From your adventures, what states/area of the US do you think would be the best place to live? Price of living and small cities with beautiful scenery is what interests me....

This map sort of agrees with my perception of what states would be like. Green is good red i bad.

I am in PA now and love it, but if I pass nursing school I should have the option to move where ever I want to and find work, if it comes to that.
 
I found it at /b/:D There was a whole thread about it, so I figured I would ask Bluelight.
 
Never left the east coast, only been from new york to florida but I have to say Georgia is my favorite state out of all of them. Pretty scenery, lots of country and atlanta is off the hook.
 
What's that one circle on the right? (the left one is presumably Vegas?).

And is this a map of liberal/Democratic voting areas?

I've only visited: I liked Albuquerque, Philly, New York City, the green part of New Jersey, San Francisco. Didn't much like LA, Maine, the non-green part of Jersey. Neutral on Montana, New Orleans, San Diego - probably wouldn't live there, but they were OK. For me the ideal city is somewhere I can walk or use public transport, with decent, interesting neighbourhoods. So NYC would be good if I could afford it, SF also.
 
My map looks like this (light brown is good, dark brown is bad):

I know it says 1860, but things haven't changed much since then.
 
don't hate Texas! It's really not a bad place. We have cheap houses, nice weather, nice citites, and while there might be a lot of huge Baptist churches, you learn to ignore them.

I used to think Texas sucked until I moved here.
 
Colorado.

We have the mountains, so all outdoor fans go ape shit over the skiing/boarding/hiking/camping etc...that you can do out here.

We also have Red Rocks - every time I go to shows there and see out of state license plates I remember how damn lucky I am to live so close to this natural wonder.

And even though Denver isn't a super big city, it's still got lots of things to do, and is constantly growing. Clubs, bars, restaurants, museums, parks...there's all kinds of good stuff going on in the city.

Plus, we get 300+ days of sunshine a year - who can argue with that?

Isn't Colorado cold and snowy?

Well...in the winter, yes.

Even when there's snow, it's not necessarily cold, we actually get more average days of sun per year than almost any other state (even CA!)

Either way, the snow is a big plus for a lot of people, at least those that like winter sports.
 
I was born in Colorado, if given the chance I'd move back there without hesitating much if at all.

^ that's the only reason I'd move there. :P

Cali's already got it, though. And it's got surfing, too. :D

Yeah the ocean is about the only thing I can think of that Colorado really doesn't have...but the mountains out there don't even hold a candle to the Rockies...sorry.

When it comes down to the debate between CO and CA, I feel like it's pretty close, but CO wins out because CA seems so high maintenance and EXPENSIVE.

Granted, a lot of what people think about California comes from what they see on TV - which is all LA and Malibu and rich bitches driving Mercedes etc - and there's definitely places that aren't like that at all...but I don't think I could handle living there.

Simply, CO is down to earth.
 
who the hell cares about mountians? are ppl really discussing whose mountains are better? For wat? Wat do you use them for? To look at? I dont get it. lol
