Which city would you rather have to live in, if you had ABSOLUTELY no choice?

[MCheetah]

I got this from a podcast, Midnight's Edge.
I'd choose Gotham City in a heartbeat.

Los Angeles, California

Gotham City, New Jersey

[TroyDT2]

Gotham. And Batman is not the only one who is known for protecting that city. There was another for a time.

[exitseven]

I would live in Gotham. after all I'm Batman.

[exitseven]

Thanks for the MHO😎

[ShadezMcgee]

... fuck that, I will just go to the woods. LA is a shit hole and New Jersey ain't much better.

[MCheetah]

New Jersey IS better, though! Tom's River is pretty nice, LOL!

[ChiTown33]

Metropolis. I prefer my city to be guarded by a son of Krypton then some moody, clown, in a bat suit.🤣

[MCheetah]

Ten times more people die in Metropolis to supervillain-related crimes though, but your choice! 🤷‍♂️

[ChiTown33]

🤣👍💯

Los Angeles has a higher crime rate. Imagine having a higher crime rate than a fictional city

[MCheetah]

This is literally true. A fact! I just looked it up!

"The number of REPORTED violent crimes in Los Angeles in 2021 was 30,078; the city's crime rate was 804.28 per 100,000 people."
LA had 397 homicides in 2021.

xtown.la/2022/01/10/los-angeles-murders-2021/

Gotham City's number of homicides, in the year this fictional data was taken, was only 389. That would make Gotham City's crime rate about 789 per 100,000 people. Meaning factually, yes, Gotham City is SAFER than Los Angeles!

Neat!

[Chazmatazz269]

They’re the same. Gotham is modeled after every crime-ridden metropolis.

[MCheetah]

Gotham doesn't have Hollywood and open and proud pedophiles though.

[alice55]

Gotham cause i would be able to see Batman

[MCheetah]

Only if you're committing crime or climb the top of the police station where the Bat-signal is.

[alice55]

Or if i m attacked
But i would just go to the police station 😹

[Sasahara]

LA. LA might be bad but I would rather not live a place with super villains.

[ChooChooHaha]

Gotham from the comics is in NY.

[MCheetah]

No, it's not. It's always been in southeastern New Jersey.

[ChooChooHaha]

But there's an area (maybe a borough) called Gotham in NY. Plus isn't The Empire State in Batman stuffs?

What makes you so sure it's in NJ?

[MCheetah]

It's literally DC canon. And always has been.

And Metropolis is in Delaware.
Only in the movies, did they base them off of New York (Metropolis) and Chicago (Gotham).

[MCheetah]

*southwestern New Jersey

[ChooChooHaha]

WHAT? Makes it less theatrical to me. 😂 🤷‍♀️ If you say so. JERSEY? My favorite superhero of all time = Jersey Boy? HOLY SHIT. 🤯
