Austin, Texas: Single professionals relocating to Central Texas are in luck. According to relocation industry groups, Austin is among the best cities for relocating singles.
Denver, Colorado: Denver residents are energetic, educated and incredibly active -- professionally, recreationally, philanthropically and socially -- all of which make Denver attractive to single individuals looking to meet people.
Boston, Maasachusetts: Extremely huge singles scene and plenty to do day and night.
San Francisco and New York. Both cities are teeming with singles (the Big Apple ranks first; the Hilly City seventh), and there's certainly no shortage of things to do. Bars, restaurants, museums and sporting events -- these major metros have it all.

I miss Texas!!!!
I was born and raised in West Texas but did lots of traveling throughout the state. (I got married and moved away when I was 33. If my husband ever had the opportunity to transfer there, I'd move in a heartbeat.)
Austin, D-FW, and San Antonio are all great places to live. (Because I love music and culture, Austin and SA would be my top picks.)
1. Texas has no state income tax.
2. Great schools and universities; if you ever need to pursue a master's or get married and have children.
3. Cost of living is not outrageous like CA or NY.
4. You still get the benefit of four seasons; not as bitterly cold as Indiana, though.
5. Crime rates not too bad... Avoid Houston!

If you like warm weather all year long, I live in Chandler, AZ, and love it as well. (Husband transferred here 2 years ago; glad we moved. We were in Albuquerque before that.)
1. Part of the Phoenix metro area... lots of nightclubs, shopping, cultural events, major sporting events.
2. DAMN hot in summer but the other 9 months of the year are sweeeeet! (I prefer the heat to the severe storms in TX but you're used that in Indiana.)
3. Now would be the time to move as our housing market is cooliing off and housing prices are expected to go even lower over the next 6 months.
4. The schools and universities are great; I teach for the Chandler school district. Many of my colleagues went to ASU. Plan on getting my master's there.
5. Jobs, jobs, and more jobs.
(Scottsdale, also part of the Phoenix metro, is on that best places to live list as well.)
Hope to see you out here soon!

like you i am from indiana. i lived in gary, indianapolis and went to school in muncie for 4 years. i would highly recommend texas, either houston or dallas. i have lived in both places and absolutely adored them both. now i live right outside of dallas. if you are more of a party girl then i would go with houston. if you want to focus more on your career and business, then dallas is the place. they both have both ends but just one more than the other, that's just been my experience. the weather is warm year round and no more snow blizzards!!!!!! the winterish weather usually falls between november and february, where in indiana it feels like october through march. in dallas you 'll get an occasional snow fall, but it mostly melts before it hits the ground. it hardly snows in houston, but the flooding can be a problem. i made a great decision moving to texas. no more indiana for me. i love it here!!!!

I know you said reasons to go somewhere but how about reasons not to. Don't come to Maryland as the weather is crazy(cold and icy not good snow or hot and humid yuck). It is expensive and its only getting worse. We have Baltimore city need I say more...
