NYC - would never live there but great place to visit

couer d’alene - magical in the summer

1.Vegas- party, food,booze

2. Healdsburg- wine and food

3, Chicago- endless everything but cheaper than NYC

 
1) New York - you can feel the energy when you hit the Hutchinson

2) Boston - nothing like it in America, especially its history

3) San Diego - Best weather, best sights

4) New Haven - Gonna sneak that in there

5) Chicago - Gorgeously gothic

 
For me since, I live in NYC so visiting not applicable for me though it is the best city in America and probably the world:

Chicago

Miami

LA

San Fran

DC

Add Boston to this list and it's complete for me.  Not sure which I'd bump.

If adding vacation destinations, like with family, then I'd have a list like this:

Orlando

Hilton Head

Miami

Charleston

San Diego

 
Kinda shocked to see Naples, Boca, Orlando etc. These aren’t really impressive cities. I get the beach/Disney but...

Interesting. Can you explain? I will be there a couple days for a wedding in June so looking for some things to do during our free time.

If you stay on the N/NW side of town (Ventana/Catalina Foothills, along the mountain), it is a very nice place to be (a lot of Tucson is not).

Some amazing hiking there.  One of my favorites, not that long but steep.  Great views the whole way.

Golf.. Ventana Canyon, Dove Mountain, La Paloma all great.

Tombstone not too far away, worth doing once.  Mt Lemmon on a nice day.  Phoenix/Scottsdale easy drive away as well.

Healdsburg is a nice smaller choice here.  Just went for the first time about 2 months ago.  Beautiful (and now I have a ton of wine)

It's much better than the reputation. But for top 5? Just can't see it. But then I grew up 4 miles north of the city. 

I don't really have a top 5 (we'd take the woods or beach over a city 9/10 times) but after a decade of avoiding an assignment to DC, I've recently had a good time there and realized we really could have had a lot of fun for a couple years. Expensive as anything but a surprisingly well run City. 

If forced to pick, I'll go Chicago, Nashville, DC, Hilton Head, Ann arbor.

It's been a few years since I spent any time in Michigan, about a decade since I've been downtown. You obviously know more than I do about the current state. Friends say the same you are, and it's great to hear the city is coming back.I just have to get past the mental picture of the 80s and 90s there.

Where in Hawaii should I go?  Just looked stuff up ...not looking for really crowded - but there for luxury, food and beach - not ####### hiking.  

 
Las Vegas 

San Francisco 

New Orleans

San Diego 

 New York 

First 3 above are most unique big cities for better and sometimes worse, but if I have work travel to any of those, I'm pretty happy. San Diego and NYC are both 'can't go wrong' destinations. 

 
1) NYC

2) New Orleans

3) Nashville

4) Las Vegas

5) San Francisco

Live in So Cal so looked at other places. Chicago and Boston were on the bubble. Portland was a sleeper

 
New Orleans

SF

Vegas

NYC

Seattle

Love mountain towns, tropical/beach destinations, NorCal wine country but don't consider them cities.  Higher ranked destinations than some of my listed cities.

Any city you can't spend more than two nights in, by definition, sucks.

If you can't do Vegas for more than 2 nights- you're not really doing or experiencing Vegas properly. Best gambling in the US, great live music, fantastic dining options, great shopping, amazing people watching, a variety of shows and entertainment options that is maybe second to broadway in New York, one of the funnest places to watch sports, on top of providing numerous outdoor recreational activities- mt charleston, red rock, hoover damn, lake mead, atv's etc. Most people that claim that Vegas sucks just stay on one section of the strip and never really try to do much else.

 
Seems like a lot of people haven't been to New Orleans.  Or at least I assume that since it's hard to imagine leaving it off your list if you've been.

Mine:

New Orleans

-gap-

Chicago except during December-March

-gap-

New York

San Diego

Denver
