I'm not gonna pick a best answer for this question, that's not fair. So happy voting!

Not a fair question to ask...you know that.
I will share this though . . . California.
' Best ' place...reason being . . .
No snow, yet (in some places) close enough to get to in a day to play in.
Much Sun
Rain...normal rainfall...not too much to cause frustration.
Nice weather, no humidity.
Very, very minimal flooding.
Hurricanes, tornado's...really non-existent.
Creative, open minds (Others label as "crazy Californians ")
Oceans, beautiful beaches
Great music
The arts
Golden Gate bridge, Hollywood, Gold Country roots . . .
Yes...earthquakes . . . but FEW and FAR between.
Generally the few earthquakes that are felt likened to a person shaking a dining table.
Cool people
Odd people
Wonderfully cool, odd, eclectic, creative people.
It's California (smiles).
Actually . . . never mind all of what I just wrote . . . it's not so great . . . You don't want to live her. Stay where you're currently living.

My first choice would be San Francisco...however, it is cheaper for me to visit it yearly than live there. Same with Ventura and LaJolla, Hawaii, NYC, Boston or anywhere else consider "the best." I'd settle for living as close as possible to a good employer where my time and money is not taken up with transportation and sucking the life out of me. Just ask anyone who has a two hour commute each way and forced to buy a new car about the time the last payment comes due. Many people do just that on a daily basis and it is no way to live.

My vote goes to NY. I grew up on Long Island and I loved having the beach down the block, and the availability of public transportation anywhere I wanted to go, the diversity of the people, the closeness to the city and the museums and not much further away all the woodlands you could ever want. The only downside is the price to live there, which sadly I could no longer afford.

Don't live there... but from my travels... I really love places with nice sceneries (especially by the sea) like California, Florida, New Jersey. I also like Tennessee, Minnesota, New Mexico (despite of the hot weather, the hurricanes/tornado alley, and possibly earthquakes in California, etc. I'm suprised people still like to live there).

It depends on what you're looking for. Job? Community? Lots of factors involved.

I think Florida, just because it's gorgeous, but you do get the occasional hurricane, which can bring some people down...
