Denver also ranks near the bottom in architecture/cool buildings (No. 25) and diversity (No. 24 -- and that's according to visitors who answered the poll; residents ranked it as No. 34!).
But hey, we're No. 1 in the categories of athletic/active, public parks and outdoor access, and pet-friendly vacations. Waiter, another round for my dog!
The results were tabulated from a survey that was posted online at Travel + Leisure for several months this summer. You can drill down into the results on Travel & Leisure's website, which also lets you pit one city against another.
Sadly, there's no mechanism that allows you to pit this list against all the other lists that publicity-seeking outfits keep releasing.
