Big U.S. Cities. Been there?
 

Poll to follow with the 49 largest U.S. metro areas. Check which ones you've been to.

This is optional research, and participation is voluntary on your part. At any point during the poll you may stop participating and there will be no repercussions against you.

I've got 27 of the top 49, and I feel like I'm moderately well-traveled. I would've thought I had more. I can add another 8 where I went on day trips or airport passthroughs, but didn't spend the night.

26.

15 not counting airport layovers or just driving through.

Have plans to add another 2-5 this year.

16 of 49. If you remove the spend a night requirement, it's 30 of 49.

Ha. Amateur. I'm still in the lead.

14 (should be 15, but I neglected to check Orlando). I've also driven through 11 others without stopping, and once had a flight connection in Birmingham.

All of them but 8:

1. Buffalo-Niagara Falls
2. Providence-New Bedford-Fall River
3. San Jose-Sunnyvale-Santa Clara, CA
4. Sacramento--Arden-Arcade--Roseville, CA
5. Pittsburgh, PA
6. San Francisco-Oakland-Fremont, CA
7. Philadelphia-Camden-Wilmington, PA-NJ-DE-MD
8. New York-Northern New Jersey-Long Island, NY-NJ-PA

19

Have stayed overnight in 23 - and have been in 29 - not bad for a Dakotan.

You've got 41, but haven't been to New York?



It's interesting to me that Philadelphia is faring so poorly. It's the biggest city that I haven't hit, and I figured I was an anomaly. Apparently not.

All but 5

San Antonio
Birmingham (Been to Auburn though)
Jacksonville
Austin
Providence


Of the 5, I'd like to go to SA and Austin. The rest - meh.

I've been to all but 9. If you want an overnight stay, that numbers drops a lot. subtract 11 that I did not stay overnight in. So 29 with overnight stay, 40 total.

It's not quite Providence, but I'd really like to go to Newport, RI, and check it out.

Lucky 13.....
