Best city to move to....

[onetrickpony]

Are you in Macon Ga?? Hell no, too many Bulldog and Auburn fans for me....that's another reason we're leaving here now too!

go dawgs fuk auburn

[goldstein077]

Atlanta is not too bad too if you move to certain parts of it that are really nice. Been to Denver a few times and you definately couldnt go wrong with that. It's a beatiful city overall.

Just over an hour or so away from Atl now over the Bama border....although I'll miss my Braves games....ready to jet outta here. But if we were going to stay...Peachtree City would be the spot to settle

District Of Columbia







Or you could move 5 minutes away from the city into PG where Ive been for the past 10+ years... where we had 19 murders within the first 20 days of 2011. All 19 murders took place in PG County.

Yeah if for some reason we decided on that region....would be in VA for sure...but don't see it happening....D.C. is fun to visit...I'll be there in November.....but can't fathom a move.

[LostBankroll]

SWAG! I thought it wouldnt get worse than DC. I was wrong when I crossed county lines 5 mins into PG.

[LostBankroll]

I dont think DC is fun to visit. Just keep your white ass NW. shit NE is scary nowadays too. Basically sont come any farther down Nats Stadium. Anything after that is suicide for a white male to go down SE/SW

I moved to Vancouver , Washington last June from a small town in Mississippi.. Only 15 minutes from Portland , OR , and about 3 hours from Seattle , accessible via Car , Train or a short flight.

TONS of hiking/camping options through here and the Summers are wonderful.. About four months of sunshine.. The rain isnt as bad as everyone makes it sound.. Since November , its probably rained 3/4 of the days , but its not like torrential downpours.. Hell , put on a jacket and a hat and you wont even know its raining..

Its great for raising kids here , There is a park everywhere you turn it seems like and behind that is a different school. Like any town , there are some bad parts and especially closer to the downtown area , but if you live in a suburb a few miles away , you wont have any troubles with that..

You obviously have the big city of Seattle with sports there , but you also have the Trailblazers in portland and a semi pro hockey team(winterhawks.) They are also looking at moving a single A(padres) team to the local community college in the next two years. Then its only a 3 hour drive down the Eugene to watch the Ducks.

Where in Miss? When you say small, be specific....guarantee I know it ....like when someone's from Verona they say "tupelo" or from Brandon, it's "jackson"

True. I always stay with a buddy that works at the State Dept....lives close to the Pentagon and his apartment's straight across from the transit....some good bars there too. I took some classes at George Mason years ago so we go out there and all around Georgetown.

Hattiesburg!

I know where ya were. My parents retired and moved to Magee about 40 minutes north of there a few years go.

[Awilliamson19]

Haha , I have a TON of friends in the Magee area.. Spent alot of time around there.. Yeah , Hattiesburg is what I tell everyone , but then I usually have to explain taht its between Biloxi and jackson. Most everyone knows Bilox and Gulfport best of the casinos down in that area!

also lived in peachtree city for 3 years. look to newnan and summergrove. cheaper houses and only 4 miles from peachtree city

Yeah I totally get the explanations for towns in 'the Sip I went to high school in N Miss. so everything was "Tupelo". Been to Biloxi several times...mostly hit Tunica by Memphis though...and if I just HAVE to play cards while visiting Magee...would drive over to Vicksburg at their little setups.

Not much to do in Magee/Mendenhall is it better off just having your friends meet you on Hardy St in the Hub city.

go dawgs fuk auburn

I went to UA and have to live within smelling distance of Auburn now...can't leave fast enough for my taste. Especially now that they threw up those Cam Newton signs and all around Auburn/Opelika

[Awilliamson19]

Haha , guy knows his Mississippi facts! Yeah man , Magee/Mendenhall is borrrrinnnggg! haha .. Drive around and throw beer bottles at signs.. We would always hit up the bars in Hattiesburg , or head down to Biloxi and drink at the casinos and shit..

Did you get the beer from that Beer Barn drive through on 49...across from the Wal Mart See I know waayy too much about that little place.

Hattiesburg I know well too....many drunken nights around USM campus...that little Irish hole in the wall past the hospital is you're heading out towards Camp Shelby area......or Ropers bar for some country scene

Where is Bryn Mawr?

A lot of people are saying Canada

A lot of people are saying Canada

Maybe they know something we don't. But that's why I threw this thread in this morning....get some fresh ideas....been racking our brains over it for weeks.

[deltgen]

Go international, and move right around Vatican City. If you're ever homeless, I can't imagine anyplace on earth that would have more charitable donations.

[lifemagnetic]

Vancouver, Montreal or Manhattan. Seattle and San Fran, Boston are close 2nds.

Vancouver, Montreal or Manhattan. Seattle and San Fran, Boston are close 2nds.

Nothing against those cities....but like I mentioned, I have to be practical, more of a family move to relax and spend time with the kids as they grow (assuming the 2nd one comes along soon)......can't necessarily afford to spend $2900 a month in Boston for 800 sq ft with a wife and kids right? Well, and still have the free time and all.

Suburbs or piece of land less than 10 acres within easy commute to the city and other things within the $250-$450k budget to buy.....can't get that in Manhattan nor Boston unfortunately.

[Dutch]

Madison, Wi. and the towns around it are pretty nice. Close enough to Milwaukee and Chicago to get your sports fix.

[Inkwell77]

Move to Portland, Oregon or Canada.
I'm sure there are some good spots in the Northeast and Midwest that are pretty sweet. Any town with less than 200,000 people is probably alright.
Don't move to a huge city filled with hate and violence. Seriously, the future generations in these huge cities are screwed! The kids don't stand a chance.

Did not think of Madison....flew under the radar.

Know anything about Minnesota while I'm thinking about it?? Soon as I read Wisconsin my brain said Packers games and Brett Fa......ohhhh he's moved one to Minny AND again but still Vikings/T-Wolves and Twinkies games

Yessir I got the eye roll from my wife when I look away from the laptop and said that to her in that order after "hey why didn't we write down Madison Wisconsin, the have..... "

Itchy - I like this thread and I liked your original list of Tampa/Orlando, Dallas Denver. Here are some of my suggestions along the same lines...

Atlanta: Isn't that your home city? When you factor in price/what you get It has to be way up there, I wonder why you'd want out, seems like the suburbs of ATL seem like a great place to settle down when you factor in the jobs/cost of living etc.

Phoenix Arizona: Same deal as Atlanta. When you factor in the jobs/cost of living/sun etc. you get a great standard of living there.

Austin Texas: Low cost of living, cool city from what I've heard.

Charlotte North Carolina - Live in the suburbs in SC and you'll lower your tax bill. Charlotte has jobs, and has some similarities of a "real" city, and sports teams but it's a smaller big city.

It sounds like you don't want the huge big cities but Chicago and San Diego are cool if you're willing to spend the money and live in a smaller place.

[flyingillini]

Hancock/miracle mile, Los Angeles..... Great homes, schools, a lot of Jews.

My sureno!

[marcoloco]

san diego is nice. lived there a few years

[CanuckG]

Suburb of Vancouver....Chilliwack or something...cheap real estate...VERY FRIENDLY, great schools....45 mins away from downtown Vancouver....beautiful of mountains....very clean....crime rate is lower out there in the burbs

[opie1988]

There's no question about it......Dallas is your only choice here.

Texas is far and away the strongest state in the US, economy-wise. Our housing market has stayed strong, job market is good, and no state income tax. Fantastic suburbs all around Dallas. Greatest food in the country.

Sports are huge in Texas, especially Dallas. High School football is bigger than anywhere in the US. Rangers have a wonderful ballpark, and future with this team is beyond bright. Mavs are a juggernaut (including this year!), and the Stars are a top 5 franchise over the past 15 years, including a Stanley Cup in '99.

We are also home to America's Team.

Welcome to Big D. Enjoy.
