I think Chicago makes the top 5. Las Vegas, New York, Miami, Los Angeles and Chicago should be the top 5, IMO.

Those would be my top 5 also. I think I'd put Chicago at 5 though, I can't really put another city over it.
I'd go
NYC
Miami
LV
LA
Chicago

I don't know about Chicago because it isn't known for its party scene. I think after NY,MIA, VEGAS and maybe LA, but after that it could go to any city.

Sure it is, clubs are open til 5AM. Invented House music...

ring a bell?

It is also more well rounded than Mia/Vegas/LA but I think those city have better venues. LA also shuts down at 2AM, so does SD/SF.

But Atlanta? LOL what's there to be proud of coming from the deep south?
You aren't a New Yorker, though. Your'e a smug transplant that moved there - the worst kind. Living there obviously boosts your ego, that's for sure.

I'm not from here, but I most certainly am proud to call this place home. You might figure it out when you grow up. In the meantime, travel a little. It's a real eye-opener.

You got clubs open that late in other cities too. I don't see how inventing House music helped your point........

Again, wait until the metro Census figures come out.

And if you REALLY want to see stark segregation, why don't you throw up the map of your precious New York? Now THATS what I call segregation.
