Me personally, I don't like Irvine, CA. It feels fake, corporate, unnatural. It's most likely because everybody there is high income and they're just corporate slaves.
All the cities in the USA except for New York and the small parts of other cities that are walkable
You're absolutely right about Paris. I've traveled to a number of big cities but Paris was the first city that I felt I was in actual danger. The first time was traveling around Montmartre, there were a number of aggressive scammers who grabbed my arm and tried to "give" me a bracelet. The second was traveling near a circus or park and I clearly wander too far off that I felt the need to run back to the train station.
Sure it was 10+ plus years ago, so maybe it's better now, amd there was much more of the city that I felt fine traveling around. In fact most of the city was fine. But on those two occasions, I've never felt less safe, and that includes traveling to LA where I saw a man kicked out of a bar... and then kicked in the middle of the road while a large crowd just watched.
Fuck Paris.
Budapest
Has anyone said this yet? Every U.S. city
Seattle is pretty great, as US cities go. NYC is hit and miss but also feels like a place where real people live real lives.
The ones that feel off have high levels of human trafficking, hope that helps
