Simply another city on a TRAIN or on a BUS, all things being equal, spin the dial and pick a town.

well I selected downtown, but you are simply asking me as a tourist....I happen to like touring urban places

But places like Orlando show that lots of people in America like to travel to amusement parks and other non-urban places.

And lots of business travellers end up going near airports for meetings such that people from out of town can get there easily.
