14. NYC, LA, Chicago, Miami and San Francisco… #5 is up for grabs between SF, Houston, Atlanta, Boston, Philly and DC imo

15. NYC, LA, San Francisco, Chicago, Atlanta

16. It’s interesting how often Boston comes up, for a city that’s not in the top 20 in population or top 10 metro area. Historic significance, I’m guessing.

17. NYC, Chicago, LA, Dallas, Atlanta

18. LA, New York, Chicago, Atlanta, Phoenix

    The first three won’t change. The last two probably do depending on what I’ve been doing or thinking about.

    Seattle, Boston, Miami, St. Louis, Dallas, Houston, New Orleans, Denver, Portland, Washington DC, Nashville, Philadelphia, San Francisco, etc. could all slot in.

19. NYC. LA. Houston. Phoenix. Denver.
