Also, I was thinking about where Cleveland is better than Chicago, and I could only think of a few things:
- Little Italy neighborhood (I've heard their are better ones in the suburbs of Chicago, but I only saw the one by Univ of Illinois at Chicago)
- Indoor Food Market -- Cleveland's Historical Westside Market https://www.city-data.com/forum/cleveland/1055087-clevelands-westside-market-named-best-america.html
- Cleveland's Theater District (Second largest outside of NYC)
- Classical Orchestra's (TIED -- both are a part of the BIG FIVE in America)
- Major Hostpitals -- Cleveland Clinic and Rainbow Babies @ University Hospitals
Other than that, Chicago wins in every other category ...including Sports
Because I was pretty sure LA, San Francisco or Chicago was #2 in total theaters/seats, and I know Minneapolis was #2 in total seats/capita......so how is Cleveland #2, and do you have a source?
