The entire list is a non sequitur,,, Some lists types of music, some lists artists, some lists cities or areas. Which is it?
Exactly this. Is it places where people were born or is it destinations?
Destinations are Memphis, Austin, and Nashville. Those places are where pretty much everyone that is actually historic and listed on this thread went to launch their careers into significance.
Times are changing though. Memphis is mostly just history now(still the best history) and Austin has lost its monopoly on alt-country with many of today’s top acts skipping over it completely and staying closer to their roots. Nashville is still being Nashville.

These 10 cities and smaller towns that punched well above their weight pop to mind as focal points of developing music scenes, sounds, and genres.
In no order:
New Orleans
Memphis
Miami (disco, latin, 80s electro etc -- if we're not just talking about music middle aged white dudes like)
Muscle Shoals
Athens
Austin
Nashville
St Louis
Clarksdale, Miss
Atlanta (Hip Hop)
