SURVEY RESULTS Orlando may be the hands-down favorite destination for vacationing families, but a poll Travel + Leisure recently conducted with AOL's Travel Channel reveals several other popular urban holidays. Nearly a half-million AOL members point the way:

BEST OVERALL VALUE FOR VISITING FAMILIES Minneapolis-St. Paul: land of 10,000 lakes, the Mall of America, the Minnesota Children's Museum, and the Children's Theatre Company—which last year became the first kids' theater ever to receive a Tony Award.

BEST RESTAURANTS FOR ALL AGES After Orlando (don't miss Animal Kingdom's Jiko): San Francisco, San Diego, San Antonio, and Honolulu.

MOST UP-TO-THE-MINUTE FUN FOR TEENS Almost as popular as Orlando:San Diego and its theme parks; surfer-centric Honolulu; and San Antonio—hello, Alamo, Riverwalk, and SPAhhhT, the hip kids' spa at the Hyatt Regency Hill Country.

MOST FAMILY-FRIENDLY HOTELS Orlando, Las Vegas, Honolulu, San Diego, and Phoenix-Scottsdale were rated tops in hospitality.
