What was your methodology to determine the placings?
Angel Anderson
Tier 1 checking in.
Where do you live old chap, Shanghai or Peking?
Ayden Ward
>no boston fuck you OP, we're way better than New York. cleaner and safer too.
Dylan Lopez
>no Austin >no San Antonio >no Houston
shit list 2bh
Benjamin Moore
São Paulo is Tier 1 city, you stupid slant eyed Chink with a fish face.
Nathan Hall
It is based on the perceived prestige of the city. Prestige comes from a city's cultural, economic and political influence and especially its pull, the ability to attract tourists and talented individuals from within and from abroad.
Eli Bell
>SF over every US city other than New York :/
Jaxson Moore
Rio is much more famous and influential compared to Sao Paulo. Theres a reason the olympics were in Rio.
Joseph Walker
SF is silicon valley and the greatest entrepreunerial hotspot in the world. It also has a booming economy, the highest property prices and huge tourism. It is one of those cities that people dream of living in, unlike most other US cities.
Juan Young
SF is a hellhole.
Carter Green
> political influence then Beijing, Washington DC should be tier 1
Anthony Cooper
Nope because Beijing has little else going for it and DC is too small.
Robert Wright
Barcelona is better than Madrid tho
Caleb Campbell
With all these third world cities in tier 3 I would say every US city should be tier 2.
Matthew King
trips don't lie
Julian Torres
>Moscow no it isn't a top tier
Benjamin Brooks
Those third world cities are national capitals that are getting lots of foreign investment and attracting millions of workers. They are dynamic and growing fast.
Most US cities are rust belts with high crime that people are trying to escape from e.g. cleveland, pittsburg, baltimore, detroit etc
Joshua Sanchez
>China why are you allowed to post here
Brayden Robinson
why is vienna t2 and munich t3
Owen Sullivan
I'd put Barcelona in tier 3. Nice city but too regional.
those cities are irrelevant kek, only attract mexicans, no huge skyscrapers, no political power, not michelin starred restaurants, no super expensive hotels. I'm talking about prestige here.
Elijah Gomez
>Theres a reason the olympics were in Rio. Bribes and panem et circenses?
John Nelson
How are you even allowed to post here? This isn't a Chinese nationally sponsored site. They ban Facebook but let you cone here?
Evan Richardson
Vienna has centuries of culture, art, museums and historical architecture. It was once the seat of an empire. Munich is just another German city.
Ayden Long
kek alri munich has like 20 times the pull of vienna
Lucas Evans
Why not just use this?
Cameron Myers
how is possible that rome is under milan?
Ian Lewis
>Palmerston North not in T1
This list is nothing but desperation and delusion
Leo Cruz
Because Rome is full of terrone. It has good architecture and history but Milan has a much stronger economy and is a capital of global fashion.
Mason Morales
>Tfw, not living in NYC, Shanghai, Seoul, Tokyo, Hong Kong, Moscow, Paris, Milan or London, but in this second -tier city instead why even live?
Hunter Lee
List is complete shit
And Seoul being Tier 1 lmao
Austin King
That list is stupid and the methodology different. Mexico city is pretty much top tier on that list, but who in their right mind would call Mexico a 'prestigious' city?
Landon Jackson
Seoul is basically the entire korean economy and worth 1 trillion USD in gdp. It is also a cultural capital and has one of the highest tourism levels in the world. No german city comes close.
Germany doesnt do cities well, you are more spread out.
Nathaniel Gomez
But it's soulless capitalism
It's nothing but skyscrapers and shopping malls
Caleb Walker
If culture means anything dubai would be shit tier. Now tell us how you are allowed to post here
Bentley Williams
If I took Seoul out of T1 I'd have to take Hong Kong out as well because HK is clearly inferior. Both are 'souless'' capitalism but Seoul has a vibrant dynamic energy to it.
Juan Howard
>Warsaw
kek
Hudson Taylor
Cred Forums is not banned in China. Also I have a Cred Forums pass.
Jonathan Lopez
And where is prestige in that?
Hong Kong at least has history. Seoul is a fucking high rise shithole with absolutely zero interest other than HALLYU.
Korean history is all hidden in the North.
Landon Foster
Seoul has thousands of years of history. HK only exists since the 19th century because it was a colony of the UK. HK got rich off of China's economic growth.
Jackson Watson
>Toronto is t3 hmmm yeah... about that...
Liam Sanders
Tier 4 at best
William Wilson
Not an argument my flyover friend.
Evan Bell
>NY tier 1 It's a shithole t. Escaped NYC
Gavin Hernandez
I live in NYC and lived in Abu Dhabi and Dubai.
So yes. It's good not being poor.
William Garcia
>shanghai >prestigious
Hunter Hall
Where in NYC did you live? >korean history is all hidden in the north
kek well meme'd my friend
Ryan Powell
San Francisco should not be on this list, LA should go up one.
Brandon Morris
Vienna is shithole
Carter Scott
Fuck off leaf
Dylan Davis
Hong Kong t1
This crowded shithole
Daniel Flores
Youre just mad because your sisters and cousins all fled the Shitpines to become maids there for some rich Cantonese chinks, aren't you Marcelo?
Grayson Reed
Its pretty prestigious.
Easton Rogers
LA is literally a mexican city. It's been declining since the LA riots.
Easton Butler
>Seoul has thousands of years of history. too bad nothing is left
Hong Kong has 100 times more prestige than Seoul
Cooper Watson
HK is on the decline. In a decade it will be a tier 2 city. Its no longer the main financial center of Asia, it isn't producing many great films as back in the day. Its increasingly politically unstable with large scale demonstrations.
Jack Peterson
I love SA, but it is irrelevant as fuck.
Austin is 500,000 people.
Houston is a shithole
Zachary Watson
So what? It still has more prestige than Seoul
Levi Jenkins
Because Cred Forums is not banned in China, unlike Russia.
Ethan Garcia
I don't live in a major city Feels good man
Landon Williams
HK still beats any chink mainland city, including Shanghai. I've bet you've never even been there.
Elijah Robinson
Are you retarded?
>flag Oh okay
Anthony Cooper
Born and raised in Jakara, it's shit for the most part
Jayden Morales
Shanghai and HK are very close in power mi amigo.
I give Shanghai the edge because of its economy and social arts scene.
Charles Baker
>Moscow - tier 1 >St Petersburg - tier 2 Get the fuck outta here, stupid churka,
Bentley Watson
Indonesia is shit for the most part so what is your point?
Also, stop setting your islands on fire.
Ryan Hall
Why hasn't China taken in more Congo refugees?
Lincoln Brown
it's a polluted shithole. one big steaming turd with a couple fancy skyscrapers on it, packed full of low class nongs from the countryside
Juan Sanders
>hurdur I am a retard
Yes we realized that when we saw your flag. Now move along, Petrov.
Dominic Roberts
>Florence >irrelevant
Maybe not economically/politically relevant, but how's that not prestigious ffs
Colton Phillips
I wonder how people live in the cities like Vilnius, Riga or Tbilisi. Do they never wish to go to Petersburg, Moscow or other better and richer cities?
Justin Williams
Because they aren't idiots.
So is HK you dumbfuck.
Samuel Morales
said the fat fuck who's never stepped out of his parents basement in michigan
James Cox
>new york tier 1 place 1 stopped reading right there.
Ethan Murphy
I would rather move to Tallinn or something similar - pretty nice city, far better then Moscow.
Colton Cox
Well let us see: 1. Headquarters of the UN 2. NYSE 3. Global economic powerhouse 4. Hundreds of major corporations HQ'd here 5. Birth of rap/hip-hop and other music genres
etc, etc, etc.
NYC has been more culturally significant in the past 300 years than Almania has been in all its history.
Jordan Turner
>Birth of rap/hip-hop and other music genres
That last sentence is a biiit of a stretch tho
Samuel Wood
>Emirati Arab Ah yes, you are already known as extremely dumb on here.
Jace Hill
>ctrl+f "Nice" >2 results but not the city shit list desu
Caleb Ward
>UN would be a good argument. but your count and russia makes the UN pointless and insignificant. >NYSE biggest stock exchange. but shanghai is not far behind >3.Global economic powerhouse see nyse >Hundreds of major corporations HQ'd here third time reposting the same argument >Birth of rap/hip-hop and other music genres ... ohh shit this was bait
Luke Peterson
t. butthurt german "Hip hop as music and culture formed during the 1970s when block parties became increasingly popular in New York City, particularly among African-American youth residing in the Bronx.[14] "
Yeah, maybe a bit of your mother's vagina was stretched by my massive cock. Never even heard of Nice until your asses got rammed by that truck LOL!!!
Jose Gomez
alot of it is destroyed by the japs but theres still tons of historic buildings left considering it used to be the capital of Jeseon for the longest time. They're also in the process of renovating/rebuilding many of the cultural buildings thanks to the fact that the Koreans took meticulous records
Joshua Campbell
Shanghai is already ahead of Hong Kong. HK may be richer than Shanghai on a per capita basis but overall Shanghai is an economic behemoth and the gateway to China. Ironically Shanghai has become a more international city than HK, there are far more Westerners in SH than in HK now. And SH is still rapidly growing while HK is stagnating at best. Just walk the streets of Shanghai and the number of luxury cars, mercedes, audis even ferraris and lambos is stunning.
Grayson Baker
Fellow Masshole stepping in. Our city is tiny yet pretty prestigious, we definitely deserve better than being excluded.
Parker Garcia
Even Lyon and Marseille are more likely to be on the list than Nice. But other than Paris, no French city is relevant.
Blake Lopez
I never doubted NYC is the birthplace of Hip Hop. Just funny to list it as something important while it clearly is nigger culture.
Liam Murphy
If Florence could be on the list, so could Venice. But you need more than just a great history and lots of art and culture to be relevant. You need to have a strong economy, you need millions of people, you need to be modern and dynamic.
Cameron Thompson
I was memeing, of course it's irrelevant. Still a nice place to live though
Evan Young
It's nigger culture indeed, but at the same time you simply cannot negate (kek; niggate) the impact that hip-hop has on music all around the world. Heck, even South Koreans and chinks are trying their best to imitate. Arabs too.
Easton King
It's not even that small desu it has one of the largest metro populations in the country
Christopher Cruz
There is this boring ass bland palace from your pic and that city gate got burned down by a madman and apart from that hmmm
clearly you've never been to Korea and you're just talking out of your ass. And fuck you I hate kpop
Thomas Cooper
I've been to Seoul multiple times and it is a complete shithole only Koreaboos can find any sort of enjoyment in.
Charles Lopez
Yes, but compared to New York, our eternal neighbor, we're just some suburbs and prestigious colleges. We haven't created a clear identity for ourselves in terms of world image. Boston is a great place, but we need to move out of NYC's shadow.
Lucas Campbell
That's mean but true. We're one of the better American cities, but still lack relevance. NYC>>>LA>Chicago>DC>San Fransisco>Boston
Connor Jackson
Seen youtube videos of Seoul and it looks clean and modern like Tokyo. Granted videos won't tell ya how the people really are etc.
Only reason for me to visit is if I wanted to try authentic Korean food.
Isaac Reyes
lolwut
In HK you see are whites, Africans, indians, Flips and SEA asians everywhere along with the local chinese.
In Shanghai you can go days in most of the city without seeing a foreigner (usually white) unless you go downtown
Joshua Sanchez
>they fell for the city meme
Grayson Diaz
I used to love HK action movies back in the day. Now I don't hear much about HK unless its their people having fights with mainlanders overs stupid shit.
Dominic Perry
Phoenix belongs on tier 3
Luis Russell
Snake?
Easton Miller
IMO some of those are more notorious than prestigious these days. Particularly Johannesburg and Mexico City.
Benjamin Reyes
>no Dallas
Nicholas Rogers
LA county has a bigger economy than London and Paris, let alone shitholes like Milan and Moscow. It's "tier 2" top kek
Wyatt Thomas
>In Shanghai you can go days in most of the city without seeing a foreigner
Nonsense. If you are in JingAn, French concession area, Huangpu and Xuhui, you will see many foreigners. Also, the quality of foreigners in Shanghai is higher than in HK. While HK has mostly third world black people and SE asians, Shanghai's foreigners are either white westerners or koreans and japanese.
Gavin Mitchell
LA is a declining city. Its saving grace is its proximity to the entertainment industry and it still has that cultural pull. But demographically it is majority mexican and the economy is going down fast. Its becoming increasingly decrepit and is not very livable. I predict it will end up like other rust belt cities, like cleveland or pittsburg.
Isaac Morgan
Yes.
Nathaniel Lee
Someone who has actually visited it dumb fuck, it sure beats just making lists out of your ass to have methodology
Austin Gutierrez
You mean majority Chinese and Mexican, also you don't know shit about economics.
Jackson Bennett
If the list was based on percentage chance of getting beheaded, I would definitely put Mexico city in Tier 1, alonside Aleppo, Mosul, Islamabad, Raqqa and Tehran.
Easton Flores
But it isn't, it's based on living standards, culture, politics and trade/economy, that a single Chinese city is considered a tier above, and none other equal, is something you can cry about in your sleep dumb ass
Jackson Baker
>tfw live in NYC
Nathan Roberts
>Dublin Ty kebab
Aiden Johnson
>Muh third world shitholes
A quarter of the cities on that list barely have flushing toilets.
