Why these cities?
Economics, experience, education, networking and corporate strength goes into factor. From a city I want it to be profitable, prestigious institutions, have eligible bachelorettes, excellent nightlife and access to concierge on deck. That's why Los Angeles, Detroit, Boston, Vancouver & New York City capped the top 5. We go based on results not popularity from the mainstream because most mainstream viewers aren't rich, educated and ready to mingle.
