Where would you live (Page 3)

After our next move, we're looking at:

Boston area

Portland/Seattle

Denver area

Scotland

Shanghai

If could move anywhere, no problem:

add Monoco and Saint-Tropez

If we're being practical then Charleston, SC or Savannah, GA. If were not being practical, Rio De Jeneiro.

It's all about the ocean for me.

Anywhere but FL.  Seriously, lived in this state for a long time.  I'm on the verge of hating it.

My short list:

Boulder, CO

Ft Collins, CO

Salt Lake City, CO

Asheville, NC

OK you guys are NOT helping.  Have been day dreaming about selling my company and moving to the greater Boulder area for a year or so now.  It's funny to see Colorado is a reoccurring theme in a good majority of these posts. 

You are NOT making things easier

I'd move back to Asheville.

I should add that Scottsdale isn't so bad either but I still miss trees and water.

I know... SLC is SO much like the Front Range, you almost feel like you're in Colorado... minus the pricey house notes, traffic, and long commutes to the ski resorts.  Though sometimes I think the better beer might be worth it... nah, that's what trips to Grand Junction are for
FYI... last spring I looked at what I could afford if I sold my house in SLC and moved to the Front Range.  I would be going from a 4bd 2 3/4 bath to a 2bd 2bath OLD home on concrete slab in middle of no-where (might as well move to Ft Lupton )  Of course now I'm looking at a job in El Jebel (we might end up living in a trailer park in Carbondale!  brrr!!!)

Oops I just noticed I typed Salt Lake City, CO... duh...

It's just beautiful out there.  I think the issue I'm having with FL is that there is nothing on the horizon.  Just miles and miles of flat.  I like looking at something in the distance.

How could you NOT love this...

I really should stop.  We have enough population growth as it is.  But I can't help it.  Although I did not dig an 88 degree late September run yesterday afternoon.  Can we please get fall already?

Stop complaining..

+1 on quit complaining :D .  Tomorrow, it's supposed to be 96 here.  First real, full day of fall?  It was 98. 

I can't wait for it to start raining again - we did have a sprinkle last weekend for the first time since April...

I don't live in Florida or California for a reason.  All I want is seasonal weather. 

I lived in Spain for 23 years, move to the States 11 years ago. I lived in Maryland, Delaware, and in New Mexico so far, if I have to pick up a place I will go with Annapolis, Maryland, I just love that place.

Nice to see the hometown get a couple shout outs (SLC, UT)

But my wife and I are trying to find a job or a way to move to St George, UT. Just big enough of a city that you don't feel like you're in boonyville USA, and great climate with hot summers and mild winters, though not as extreme as Vegas or Phoenix. And it has an IM race already and a killer marathon too.

And it's breathtaking:

Missoula, MT   Home Sweet Home

Just watch out for bears at the airport. They are the only ones trying to leave. http://missoulian.com/news/local/article_1a490c72-ea15-11e0-a71c-001cc4c002e0.html

I have lived most of my life in Minneapolis Minnesota and it is a great place! 

I have also lived in:

- Grand Forks ND

-a couple of months in Texas here and there

-Spokane WA

-Okinawa Japan. 

My short list of future homes would be

-Vancouver, BC

-Seattle, WA

-Portland, OR

-CO Springs, CO

However, as much as I enjoy the US I really like not being in the US... so that is actually probably what I will do next.
