Top 10 Most Overrated Cities
Yayy! When I voted for it it changed from #3 to #2. It deserves this high ranking. What's in this city anyways? Crowds, crowds and crowds. Oh, and homeless people.
You are just picking popular cities! Do you actually know the definition of "overrated"
Movies are boring now because its plot is always in New York city
The reason it isn't #1 is because I live there and I like it
Los Angeles, officially the City of Los Angeles and often abbreviated as L.A., is the largest city in California. It has an estimated population of nearly 4 million, and is the second-largest city in the United States, after New York City, and the third-largest city in North America, after Mexico City and New York City. Los Angeles is known for its Mediterranean climate, ethnic and cultural diversity, Hollywood entertainment industry, and its sprawling metropolitan area. ...read more. Why isn't LA number 1? It's very economically unequal, it's full of narcissistic freaks who care only about themselves, traffic is deplorable, cost of living is outrageous, and finding parking is more valuable than gold. While Los Angeles may be full of culture and has a very comfortable climate, the cons outweigh the pros, and unless you have a ton of money, you'd hate it here.
Uggly, racist and hostile city, take it Hollywood away and it's like Salt Lake city.
Getting tired of this fame garbage and the same ol Kardashian bogus.

Opened in 1900, the city's subway system, the Paris Métro, serves 5.23 million passengers daily. It's a beautiful place and has a lot of cultural things to see, but once that's been hit there isn't too much to do. It doesn't quite live up to it's romanticized expectations.
Food is too expensive and not even that much different from what I've had in Arizona. It's like, $14 USD for a plain crepe with 1 topping. While the attractions are nice too, its like $60 a pop...
The city of love? Yeah, sure. There are also pickpockets here.
San Francisco, officially the City and County of San Francisco, is the cultural, commercial, and financial center of Northern California. A city is its people. Too many people in this city are out of touch with a reality other than their own. You get the sinking feeling that most people are miserable behind the facade. They are always trying to convince you they care about everything... but you can't help but notice they are just self absorbed. Too humid.
Cramped, Sideways, Expensive, Dreary, Politically Extreme

Dubai is the most overrated city imaginable. The city was built using money from hydrocarbons and slave labour from developing countries in Africa and Asia such as Egypt, Sudan, Somalia, India, Pakistan & Indonesia, Dubai's human rights situation is horrendous (especially for political opponents, women, sexual minorities and transgenders) and the city has little to offer in terms of activities and sights.
If you visit Dubai then good luck with public transportation as it is limited. Like Houston and Los Angeles, the city was rebuilt around the car. The city's "culture" is limited to skyscrapers, shopping malls, highways and American-style suburbs with cookie-cutter housing and cul-de-sacs, actual Emirati culture is close to non-existent as Emiratis form a minority within their own country and good luck if your income is below US$100000. Dubai, like Monaco, is a hide-out for the wealthy but at least Monaco has a better beach, an opera house, an orchestra, a casino, football, F1 ...more

Choose Montreal or Toronto, because this is simply hideous
Overpriced with an out of control homeless, drug addict problem. Try walking a block without stepping over a needle or human feces.
After having visited it multiple times, its not nearly as good as they say, I'm a Montrealer, and its just expensive ugly and boring in Vancouver
While Canada is underrated, Vancouver is the most overrated city in Canada lol.
