Cincinnati is where you see and experience a normal American life. Weather has seasons and a temper. Nothing is world class, but you can experience the arts, community, and business at a rather high level.

Hamburg and Cologne are somewhere with the Frankfurt, but Frankfurt is more luxurious.

Downtown Houston was once a desolate cluster of office buildings that was abandoned at sundown. But now, downtown is currently undergoing a transformation and will soon (5~ years) make for an inhabitable and nomad friendly destination.

People are generally open-minded and friendly. The cost of living is high but it allows you to be able to afford other places on earth easily if you can find a job here. You can also find plenty of good restaurants and arts around in the city. I recommend to stay at least 3-6 months to get the feel of living a PNW life.
