Do you like the state you live in..? if not where would you prefer to live?

Question

I live in california... I love it, becacuse it's what I know, my family is here, we have decent weather, great city, but the cost of living is very high... and I would love to live closer to the beach.... If I could move my whole "world" with me, I think I would go to Florida

Answer 1

I've lived most of my life here in Alabama, and there really is
something to the phrase sweet home Alabama . . . everyone I've known from here always seems to want to come back.

It's not all the country living stereotype you hear about, but there is a lot of pride in our country roots that lends to good cooking, great music, and real people. We also have a lot of pride in our sports and schools. It's not a really glamourous state, but still very pretty, and homey-feeling. It's a great state to raise kids.

Prepare to have somebody ask you where you go to church, and if you say you don't have one, they're gonna invite you to theirs!

I live close to Birmingham and it's a city that's big enough to offer opportunity, but small enough to feel comfortable. You can always find something to do in Birmingham.
I think like most places you've got a melting pot here--really rich neighbohoods to really poor ones. . . yuppie, casual, intellectual, country, redneck, ghetto, hippie, mexican, asian, arabic . . . all types of lifestyles going on.

We've got all the seasons here in Alabama but a lot of humidity. You can drive to the beach in Gulf Shores, AL or to Cheaha mountain to go hiking as a day trip. There are a lot of lakes and hills in Alabama to offer good scenery.

Sometimes, though, everything seems like it's so familiar that I long to see something different from our norm, like the glamour of California, the wide-open skies of the northwest, or the island lifestyle of Hawaii.

Thanks so much for asking, I wish I could trade locales with you for a week-I've never been to California!

Answer 2

I live in California, and it's alright. I would rather live in Los Angeles. And it's too expensive here, but I don't have enough family members. Most are in Brazil.

The state I would prefer to live is Massachusettes. I love the New England area, and Boston just seems so cool.

I've been to Florida, and it was very beautiful and hot. But that's my second choice.

Answer 3

I do like the state of IL, where I live. But being in the norther half has its disadvantages. It feels like when spring arrives, winter hangs around here just a bit longer than maybe the middle to southern part of the state. Plus, being closer to Lake Michigan makes for some nasty lake effect snow at times. I like it in the summer, but not so much the winter. I think I would want to live just a bit more south in IL.

Answer 4

I even have lived in 2 states and visited a number of states. I enjoyed residing in Ca. besides the shown fact that the place i grew to become into there grew to become into no snow. I stay in Wi and there is to lots snow! I stayed in Colorado for a month alluring & I visited my brother in Ga. for a week awsome climate in March, yet not so stable in summer season. Texas to darn warm! So i assume i've got not been to the state i could want to stay in. enable me do extra traveling and that i will enable ya understand. :) Colorado is finding distinctly stable.

Answer 5

Moved to South Carolina 2 years ago from Colorado. I want to go back to Colorado or 2nd choice Florida. Don't like Charleston( too expensive to live here & FAR TOO much crime for an area this size).

Answer 6

I don't really like the place I'm at now, and if I got to move ne where else I'd say just not to an expensive, costly place. Just a decent nice town or city, but not 2 big.

Answer 7

I live in LA.. It's great but sometimes I feel like I'm getting too stressed out every single day and don't really understand what I'm getting out of life. I wish I could live in Netherlands...Life is SO peaceful over there. I lived there for about 4 years and I would do anything to go back. Just the environment itself is a lot calmer and you feel so relaxed everyday. You don't have to deal with so much chaos. It's great.. :)

Answer 8

I live in Iowa but if i had a choice I'd live in 2 states 1 summer 1 winter Montana winter Alaska summer

Answer 9

I live in Wisconsin, and it gets cold, but there is a lot more to the state then the cold weather and its dairy, but if i could live anywhere i would move to Washington i just love Seattle

Answer 10

I live in Florida... I don't like it because it's too hot for me and I miss my winter sports. Given the choice, I'd like to live in the Northeast (Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Connecticut).
