Answer 5

Well, let's see.

Vancouver (I know not in the USA, but is close to Seattle) is probably the nicest city I've ever visited  Everything about it is so clean and so clean and so organized. It really does have a big city feel, but without the disadvantages such as pollution, high traffic (Does have moderate traffic, but not as bad as Chicago, New York, La, SF)

Portland- I have heard only good things about Portland, though I have never been. I have heard it's similar to Seattle and Vancouver, so I bed you'd like it. It is very clean and nice, once again, has great public transportation, very organized.

Chicago- Behind Vancouver, Chicago is my favorite city. For a city it's size, it is probably the most beautiful and cleanest city in the world. It is just as beautiful as any city in the world. It is very accessible as Vancouver, except it's more spread out so you'll have to use public transportation if you wanted to get from, for example, the North side to the South side. Other than the traffic (If you live in the city, not a problem), I have no complaints about the city itself.

Boston- Never been, but everyone says they love it. Don't know much about Boston, maybe someone else could inform you about Boston

NYC- I personally don't think NYC can compete against Chicago. Chicago is more beautiful, less polluted, easier to get around, cheaper, newer. Now I'd don't hate New York, but it seems to me that it's too big of a city. You can never escape the city like you can do with Chicago, Vancouver (literally 10 miles from the great outdoors at any point in the city), and Portland. That's just my opinion.

I don't have anymore recommendations for cities in the USA, other than maybe SF. Some great Canadian cities are Toronto, Montreal, Calgary, Quebec, etc. If I were you, I'd think a little more outside the country, your here on earth for a short period, why not see the world. Plus your young, why not go live in Sydney or Paris or Dublin or London for a year? Of course, it's up to you, I'm not trying to tell you what to do. Haha.

Answer 6

Los Angeles has a lot going for it.

All kinds of climates within easy driving range.

All bands, singers, writers, etc go to Los Angeles on tour.

There's always something going on.

The main drawbacks are earthquakes.  And mudslides.  And wildfires.  Stuff like that.

Otherwise it's great!

Answer 7

I'm not as big on L.A, but all the others you listed would be okay. I like Chicago and NY myself.

Answer 11

It depends on your likes & dislikes but NYC is my favorite.

Answer 12

Chicago is more livable than New York, but they both offer a lot.  Never been to LA or Seattle.  New York would have to be Manhattan, or don't bother.
