needed was so close. And I kind of loved the hipster/art vibe near the L train).

(Gap)

2) Hamilton Heights-Manhatten (where I live now. Everything I need is close. I love running in Riverbank Park/Riverside Drive. Lots of cool bars too. I do hate how noisy my block gets sometimes and people outside be cussing each other out over the STUPIDEST shyt.

3) Pikeville-Baltimore (where I grew up. Truth be told, I like the neighborhood more now that it's more diverse (they even have a Bodega now lol). When my parents first moved here, it was pretty much Jew Town. It's a nice quiet neighborhood; I have some fond memories there.

(Gap)

4) East New York-Brooklyn (nothing against hoods, but this was a really bad neighborhood lol. I still had fun here. I had a 1 bedroom all to myself, I was 24, I lived next door to my best friend at the time. It was perfect for where I was in my life then. I wouldn't move back tho).

ATL via Tre 4
1. Greensboro, NC - Spent 6 years of my life in the city going to NCA&T. Had the best time of my life. Met my woman, which lead to my baby daughter, and I left there having gained lifelong friends, brothers, sisters, and a gang of networks. I try to go to GHOE every year.

2. Winston-Salem, NC - This is home. Most of my family still lives in the area, and I’ll eventually end up back home. Got some land there, and I’ll build my retirement pad there.

3. Biloxi, MS - Moved there as a teenager, and my parents live there now. Life on the coast was laid back and chill. I miss it. Would be there if the job market was better. Gotta drive to Mobile or New Orleans for some real money.

4. Atlanta, GA - Currently live here. This where my family and kingdom is at. City had grown on me. Love being around all this black excellence

5. Dublin/Columbus, OH - Spent 6 months here. Columbus cool. Nothing much else to really say
