Dallas vs. Tampa WADM Help

[wallacejonathank]

Hi Fastlaners!

I'm Jonathan, and I just finished The Millionaire Fastlane (first ever post)! I took a crack at MJD's WADM as I'm deciding to move to either Dallas or Tampa. I'm looking to get some feedback on my rankings when it comes to the cost of living and business climate, etc. I've only visited these cities very briefly, so I never got to fully explore them. I based these rankings on the stats from bestplaces.net. If anybody from Dallas or Tampa would be able to chime in, that would be much appreciated.

Quick background: 26 and single - I'm currently in Philadelphia (hometown).
