Where I live would be great if people in the apartment building next door didn't think that my yard was their yard. It works out that I'm only 50 feet away from them and they cannot stay inside their apartments. They seem to be outside talking and partying all the time. Sometimes I hear them at 3 AM. If it's cold they burn fires out there. I guess that's what dope and booze do to you.

Then we have the weather problem. I hate winters. I always have. It's too frigging cold.

I hate where I live, but many like it.

When I was a young adult I use to live just up 16th St. From the White House and loved that city now that I'm older I have acres live in the country, southern Virginia, and have no neighbors and I love that too.

Try Fort Davis , TX

Waco wouldn’t be a good choice.

where i live now is good in some ways, not in others. i am in the twin cities. i loved living in los angeles, and i adored living in new york. i would have liked to live right in town instead of brooklyn but, you know... money! i do not recommend florida unless you like humidity, old people on drugs driving on the sidewalks, and rick scott.

I am from the coast of NC, currently live in the mountains of NC - the only down side is religion & politics but maybe one day that will change - one can hope, right?
I have lived in CA. (San Diego & Irvine), CO. (Summit County), OK. (Carter County - 1/2 between OKC & Fort Worth), TX (just outside Austin), VA (north western) and WA (Poulsbo - across the sound from Seattle). Each place has wonderful aspects - you just have to find one that fits you.
I love to try new places - my theory, you can always move! But you have to give each location at least 2 years.

Everybody has to be some place. That's why I'm here. I don't have a compelling reason to move. I have a hundred year old house that could use lots of work, but it's paid for. I'm retired and can easily handle my bills. I'm close enough to the Dallas area that I can go down there if I feel the need for horrendous traffic. We have all the major chain eating places, but I cook at home. It's a red area, I dislike that but it would cost me a lot more to live elsewhere. I've been here since '83, so it's home.

Yes, I do. Moved from the Phoenix area to Michigan. Live in a (not officially) historic building in the center of a small town, a few hundred yards from a Great Lake. Huge change in so many ways. Though I'm still adjusting to it, I do like the fact it's not hectic as The Valley. I'm much less wound up.

Yes. Because Songkhla, Thailand is a tropical paradise, and I live six minutes by motorbike from the beach.

I plan to move to Lexington, KY, this year to be near my artist daughter for a while, and then maybe move to Albuquerque, NM, near where I used to live in Durango, CO, in the early 1980s, and where I used to love to go skiing and visit the zoo to pet the manta rays.

My youngest sister and her kids and grandkids are moving there, and my other sister lives nearby.

I've been to 48 states and lived in 11 of them. I prefer the south since I love to garden and prefer warm weather over cold. Sunshine is my friend. Also, the cost of living is so incredibly low where I currently live and housing is cheap. Therefore, money goes a lot further.

A native Oregonian, I relocated to SW Virginia 3 years ago. There’s heavy rain in the summer and fire season’s in the winter; and warm rain = humidity. I’m on the crest of the Blue Ridge, so it’s a little cooler in summer & colder in winter. Winters are dry, sunny, and punctuated with bouts of warmth.

Local politics is red, and too many churches of course.. But State government’s fairly progressive, a blue shift from purple. Cost of living is low and infrastructure is good. Jobs are sparse, but if half-educated, they’re there.. I’m digging in, and unlike Oregon (entire PNW), these old mountains are stable.

You did not say what your employment situation is...find a job first and then follow the money. The question of how you will support yourself should be first and foremost...it is a basic matter of survival.

Nashville. Because its awesome, fun and easy to meet people

You don't like where you live unless you live in Canada. Move to Canada.

You're welcome.

I'm in the South of VA.. Near the ocean, that create some anxiety every time there is a hurricane coming this way. So I would move near the mountains if I could..o

I live in Southern California and I love it, It's left leaning, Cannabis is legal and everywhere. Fresh organic food abounds. You have the beach, the mountains, you have culture and diversity. There's always lots to do, but there's traffic everywhere, you have to time your drives, or use navigation to get around it, and it's very expensive to live here. Oh, and it's hot most of the year, lol!

I like where I live, because everything is 7 to 10 minutes away. Most of the people are friendly and non judgmental. I would like to buy a bigger house in my town in the future. I suggest a smaller city in Illinois, if you decide to move. It will be more peaceful.

I am not crazy about where I live, but I live in NYC and there's plenty to love about this place. I've been here for 20 years, so I've "done" it...but what I mainly wanted to suggest, if you haven't looked into, is if you have a decent apartment/house, maybe look into a swap with someone. I have known a couple of people who have done it because they have to (residency, project, etc.) and it's a good way to check out a town without committing to it completely. Just a thought. Good luck.

Idaho is a beautiful state. Lots of great parts. A bit on the right side of the spectrum for many but I have always loved it here.

I live in Southern California and love just about everything here except the traffic. It's bad but currently tolerable (barely) for now. Cannabis is legal and within a few hours drive you have the beach (excellent surfing) and Pacific Ocean, the Serra Nevada mountain range and many other mountains, huge deserts and all manner of world class entertainment. Temperatures are mild most of the year with a month or two of hot in the summers but low humidity and most nights (even when it's hot) are comfortable and the only snow is in the mountains. The economy is very good and plenty of jobs but housing (buying and renting) is very expensive. Just read that an income of about $80k/year in urban areas here buys roughly what about $50k/year buys in Wisconsin.

Yes I do. It is said that the way to tell when the seasons change is by the color of the leaves. Here in south Florida the license plates change color. ?

No but is better than some places. Its too hot in the summer but other places get hotter.

I live in SW Alabama...do I love it...no...do I like it yes...about 80k people here...not a lot of culture...cost of living is great...plenty of work...
On a separate note, I lived in NM for 6 years...just south of Albuquerque in Belen...sorry I ever moved...Albuquerque and Santa Fe are LOADED with culture with no limit to what you'll find. Great skiing and good roads...traffic is great compared to Chicago.. If you have never been there...highly recommend you check it out...you would be pleasently surprised...NAMASTE

I have a love/hate relationship with where I live. The violent crime rates are extremely high. There are no good jobs nearby. Housing is extremely expensive.

But, there aren't many places in the world like it. I'm an hour from the beach, an hour from the snow, and an hour from both high and low deserts. This location is ideal for the life I lead.

I love living in the pacific northwest,
The weather is mild, and the politics are liberal
