We're thinkin of moving out of FL, where is the best place for snowy winters,Mt.,water and big city views?

Question

Raising 2 children, so want a family friendly place, but I want a view of City lights at night, a lake or river or ocean plus a mountain or two of all these from my house. I'd luv a year round temp of 70. I love being close to a big city, convienence is very important, as well as many opportunities for the children, ie. zoo, museum, extra curricular, anything they may have an interest in, I want it available. Cinncinnatti would be good if it werent for all the race riots. Any sugg?

Answer 1

Denver Colorado. Gets got in the mid 70s in summer, and of course they get lot's of snow in winter, and they have a beautiful skyline.

I would also reccomend Pittsburgh, PA. It's a beautiful city and is surrounded by large hills and valleys. It's at the foot of the appalachians. A very hilly area, and most of the houses are on hills and have views of the city. They get lot's of snow in winter, and very warm summers. Picture: http://home.att.net/~bevbruce/southsidehills5.jpg

There is always Toronto, Canada. Huge skyline, 5th largest city in North America, but it may be a hassle immigrating into Canada and take a long time to do so. I visited once and there is an island on the lake called Toronto island (accordingly), and has homes on it which are affordable, and have views of the skyline. Nice city, I actually considered moving there once, but I think I'll stick to Virginia for now. I'm more for warm weather all year round.



Other cities:

Cleveland, Ohio (they get TONS of lake effect snow)

Boulder, Colorado (outside of Denver, no skyline, but a nice town)

Buffalo, New York (has a nice skyline, and is a struggling city so a 4 bdrm house, is easily affordable to most people)

Detroit, Michigan (only if your desperate)

Answer 2

Hi as someone who has grown up in Miami there whole life basically, it is never cool down there and it is always hot and humid. There are no mountains just little hills in backyards. If you live near the ocean remember hurricanes and also if you live near lakes or canals there are always bugs. The coolest it get down in Miami is maybe 60 at times and once in a while down in the 50s. Miami is not a good place to raise children. Try Orlando or a little northern.

Answer 3

Snowy winters , plus 70 degrees? Hmmm, For snow MTs, big city views, try the Denver foothills.

Answer 4

the only way Hell could make experience in case you have faith in a solid God is that this is something you do to your self. I see it as what happens in case you have eternal existence and consciously reject God. You attain a state the place you're completely unhappy and would't see any way out of that physique of innovations when you consider which you recognize you're on my own in a metaphysical experience. this is like being mad. this is not a place yet an inescapable physique of innovations. Heaven, in assessment, is a state of superb eternal bliss. It should be superb because of the fact eternal existence is incomprehensible and empty, and the rational reaction to that's torment. Absence of the opportunity of death makes never-ending existence pointless, depressing and dull, and in basic terms a miracle would desire to rescue you from that realisation. when you consider that they are states of innovations and strategies of being, the two Heaven and Hell are endless. even though, evaluate this. the only way wherein God could be solid is that if Hell isn't a punishment God visits on people yet something they do to themselves, yet a solid God does not create immortal beings with the flaw of entering that state, even by way of their own will. for this reason, the two God isn't solid, God does not exist or conditional immortality is the case. people who're saved are annihilated at death, however the damned have eternal existence. in any different case, the Universe won't be able to be only.

Answer 5

Pueblo, CO. It was 85 yesterday. Pikes Peak is 50 miles away (but very visible). It is on the Arkansas River and has Lake Pueblo.

Answer 6

Denver, CO - No question about it. 300 days of sunshine per year, snow that comes and quickly goes (unless of course you are in the mountains), access to all kinds of activities, and a very modern and beautiful area to live.

I don't live there yet ~ but will be heading there soon, I hope.

Answer 7

So do you want snowy winters or year round 70 degree weather? I don't think there's any place you can have both.

Answer 8

that easy, Denver or Salt Lake City

Answer 9

Denver, CO
