Everyone voting for Gotham City is high. It’s Batman’s city, but it’s always full of crime and it’s where the worst psychopaths live. Your love of Batman is getting in the way of good judgment.
If I really had to choose, I’d pick Coast City. There’s just something cool about saying you live in the “City without Fear”. If by chance the random villain shows up, he’s either heading over to the Jordan’s or atomizing the city. I’m pretty sure being atomized hurts less than Joker Venom.
…. Where would I be least likely to die?
Is that map official? I’m not american but I always assumed Gotham was Chicago and Metropolis was NY.
@Randallw – check out Atlas of the DC Universe http://www.karridian.net/dcatlas.html I’m pretty sure this is the official locations based on years of information.
man i wouldnt live in the dc univers if you paid me
Actually, I thought Metropolis and Gotham were both in a fictionally-expanded New York State?
Who wouldn’t want to live in Central City? It’s got the Flash Museum for crissakes. Metropolis would be cool for the Superman factor, but if something attacks Earth, guess where the first stop usually is? Nuh-uh, I don’t feel like being the goo on Mongul’s boot.
Not sure if its cowardice or common sense but I would not want to live in any of them. I mean really purposely going to any of them is kinda asking for it.
I’m with Maximus Rift in wondering why people would want to live in Gotham. Metropolis all the way for me. Sure bad things happen but Superman might live right next door.
Fawcett city.
…..So it’s agreed that I would feel just a tad bit safer in the staying in the Murderopolis that is Baltimore for the time being.
Gateway City. It’s got Wonder Girl and Arrowette, it’s West Coast for a short allergy season, and it’s low crime and low vaporization, comparitively.
