Cleveland's not even in the top 40 in terms of crime rate by city
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States...s_by_crime_rate
Were not in the top 100 in terms of coldest cities with atleast 50,000 in population

And as far as sports, atleast we have a team in the three major sports, Indians, Cavs, Browns. Weather or not a Team has won a championship in the last decade isnt a barometer as to weather the cites miserable to live in. Columbus has no professional teams and a higher crime rate. There reasoning for selecting Cleveland #1 has no merit.
