Wheres the best place to go in America at Christmas? I was thinking about Los Angeles but its a bit too expensive, Las Vegas is cheaper but im under 21 so it wouldnt be as much fun for me.

Any suggestions?

I love Chicago at Christmas, as long as there's a little snow.

It depends on what you are looking for... If you want the best BIG city, New York City at Christmas has to be the best. If you want to see the winter sports, go to Aspen Colorado, but if you want reasonably warm weather, a lot of entertainment and places to see, with a low cost, then consider San Antonio, Texas. San Antonio is ver lovely at Christmas, there is a narrow canal they call the river that runs through the down town area, and they have an area called the "Paseo del Rio" or Riverwalk. It is all restaurants and clubs (some of which admit under 21, but won't serve alcohol) and they hang lights over the river from all the trees and the reflection off the water is lovely. You can spend the week in San Antonio of probably less than 1/2 the cost of New York, San Antonio is the 7th largest city in the US. Also close by is the Texas Hill Country wine country, Austin (another wonderful city) is about an hour and a half north and the beach is less than 3 hours south east. The afternoon weather is in the 60s and 70s and they have Sea World and a Six Flags amusement park in the city. Also the food in the city can't be beat, and there is world class shopping around the city.

Check out St. Augustine FL. The oldest city in the US. There are tons of things to do there for all ages. Go to the Castillo De San Marco or Fort Mantanza both are really cool and cheap. Take a trolley ride around the city, explore old town and walk on St. George Street. Go to the first Ripley’s Believe It Or Not, check out the Old Jail, take a dolphin cruise, hit up the beach, take surfing lessons from the Pitt. There is just so much to do here I could go on and on but at Christmas it really is beautiful. They light up the whole city in white lights and they have tons of special events around the holidays. For a great place to stay check out the Pirate Haus on Treasury Street, in the heart of downtown and within walking distance to almost everything. Wonderful hostel and a great way to meet people they have private rooms for like $69 a night or rent a bed in the dorm and meet some new people. They run about $20 a night. The owners and staff are great, they speak MANY languages between all of them, and well they really know what there is to do and can help you on any budget. The whole place is pirate themed they have a really nice kitchen and deck to relax on. No matter what age you are you can find something for everyone here! Good luck have a great trip. Oh and trust me Las Vegas is not fun when you are under 21 got stuck there 2 days before my 21st b-day and it sucked. The shows are so expensive and even the roller coasters cost like $8 for a minute of fun. Too Expensive!

Los Angeles is boring as hell. It is just 5 lanes of constant traffic and is full of people who need their beauty sleep to go to an audition the next day.
Imagine how much fun the clubs are.
There are no sights to see there as such and you need a car to get ANYWHERE which means you get stuck in traffic.
You are right that as an under 21, Las Vegas will be a little out of bounds.
I would suggest Miami as an alternative. It is smaller and more manageable and people there are fun.
You could also take a trip to the "keys" which are stunning islands to the South of Miami and definitely worth a visit.

Welcome to united statesa.. We rejoice many approaches and in certainty you may rejoice only as you probably did on your place usa. maximum folk will submit decorations (lighting fixtures, wood, stockings and so on) besides as pay attention to Christmas music, and of direction purchase presents for buddies and kinfolk. Others spend their time helping much less fortunate and going to church communities and making a music carols door to door. My suggestion come across a number of your buddies you made right here and ask them if any may assist you alongside this holiday as you're some distance from homestead. satisfied holidays!

San Francisco is fun or Florida if you want a warmer climate. Vermont or Colorado for skiing.

If you want to go somewhere that snows, go to Colorado (Denver, CO or any major city in Colorado), and if you want somewhere that is still pretty warm at summertime, go to Miami (great weather) Houston (best food-they have everything and great shopping).
