Best Place In America To Live?

Question

I'd like to move to America, where would be the best place for me to live?
My criteria are:
1) Not too violent
2) Not too expensive
3) Not full of crazy redneck racist homophobes
4) Near some nice places for cheap camping ie. forest/National parks/quiet beaches
5) Easy access to theatre, foreign films, live music, art galleries, concerts, music festivals etc
6) Warmer climate, let's say at least south of New York, preferably closer to Louisiana/Florida/San Diego
7) Somewhere you could keep a couple of large dogs, so either big houses or large gardens/properties with cheap rent
or if there is a place that has trailer parks that aren't complete sh*tholes and allow dogs that would be okay
8) Prefer plenty of clean parks
9) Good public transport
10) Easy to get work
11) Places to buy organic produce

Also with clubs and places to go out for under 21's

Can you be as specific as possible please, finding an actual town or city and then an area within that city is the hardest part

Answer 1

I've been around the U.S.A and I've fallen in love with Tampa, Fla.Cause They have cheap rooms that look expensive.Every where on earth have some type of harm full people around. But I've notice that, at last their is a place where people help other people! Tampa is near malls, the beach and theirs a full road of rad nightclubs.It does not matter what u wear, who Ur not, our what u like their. U can party any day or time that fits ur needs. Tampa is in the center of Fla. Orlando has(sea world, bush gardens and lots of water parks) and Tampa is maybe 2 hours away. Tampa it self have all kinds of theme parks. Mia. Fla. is about 4 hours away. AND we all know what happen their!!!!!!!!!!! Tampa's nice and toasty during the summer, and chilly during the winter so we get the best of both worlds. with out the damn snow!!!!!!!!!

Answer 2

Well, I would definitely recommend North or South Cali if only for the great weather. If you go up north a bit, you can get your forests, and if you want art/concerts/music/film, then San Francisco or Los Angeles would be very good. I don't know how easy it'd be to get to work if you lived in the city, though, so I suggest just near them so that you can go whenever you want.

Answer 3

Well there is always southern califronia, it has the weather and if your in the right place there is not much crime. But it is very expensive and i'm not sure how your commute would be.

You could look into atlanta, its supposed to be cheap, it has warm weather most of the year, its a growing city, and you are pretty close to the mountains for the national parks you talked about.

Good luck.

Answer 4

Los Angeles

Answer 5

It might be a bit cooler than you would like but Seattle seems like a perfect place for you otherwise. (Its WAY warmer and more temperate than the east coast, that's for sure.....)

Same climate, but even less violence, better nature, parks and camping, very best Chinese, Asian, Indian cuisine in the Americas, almost NO rednecks, good beaches (summer ONLY,) would be just an hour north of Seattle, Vancouver Canada.

(If that's too cold, then I'd look at Northern California.)

Answer 6

Tennessee

Answer 7

Everything on that list you name is Pittsburgh, PA in detail except for the warm climate but rest this sounds like your city.

Answer 8

Sunnyvale, California.

Answer 9

Definitely Southern or Eastern Cali!!

Answer 10

Based on those criteria, may I suggest Portland, Oregon?
