chicago and toronto are about as "incredibly similar" as boston and DC, similar distances separate the pairs as well (~400 miles).

there's some macro-level superficial stuff - great lakes, densely populated (by north american standards), giant skylines - but beyond those 30,000' observations, the details on the ground between the two are quite a bit different, along with fairly different histories, demographics, local culture, etc.

likewise with DC and boston - big east coast cities filled with lots of US history - but they are not "essentially twins".
