Another Meaningless Survey in Which Dallas Shows Up on a List

An alert FBvian points us to news of a Harris interactive poll that asked Americans which city they’d most (and least) like to live in or near. New York, not surprisingly, tops both lists. And there are a few big cities (San Francisco, Los Angeles) that make both lists. Dallas only makes the list of cities that Americans don’t want to live in. We’re No. 9. By the year 2050, the population of North Texas is expected to double, to 12 million people. I’m just saying.

    Obviously this poll was generated for New York Yankee fans to feel better for themselves in this time of their baseball depression. -IJS

  2. I love living here. Maybe those people who were polled really like Dallas and want to keep it a secret…we don’t need another 6 million people!

  3. Who really reads USA Today? Old people? People eating breakfast at the Hyatt Suites in Cincinnati while updating the slide deck on Q3 sales?

    Here’s the magazine survey that really counts!
