They're full of adventure waiting to happen, and secrets waiting to be discovered. They keep you guessing. They're exciting and unpredictable. They are, in short,  The  Most Interesting Cities in America . Factors In honor of Jonathan Goldsmith (who celebrated his 76 th  birthday in September), we sought to determine which U.S. cities are most interesting. To do so, we collected data on the 200 largest cities and rated them according to the following four factors. Bars per 10,000 residents.  Interesting things happen at bars. Strangers become friends.
