Cincinnati

Most of these are great cities, but special love to Des Moines, Indianapolis and Wichita.

Oooo too many good options.

Aurora (MY HOMETOWN), Chicago, and Grand Rapids are all my favs.

Any city with a population of over 200,000 people was included provided that no state had more than five cities. I did include Grand Rapids even though the 2015 estimate was slightly below 200,000 because there is a decent chance that it is has hit 200,000 by now.

No one here calls it that. That's like something you'll only find amongst 50+ year olds who live at least 100 miles away.

I think that's the jist of it.  I've never heard anyone seriously be like "Yeah, I have to pick up my friend Bob in the Minnie Apple"... they'd say "I have to pick up my friend bob in the Cities"

You're one of the lucky few, Tom.  Tongue   I do like the city, to be honest.

Tough to pick between Minneapolis and Chicago, but I'll go with the latter because pizza.

Voting has been locked. The reason why I extended voting for a few hours was because I did not have access to Atlas earlier today. Chicago and Minneapolis advance to the finals.
