Favorite lower southern city

[urbanvb]

Originally I wanted to poll large cities all across the US to see how they all ranked compared to one another but since I can only list 15 per poll I will try to break it up into sections. In a few weeks or maybe longer, I will take the ending results and form one MEGA poll.

I am really looking for your picks of best cities based on first hand knowledge - you live/have lived there or traveled there quite a bit. Please give examples of why you picked your favorite city and anything else you wish to add.

I went with Miami. I was pleasantly suprised with how nice Miami is when I was there, especially Miami Beach and the Downtown.

Orlando, Tampa, MIA, Dallas and Houston. The first two I visit on the regular. The last I plan on going to sometime.
