Where Would You Like To Live?

[GregoryJoseph]

If money (and a job) wasn't an object and could live anywhere in the United States (or the world, I guess) where would you choose?

Obviously you'd want the kind of climate you prefer, but what else do you need?

Do you prefer a big city or a small town? Do you need culture or is scenery more important?

Mountains or an ocean?

Lakes and streams or skyscrapers?

[JohnCharles]

I think this question has come up before.

Either way, I would live in San Diego.

[hammersavage]

Austin but only for a few years before being away from NY would bother me.

[GregoryJoseph]

I would live in San Diego.

It's the absolute PERFECT climate, but I don't know if there's enough of what I'm into there.

I like mountains and streams and lakes far more than the ocean, and I also like having a bit of peace and quiet.

A small town suits me much better than a large city.

[biggirl]

Somewhere in western Montana.....Livingston or Bozeman area. Another place I would like to live is northern Minnesota by Walker. We spend a lot of time up there because Ryan's family is from there.

I need a place to relax and be able to surround myself with nature and clean air. Plus my son just loves it up north. I would love to be able to move him up there. He asks every time we go.

Big cities excite me, but there's no way I could ever live in one. I like my itty bitty Minnesota towns. The trees, the lakes, the wildlife....all of it.

[RhinoinMN]

Bozeman, MT

[JohnCharles]

Look at the ocean.

Turn around.

See mountains, go to the rivers and lakes that exist within them.

That is what I would love.

[Ritalin]

I like the ocean, an urban environment, all four seasons.

I'm pretty damn happy where I am. Maybe I would move to Paris or Tokyo to experience something different, but I wouldn't move to a mountain town or a Caribbean island. I'd go nuts.

[RhinoinMN]

If northern MN had some small mountains it would heaven.

[TripleSkeet]

Look at the ocean.

Turn around.

See mountains, go to the rivers and lakes that exist within them.

That is what I would love.

My fathers hometown in Calabria, Italy is just what you described. Problem is its a ghost town all year except for 3 weeks in August.

[Suspect Chin]

Somewhere outside of Denver.

[GregoryJoseph]

THIS SITE (http://countrystudies.us/united-states/weather/) gives you the average highs and lows and precipitation every month for the major cities in each state.

Somewhere outside of Denver.

If Colorado Springs wasn't full of lunatics, it might be perfect.

Eh, there are lunatics everywhere.

is the weather the biggest factor for you?

[RhinoinMN]

Eh, there are lunatics everywhere.


Yeah, but CO has an abnormal amount of them. Lenny is there.

[GregoryJoseph]

is the weather the biggest factor for you?

It's a pretty major part, to be honest.

I DESPISE rain and the cold.

I love sunshine and mild temps, which is why I say San Diego is the ideal climate.

If I could find somewhere with similar weather but also with mountains, lakes, and streams I'd be set.

Las Vegas or Phoenix?

[GregoryJoseph]

Las Vegas or Phoenix?

Too damned hot in those places.

San Diego rarely gets above 80 degrees. Vegas and Phoenix routinely hit 120 in the summer.

I don't like the extremes.

[Recyclerz]

I like to be in America!
O.K. by me in America!
Ev'rything free in America
For a small fee in America!

[Suspect Chin]

Too damned hot in those places.

San Diego rarely gets above 80 degrees. Vegas and Phoenix routinely hit 120 in the summer.

I don't like the extremes.

I have the perfect place for you:

Branson, MO

Summers are great, winters are mild, plenty of water nearby, Ozark 'mountains' surround the city. Most importantly, you can watch Yakov every night of the week!

[BlackSpider]

When you're a jit, you're a jit all the way...

Too rainy.

[Suspect Chin]

Too rainy.

How do you expect to have lakes and streams without rain?

[GregoryJoseph]

How do you expect to have lakes and streams without rain?

I want them within driving distance. I don't want 4 inches of rain every month though.

[~Katja~]

anywhere in the world? I would love a small village in Greece... on one of the many islands. Mountains, beaches, great climate, a nice pace of life and fantastic local foods.

The island of lesvos I'm sure.
I have never been there, but Crete was great and Mykonos, Rhodes and Kos would interest me



oh and it seems Fez agrees with me (http://www.feztravel.com/Experience_Greece_and_Turkey_Tours.asp)

[epo]

Yeah, but CO has an abnormal amount of them. Lenny is there.

Colorado is so above index on lunatics. I have no idea how that happened.

[Suspect Chin]

Did Ron Bennington tell you that?

And you immediately went to your precious Europe.

i bet they have good malteds there

[JohnCharles]

Anyone up for Omaha?

funny how you americans are quick to chose another place in the US but judge people who would like to live in a different country with different culture and feel they could be happiest there. All just so you don't have to learn another language and adjust your life and habits.

[JohnCharles]

I bet they get so dirty that they become clean.

Kinda like drinking yourself sober.

I'd stab the President in the chest to live in England again.

[JohnCharles]

Fine.

If it rained much less, Vancouver.

That's in another country.

[~Katja~]

europeans are all ugly and stupid,like their countriesnah, they sent their ugly ancestors on boats to settle in the US and populate the area with ugly Americans

thats not funny
you are right, it's not. I am just trying to slay some humor.

[JohnCharles]

you are right, it's not. I am just trying to slay some humor.

Don't forget the joy.

[underdog]

If it had to be America, it would be NYC (Manhattan) or San Diego.

If I could choose anywhere in the world, either a Caribbean island or Barcelona.

[~Katja~]

Fine.

If it rained much less, Vancouver.

That's in another country.
I know it's shocking, but I like Canada and wouldn't mind living there for a bit.

[~Katja~]

Don't forget the joy.
I already killed joy

If I had to live in another country you can bet your bottom dollar it would be an English speaking country.

Maybe Australia or New Zealand.

Well, yeah. Manhattan.

Then Narnia.

[TripleSkeet]

You couldnt pay me to live there.

My biggest problem would be missing my tv shows.

I like where Im at now in South Jersey. Close to the city, close to the beach, everything I need within 5 minutes of my house, yet I have a driveway and a big backyard with a pool and alot of family close by.

I did LOVE living in Hollywood, Florida when I was younger though. The weather and location was just phenominal.

[Marc with a c]

You couldnt pay me to live there.

of course i could.

[GregoryJoseph]

I've lived my entire life just outside of Manhattan.

While I love going into the city, I could never live there.

I like that I can go outside at 8 or 9 o'clock at night and hear a pin drop a block away.

I also like owning a car and driving.

And I like my personal space.

The city would be a bit too much for me every day.
