What could it possibly have been before? 
Did you un-visit NYC? (not an altogether bad idea)

haha yea that too, if you're into it. And roundabouts if you like that, Carmel has the most in the US and I think Avon might have the second most.

Nothing? Did the Colts relocate?

[paulthemapguy]

This is easy.  LA.  Never cared to go.  Been to the Bay Area 3 times and San Diego twice.  But never cared for the idea of LA.  Will probably end up there in the next couple years though.

^Inquiring minds what to know.^

[silverback1065]

I visited LA last year, didn't like it, leaving NYC as the largest city I've not been to yet, isn't LA bigger than NYC (metro area comparisons)  There are plenty of smaller places I've not been to yet.

New York City is bigger.

Avon OH? They only have one on their southern border. I would think Green Bay would be up there.

[silverback1065]

Avon, IN, not ohio

"Inland Empire" is used for Washington east of the Cascades.

Ah, well at least inquiring minds now know.

Never been to NYC or Houston. Visited LA, Denver, Twin Cities, and Orlando and live in Chicago. Driven or did connections through Cleveland, Pittsburgh, and Atlanta

[adventurernumber1]

For me:


1. New York City Metro Area => Been to at the very beginning of 2015 (New Year's).

*** 2. Los Angeles Metro Area => Never been to.

3. Chicago Metro Area => Been to in July 2012.

4. Dallas-Fort Worth Metro Area => Been to in July 2015.

5. Houston Metro Area => Never been to.

I have been to three of the five most populous metropolitan areas in the United States. Los Angeles is the largest metro area I have not been in.


Now, here is a list, in order, of the largest U.S. metro areas I have not been in:

1. Los Angeles
2. Houston
3. Washington, D.C.
4. Philadelphia
5. Miami (Note: my parents have been here, but not me - however, thanks to them, I do actually have some road videos on my channel from Metro Miami, even though I obviously did not take these specific ones myself)
6. Phoenix
7. Riverside-San Bernardino (The Inland Empire, in southern California)
8. Detroit
9. Seattle
10. Minneapolis-St. Paul
11. San Diego (Note: my parents have been here, but not me)
12. Tampa-St. Petersburg (Note: my parents, each as a child, has been to this area, but not me)
13. St. Louis (even though some of my family lives there)
...and the list goes on...
