Rising Star
T1 - NY, LA, SF
T2 - who cares
T3 - practically villages
T4 - lol
SF - the best if you love over-crowded male bars with little to no females in sight. And the coolest guy there is a data nerd.

From a global perspective, NY is the only T1 city. Domestically - NYC & LA are T1.
Tier 1: NYC, London, Tokyo, Paris, Hong Kong, Beijing
Tier 2: Dubai, Singapore, Los Angeles, Chicago, DC, SF, etc.
Tier 2.5: Frankfurt, Brussels, Mumbai, etc.
Tier 3. Atlanta etc.
Take it up with the Globalization and World Cities Research Network. Not me :)
I personally love Berlin and the 25 cent beer.

Tier 1 is 1-10
Tier 2 is 11-20
Tier 3 is 21-30
Tier 4 is 31-40
Tier 5 is everything else.
NYC T2 confirmed according to SM1. Hamilton is the only T1 city in North America since it is 44% more expensive than any other city, putting it in a separate tier.
In terms of TC- cost of living drives it and HR decides...
Tier 1 is NYC, LA, DC, and maybe Chicago. Some people try to fit SF here (too many homeless) but it’s clearly behind Chicago.
Overall it comes down to restaurants, housing depth / quality, and job/career options as a distant third.
Tier 3 are a bunch of rust belt / small cities nobody cares about that want to yell over each other. Personally don’t care if Cincinnati is better than Kansas City
Definite ranking: Omaha is T1, Albany is T2 and NYC T3
Where does Austin, tx sit then? T2 or T3?
BDA1: Atlanta and Austin are not comparable, but not the way you are explaining. Atlanta’s food scene, universities, airport, diversity are all very strong. Not to mention the number of f500 that are headquartered there.
