Big Apple is Top Dog

For the fifth straight year New York City has topped the Harris Poll for where most people would want to live. Now my question is this, because New York has so many people did they all get to vote? How is a little town like Norfolk, VA supposed to compete? (I should talk, I love in Shy-Town, we came in 6th.) My premise is that marketing has a lot to do with how people perceive each city. We’ve all been taught that New York is exciting, San Francisco is cool, Orlando is fun, Las Vegas is sinful. You get the picture. Is that what people were voting on? If not, how can you not vote for Honolulu?
