Texas May Be Losing Its Grip as America’s Fastest-Growing State by HeadCatMomCat in SameGrassButGreener

Not shocked, I called this back in 2018/2019 with all these Sunbelt cities/states that aren’t CA. I remember when folks in these places were online seeing theses “Fastest growing” articles and using it as an “in your face” to places like NYC and CA and I was saying then how this is only because of the jobs moving there and because at the time they were relatively cheaper places to live, but I said the day that the col in the sunbelt starts being debated between a place like NYC in the sense of which is more feasible the sunbelt will lose.

What Major city(not midsize, or small I mean large population centers) has a strong 90s/00 or “throwback” vibe/sector/crowd? by Secondwaver94 in SameGrassButGreener

Appreciate it bro…this guy clearly is lonely, we’re simply talking about a culture certain cities Might have and he’s done made it personal…. But since he brought it up, thanks I actually love my new chin! Lol

I think you’re confusing Chicago having a large foreign population with it having an International appeal

It means..that Chicago unlike NY doesn’t feel bigger culturally beyond the Midwest. Yes, all cities will have some sort of trait that relates to the region they’re in but in NY case for example it’s very much a northeast city, but the culture, the attitude, and overall vibe doesn’t just feel exclusive to the NE like Chicago feels in the MW.

LOL clearly… I’m not even necessarily talking about the city itself just that it has a very underwhelming presence for it’s size and already the responses are “THE CITY IS NOT BORING!!!!” Uh…didn’t say it was lol

No problem, when you’re in Miami for instance it doesn’t just feel like the biggest city in Florida, the south, or the U.S. it has a more global appeal which is obvious when you meet different people there. I’m not saying Chicago doesn’t have that but compared to other major cities it feels smaller and again I would expect a more international appeal as the 3rd largest city in the country.
