And while true, I don't think you can fault Chicago with that itself. Everyone is different though so not everyone wants to visit a DC type of city all the time and is fine with Door County. However, I'd bet that the "majority" rules the other way.

I think St. Louis is as cool or cooler than San Diego and in some ways could hold its own against Philly. Heck, I dislike Indianapolis and I think it's in the same league as San Diego once you're past the beaches (and LA has beaches, so people don't really go from LA to SD for beaches). Indy doesn't have Tijuana, though, I'll give you that.
