[Gill Baka Esq. LLC.]

You know NYC is the greatest but maybe Forbes is biased since they are based out of this city

Minneapolis is a nice cultural city, about time it got its due.

 

[maxelite]

What does Miami have besides South Beach though?

true and I think San Antonio should be in the mix somewhere. it's very cultural

 

[dakid23]

SF>>>> The Chi (or anything not LA or NYC)

 

[wallyhopp]

what a weird figure to go off of. no ratios or percentages but straight up MORE overall instutitions?


theres a lot of smaller towns that ratio wise, match up with the best of them. size isnt everything lol

@ minneapolis

 

[inine5]

can't believe cities like houston and minni ranked higher than SF.... seems like they only based on numbers.... i mean, there are certain landmarks orsights in certain cities that have more weight than sites in others... the Top 5 is about right though....

I don't agree except for number 1, 2, and 3. Although I don't agree with the order.
Like everyone, I am surprised by Minneapolis being up there.

I think it should be replaced by Seattle (though I hate it here)

 

[dynamic x]

Why isn't Las Vegas on there?

I don't live there, but you'd think people would go there.

 

[youmadyoubad]

im content with #2 we have enough people in LA as it is

 

[soltheman]

Minneapolis.

Probably because you gotta be 21 to do 90% of the things there.

 

[al audi]

would consider it at 2. I don't agree at all with #3-9 being above SF though.

yep. Wth. Btw, do they mean DC or Washington state?

Read the title.

 

[friendliest ghost]

I'm truly shocked no Ohio cities were on that list.

 

[krazychino]

Not surprised at #1. We the best.

Tell me where else in the country can you literally find one person from every different culture, ethnicity, or country other than NYC?

 

[ScroogeMcBuckz]

I wouldn't say it's hate towards SF, but you bring it on yourself when you try to bash another city for your own hometown bias.

Why would Forbes make this up? take it for what it is.
