Philadelphia ranks 9th on an Atlantic Cities list of most powerful U.S. cities, behind Dallas and a step ahead of Miami.

Given that Philadelphia tends to qualitatively compare itself to east coast brethren like Washington D.C. and Boston, ranked 3rd and 4th respectively, coming in 9th suggests quite a bit of room for quantitative improvement.

The list was generated by applying Atlantic Cities Senior Editor Richard Florida’s Combined Global City Index just to U.S. cities. On a global scale, New York, LA and Chicago were the only U.S. cities to make the cut, according to The Atlantic.
