United States - June 2006

My husband and I grew up near San Diego. We moved to Denver about a year ago, but I have had some health problems here and it looks like we'll be moving again. My husband is a software developer so we need a place with a good job market for that. He only has about a 5 minute commute right now so we are hoping he won't have a long commute. We would like a place with reasonable housing (definitely under 350k) and a safe neighborhood. We like suburbs better than the city. We really like snow and don't want a place that gets really hot in the summer. I would like to have malls, outlets, etc. nearby. Below is a list of places we're considering (if you have other you think we should include, please share that too), which would be the best place to live and why? Also can you recommend areas in these cities?

Seattle
Chicago
New Hampshire (maybe commute to Boston for work?)
Conneticut
Pennsylvania (either near Philadelphia or Harrisburg)
New Jersey
Minneapolis
Ann Arbor, MI
Raleigh

I can't wait until October because my boyfriend is coming back from Wisconsin to take me down to Daytona Beach, Florida. The only part that I'm not going to like is the 20+ hour ride down there on the back of his motorcycle. Is anyone else going??

I need to store a suitcase for a day (while I'm sightseeing) in either Newark Penn Station or NY Penn Station. Does anyone know if there are lockers at either train station?

We are travelling to Myrtle Beach in July from Ontario, Canada. A friend of mine, told me that Canadians arn't very respected in Myrtle Beach and other parts of the United States because alot of Americans think most Canadians are anti - American.

I visit the United States alot, and I love it there! I even have a Canadian flag and American flag at my house. Im wondering though, if Americans (such as yourself if you are American) are not fond of Canadians very much, or not fond of Canadian visiting the United States?

I will be spending a few nights in the area and I don't want to rent a car because we're drinking, they're expensive and we don't know the area. I don't think the buses or will run as late as we plan to be out. And taxi's look like they are going to be really expensive. Are there any other options for late night travel from downtown LA or Hollywood etc?

If you live in a town that is a popular tourist destination, what, if anything, irritates you when tourist season begins? I live in Williamsburg, VA and for me it's the drivers who obviously don't know where they are going and either drive 10 miles under the speed limit or cut off three lanes of traffic to turn into the outlet malls!

I'm thinking of moving there and attending N.Y.U, but some of my friends and family members are trying to discourage me from making my big move to N.Y.C. They seem to think it is "dangerous". I've been to N.Y 3 times in my life and I personally think its fine.

I find that there are cars in Phoenix that would just pull up in front of me and offer me a ride. They also often stop to offer me rides. Do you know why they do that and should you ever accept a ride from them?? Also, is the gang activity really bad here and unsafe to live here and what are the good and bad areas to look out for??

Thanks.
