If you could live in any city in the US which one would it be.

[ccharles000]

I know many people may say NYC or LA but try and pick one that most would not think of. I would say Duluth, Minnesota because it snows a lot and it is near Canada(if I wanted to visit).

[MissHoneychurch]

1. Savannah, GA

No question there. It is a beautiful town and it is close to the ocean. And I have very fond memories of my time there *sigh*

[backtoblue]

18. Very beautiful city

The old mansions and the mossy oaks are breathtaking - but so is the humidity. Man does it get steamy in the summer!!! :hi:

[AwakeAtLast]

42. My very first thought.

I spent a summer visiting Augusta when Mr. AAL was at Ft. Gordon, and I enjoyed my time there, too.

[conscious evolution]

45. Savannah is a great place to be from

I grew up there.
Unless you are rich Savannah sucks when it comes to making a living.Business owners collude with each other to keep wages down.

[TheCentepedeShoes]

50. I have been there

only one time
My cousin Bob is an attorney and although he is an Oklahoma native like he has lived in Savannah seems like forever
He used to be on the bench there (elected position)
He knew a lot of people the The Book
We stayed at a beach house on Tybee Island that belonged to the family of a University of South Florida professor who was a friend of ours
Had breakfast at the well, Breakfast Club
Had a really great dinner on Tybee at a B&B the name of which I can't recall
We saw Emma Kelly at Hannah's East (see The Book)
Did not see the Lady Chablis

My cousin Gaylen lives in a house that (part of) dates to the 1400's somewhere near Frankfurt
:hi:

[Initech]

2. Denver

Total party town. I get drunker there than any place I've ever been. :toast:

[kaiden]

10. True that.

[fizzgig]

32. it's probably the altitude

;)

[Maccagirl]

3. Boston or San Francisco

I've been to Beantown and loved it-and my dream vacation is to the Bay area.

[Manifestor_of_Light]

8. My two favorite cities!!

And they are each a different planet from Texas.

[rockymountaindem]

20. I'm already living in Boston

It's 99% great!

[Gormy Cuss]

36. I lived in the former and live in the latter.

My two favorite cities in the country.

Given my druthers though I'd be back in Boston because it still feels like home.

[Art_from_Ark]

4. Hana, Maui, Hawaii

A good place to get away from it all

[krispos42]

5. Brattleboro, Vermont

It's suppose to be nice there. And it's by my parents. As close as I can get without having to live in the insanity that is New York, Massachusettes, or Connecticut.

[Mudoria]

6. Asheville

[Mojambo]

7. Madison, WI

or maybe somewhere in North Dakota.

[Tobin S.]

9. I've been all over the country, charles

And no place feels as good as my home town of Dayton, Ohio. I grew up here and all of my family is here as well as some life-long friends. No place on Earth can beat that.

[RebelOne]

11. Steamboat Springs, Colorado

I was there for a week 10 years ago. The scenery is fantastic. I love the mountains. Also, would like to live somewhere in the Smokies. Fortunately, I live in North Georgia, so it is a short drive to the mountains.

[raccoon]

12. Twin Cities. nt

[Bertha Venation]

13. Huntington Beach, CA. I know, big shocker.

:hi:

[suninvited]

14. Daphne, AL

I am currently applying for jobs there.

Both my children and their families are living there, and I hate only seeing my grandbabies one time a year !

[femmocrat]

15. Not a city, but anywhere along the NC coast.

My dream is a NC beach house.

[suninvited]

16. I used to live in Elizabeth City, NC.

Just minutes from the outer banks. It was beautiful!!

[cloudbase]

17. Port Arthur, TX

Made ya look!

My real choice would be St. Michaels, MD.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

22. St. Michael's is cool!

Have you also seen Solomons in Southern Maryland? It's very similar to St. Michael's.

[cloudbase]

27. I haven't been there.

My union has a training facility in Easton, on the road (33?) to St. Michaels. I've been there a ton of times, and have always enjoyed it. My wife loves it, too.

208 Talbot in your picture is a wonderful restaurant. I love the pizza at Rusticana, too.

[backtoblue]

19. Seattle

I've never been there, but it seems alluring enough.

[arbusto_baboso]

30. I've been there, and I have to agree. Very liveable.

And they are serious about their greenbelts. Lovely place.

[rug]

21. Not Secaucus.

[Rosie1223]

23. I'm moving to Santa Fe when I retire n/t

[abq e streeter]

49. A beautiful, special place---just hope you have either $ or already own property, or both

it ain't cheap...I'm assuming you've been there. If not, it gets colder ( and a lot more snow) than a lot of people think, for its being in the southwest. The altitude is 7000 feet.

[Tuesday Afternoon]

24. another vote for Savannah.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

25. If you're talking larger cities, probably Jacksonville, Florida.

No joke. I love Northeast Florida. Although if you include smaller cities and towns I might say St. Augustine or Deland.

[Phentex]

26. Fargo, ND

It's my dream. I check their weather all the time. I'm thinking of visiting soon.

[Strong Atheist]

28. I don't like

cities...x(

[csziggy]

59. Ditto

[PRETZEL]

29. Couple of years ago while looking for a long weekend vacation

I saw Manchester, NH.

I could live there easily.

[edbermac]

31. Intercourse, Pennsylvania

You know what they say about those Amish people...:7

[mysuzuki2]

39. Climax Michigan

[AwakeAtLast]

43. In the same are as Blue Ball

:D

[fizzgig]

33. portland, orgeon

it's so beautiful there and there is so much to do. it's been three or four years since i've been and i really want to make another trip out there.

[Nicole Lambeth]

34. I second that!

Never been, but dying to visit. It's hippie heaven.

[EastTennesseeDem]

35. Missoula, Montana

[jmowreader]

47. Why Missoula?

I think Kalispell or Libby are nicer than Missoula. And isn't Missoula supposedly on DU's shitlist for some DWB stops?

[EastTennesseeDem]

56. I've been there a few times

Most of my mother's family lives out there. The part of town to which I'm acquainted has amazing aesthetic appeal, and the entire neighborhood is pretty liberal.

Trust me. Given where I reside, I've seen worse.

[Forkboy]

37. Chicago, because I'm already near Boston and I can't pick that.

Any cold city would work for me. The only warm city I'd try living in would be San Fran.

[mnhtnbb]

38. Right where I am, Chapel Hill, NC. I LOVE it here.

[LynneSin]

40. I'm very happy with the city where I live so I pick Wilmington, DE

I'm posting from one of those buildings right now - think about it!

[unpossibles]

41. There are a lot I like. I am actually moving to NYC in a couple of weeks

so that's my answer.

[AwakeAtLast]

44. I replied to the Savannah Ga post, but I would also pick Asheville, NC

Mr. AAL and I have said that we would like to retire there.

[conscious evolution]

46. Atlanta

A blue oasis in a sea of red.
It has its drawbacks but I will take it over any other big city I have lived in.

[Xipe Totec]

48. Parangaricutirimicuaro

is a town in Mexico frozen forever in volcanic lava. The name is commonly used as a tongue twister. It was swallowed up by the lava from the famous Paricutin volcano. This is the volcano that sprouted in a cornfield in Michoacan, Mexico.

Rarely do volcanologists get to watch the birth, growth, and death of a volcano. Paricutin provided such an opportunity. The eruption that created Paricutin began in 1943 and continued to 1952. Most of the explosive activity was during the first year of the eruption when the cone grew to 1,100 feet (336 m). The cone continued to grow for another 8 years but added only another 290 feet (88 m). Effusive activity began on the second day and continued to the end of the eruption. Lava flows covered about 10 square miles (25 square km) and had a volume of about 0.3 cubic miles (1.4 cubic km). The rate of eruption declined steadily until the last 6 months of the eruption when violent explosions were frequent and violent.

PS: The full name of Mexico, the country, is the United States of Mexico.

[Auggie]

51. Money is no object, right?

Laguna Beach, La Jolla or Santa Barbara.

[Sisaruus]

52. Cambridge, MA

53. In the middle of the woods in the Arkansas Ozarks.

My Creek After a Hard Rain


Another View of My Creek

[LadyoftheRabbits]

54. Chicago

Without a doubt.

[Common Sense Party]

55. Have you ever BEEN to Duluth? In the winter?

I wouldn't wish that on anyone.

The two days I spent there one winter felt like two years.

[Tikki]

57. Maybe the hidden World that is tiny Avila Beach....

Cali's Central Coast...

[UrbScotty]

60. Outside of lovely Michigan? Washington or Denver.

If I live in Washington, this will be my home:


Otherwise, close to my aunt near Denver.

[ellisonz]

61. Big Sur, CA or on Kauai

[Richardo]

62. Pittsburgh

:fistbump:

[Bunny]

63. Read this!

http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/09161/976252-53.stm

Pittsburgh ranked tops in U.S. by The Economist

<snip>
Allegheny County Executive Dan Onorato was calling -- no, crowing -- from his cell phone, in full, gleeful, salesman-for-the-region mode, ticking off the number of recent surveys declaring Pittsburgh the nation's most livable city (four or five); the number of front-page New York Times stories about Pittsburgh in the past three months (two) and the value of such publicity to the Pittsburgh area (priceless).

Given that abundance of good publicity, the news that Pittsburgh once again is the most livable city in the United States -- and 29th worldwide -- in a 2009 survey by British magazine The Economist was "great news, but not a surprise," Mr. Onorato said.

"This is now the fourth or fifth independent survey from outside the region talking up the Pittsburgh metro region. You have the stories in The New York Times, the president picks us to host the G-20 summit, now you have this magazine, plus others over the years. It's amazing."

The Economist Intelligence Unit -- which publishes numerous surveys and studies for paying clients -- has ranked Pittsburgh first in U.S. livability ratings since it started measuring them in 2005, said Jon Copestake, editor of the survey.
