My hometown, 10/10 since there's no criteria for rating these cities :yeshrug:

IDK how Oakland is #6 over cities like Atlanta, Houston, NO, etc btw....and Detroit over Baltimore :dwillhuh:

I will recalculate Oakland today because more people probably voted since the last time I tallied the scores up which was yesterday morning.

Have no idea how DC is ranked over Chicago and how Oakland is ranked over Houstonlantaorleans but Coli nikkas have absolutely no taste. :mjlol:

Seattle is a fine city. Have two uncles that have been living there for about 25 years. There is no type of black community but the city is beautiful, food is great, and all types of activities if you’re into the outdoors. Can be expensive in many areas but that comes with the territory. Seattle has the reputation that it rains all the time but I read a stat that it rains just as much in Chicago as it does in Seattle so that perception seems to be a bit misplaced. However, the couple times I visited, it stayed foggy so there was limited sunshine. Native Americans abound but they pretty much poor and hood, essentially Seattle’s black people.

Rate it an 8.

Seattle is a nice looking city.

Very relaxing with some great tourist spots and good food along with some nice people.

So I'm going to give Seattle a 7. I'm kinda surprised TLR doesn't like Seattle.

Seattle actually has a pretty good score for now. I’ve never been there myself but someone I know moved there 3 years ago and they really liked it the only con that they told me about was that it rains a lot and it can get freezing cold there even during the summer.

Ironically I met some people from Seattle last night. One of the guys had a purple mohawk so don't think he was from the Harlem neighborhood of Seattle. :dame: Anyways I told him I heard it's nice out there but expensive. He said it's not that bad especially compared to central Florida. All I know is that it rains a lot, they got the space needle, Bill Gates and Microsoft are based there, and I think grunge rock was started there. Other than that I don't know shyt about the city. Feels like it's a whole world away all the way on the opposite corner of the map. Maybe one day I'll visit.

Yeah NYC and Miami actually have higher annual rain totals than Seattle. It's the sheer number of rainy and cloudy days that makes Seattle the "rainiest" city in America.

Seattle, Washington
Average annual rainfall: 38 inches Average rainy days per year: 154


According to Today I Found Out, Seattle only receives an average of 38 inches of rain annually, placing it at number 44 on the list of the wettest U.S. cities by rainfall. So why does this Pacific Northwest metropolis have such a reputation for being rainy? It may have something to do with the sheer frequency of rainy days: according to seattle.gov, the city experiences, on average, a whopping 154 days of precipitation every year. (It may also be a rumor natives like to spread to keep too many people from crowding the gorgeous city.)

I'll take that over the violent rainstorms you see in the Midwest.

It probably doesn't rain as much in Kansas City but when it does you lose visibility. And then you have the tornadoes..

What does Chicago have over DC aside from cost of living?

Should've never moved to OKC. I don't think the city has won a title. Seahawks fukked it up, Mariners came close when Griffey was there, and no hockey until I think next year.
:dahell: you been in a coma since 79 breh? Supersonics won in 79 and then the Seahawks got a title too in 2014 lol. The following year they blew it against the Patriots, they coulda won back to back lol.

Damn breh, my bad. I wasn't around in 79 and wasn't even thinking of Seahawks other than that interception. :snoop: Who was it the year before? They beat the Broncos right?

Yea I don’t get how DC ranked so high over us. Only thing they really got over us is quality of women (many of which aren’t from there) and the nightlife since their clubs and bars stay open longer. Crime ain’t much better and it’s not much cleaner. Plus it’s expensive as hell

Posters either thinking with their dikks :dame:

Or Baltimore might be too black for them
:mjpls:

Baltimore has a real local culture as well.

I gave Baltimore a 10 of course.

DC got more things to do and see but of course it's the nation's capital so that's expected. Not many tourist are thinking of visiting Baltimore cuz people don't know what the hell y'all got out there to see and do. Most people not gonna visit a city that don't have much going on that they know about.

Other than the Smithsonian and those monuments they really don’t have much more to do tbh
