You'll probably get 50 different answers for this question but here are a few thoughts.
If nice weather is a priority, live in Hawaii.
If low taxes are important, live in Delaware, Texas, Florida or South Carolina.
If beautiful scenery is a benefit, live in Colorado, Oregon, California, Idaho, Wyoming, Utah or Montana.
If friendly neighbors mean a lot to you, live in North Dakota.
If you enjoy history, culture, fashion and politics, live in New York, Virginia, Maryland, Illinois or New Jersey.
If you want the government to pay you for living there, live in Alaska. (Yes, residents of Alaska get an annual payment of around $1,000 just for living there.)
Me, I prefer Virginia.

Great American towns
Americans are flocking to places that offer big-city opportunity and amenities - with a lot more green space and a lot less stress.

So for this year's installment of Best Places to Live, we set out to find small livable cities that had the best possible blend of good jobs, low crime, quality schools, plenty of open space, rational home prices and lots to do.
The following gives a closer look at our top 10 Best Places to Live. Many of our picks started as small towns on the edge of metropolitan areas and blossomed into destinations in their own right, like No. 1, Fort Collins, Colo. Founded as a military outpost 60 miles north of Denver in 1864, the city is now home to 128,000 people, a thriving tech industry and the main campus of Colorado State University.

There are pluses and minuses for most states--I have visited the majority; best overall as far as climate, overall beauty is Hawaii, but downfalls are it is pricey, and expensive even to go from island to island, much less travel to the mainland. New Mexico or Colorado would be high on my list also.
By the way, for the one who answered Boston, it is not a state. Been there, worst traffic in the USA, worse than NYC or DC or Miami. Like the other big east coast cities, also rather dirty.

Well of course Louisiana is the best place to live. Not the southern part but the northern part. Mild winters, hot summers and lots of pine and oak trees. Oh yeah, copperheads, mocs and rattlesnakes too. I hardly ever see them even though I live deep in the country. Very hospitable state. Downside-Politics are the worst in the country.
I would like to try living were there are cold winters with snow if I didnt freeze to death. Coloroda, Wisconsin, Alaska or any state with major mountains.
