Can you give examples of the factors you look at and what influences your decision?
I tend to raze if:
Distance makes maintenance costs too high
too many cities overlapping (increases maintenance but limited potential)
Too many coastal tile, but the city is not on the coast (means limited use sea tiles)
Other bad locations, little or no resources, or little food potential meaning I could not use it as an effective SE city.
Otherwise, I will keep the city.
Edit: I should add if I am pissed at a particular civilization, I will raze cities as part of a scorched-earth vengeful policy. Perhaps not smart, but can sure be fun!
