So it looks like I'm moving... (but where?)

[reynolds80]

Do any of you guys know of, have visited, or live nearby a place that you think would be nice to live? A place where you just said, hmm it would be really awesome to live there.

I have pretty much full flexibility here.

Thoughts/ opinions?

I heard Texas sucks, so I wouldn't go there...

Boulder, Colorado seems like a great place to live, I go down there every summer to see some family members. It's great, right beside the mountains, and only 40 minutes out of Denver.

Ok, Texas is out. 49 left!

(But really I was going to steer clear of Texas anyway)

And of course, you could always move to Canada.

What are you looking for? Expensive real estate, hunting, college women who need help with their homework, theater, particle accelerators?

I like that one a lot. It would seem that area would have the perfect mix of nice mountains, skiing, college atmosphere blended with big city MLB town (Denver), I would think a low crime rate, hmm I will put central Colorado near the top of my early list...

I lived near SF when I was in the service, and loved it. Coolest city I've ever been in. But it's really expensive to live there. The other part of California I loved when I was out there was San Diego.

I lived in Norfolk, Virg., for six months. Also a nice place. Virginia Beach is cool.

Been in Massachusetts ever since I got out of the service (also grew up here). All of New England is nice. I like the New Hampshire seacoast and southern coastal Maine too.

High priorites would be a mid-sized city, close enough to drive to a couple MLB games a week, low crime, something different, a change of scenery from the deep south.

Beaches, mountains, all that sounds cool right off the top of my head. I'm not a big hunter. Or golfer. But I like the outdoors. Yet I really wouldn't want to live in the country.

If you can handle the cold, I really love New England. Been to a bunch of MLB cities and the only place I would really think about moving to was Baltimore or Chicago.

Seattle was a pretty nice area too but I think I'd want to live on the East Coast or Midwest.

But yeah, New England is really nice. I live in Newburyport and it's on the beach yet not too far from ski places. Also it's only a 45 minute drive to Boston. (Although it's tough to get tickets)
