Disclaimer I'm not from Cardiff and i have never lived in the city either.
Is it a great place to visit, absolutely.
Is there a lot wrong with it, of course.
Pointless to compare it with other places as each city has its own identity forged over, in most cases, centuries.
Just appreciate what we have and hope the blot on the landscape that is the high rise , architectural nightmare, student accommodation stops and the glorious Victorian arcades are maintained.
Bring back Asteys and the Lious as well.
