The choice isn't between Calgary and any of those cities. The choice is between the places I listed. Can you honestly say that DC or Philly suck so bad that you would rather live in Mumbai or Cairo?
Seeing as how I live in an area that probably has the 2nd highest concentration of people from India in the world (1st being India, of coarse)... I can tell you many of them would prefer to live in Mumbai then Houston (many have lived in Houston, lots of tech hubs there). Some prefer Channai to San Jose. I would take Bangkok over Philly...

As you would say, besides a few shiny buildings and arena's, some of those cities you list sucks...
