#2 Big Bear / Lake Arrowhead. Mountain living in SoCal is so nice. There's a bit of a meth problem but I'm from KC so I'm used to that element.

#3 Pasadena. Okay it's pretty much LA but doesn't feel like it.

#4 Solvang / Buelton / Santa Ynez. Wine country speaks for itself. Watch Sideways.

#5 Cambria / Paso Robles / San Luis Obispo. Small town living without the screaming racism and MAGA hats? Awesome.

#6 Palm Springs. Desert and hot as hell but I like that. Imagina Marilyn Monroe laying by the pool in a mid-century house with big white sunglasses on.

#7 Pacific Grove / Monterey A+ schools and family atmosphere.


You mentioned a couple that I really like. My wife and I have passed through both Cambria and Palm Desert/Springs, and really liked them both.

Unless money was no object, I doubt there's anywhere that would be significantly better at this point in life.

In the US, I'd definitely stay in the Mountain or Pacific time zone.

Outside of the US, not sure... Germany has always sounded cool, but haven't ever visited to really have an idea if I'd want to live there. Don't think I'd have much of an issue living in another country.

****. Not sure where you are, but right now I'd take DSM or anywhere in eastern IA over Omaha.

I would love to live in Iceland.

It's beautiful but it's CRAZY expensive.

Like 100 dollars for a "cheap" meal. Booze is off the charts. Everything has to be imported.

At some point you just have to start looking. Take a week and go where you want and see if you can make something happen. Good to see you.

Florida or Texas. I don't think I would ever want to leave the good ole USA. Sure, we have our problems, but no other country can compare. Although I'll admit that some of the suggestions of tropical islands are intriguing.

I grew up in Des Moines, lived in Virginia in college, and live in Atlanta now. Planning to move up to the PNW (probably Whidbey Island) in the next couple of years.

I think Austin, TX would be cool here in the US. Wipe out tax burdens and Santa Cruz CA looks pretty sweet too.

I looked into migrating to Vancouver BC, what a PITA. If I moved overseas I'd want somewhere beautiful, with a more laid back way of life. We're going to travel all over Asia in the next few years, could see a lot of the spots we're looking at being a great place to spend a lot of time. I'd also be totally cool along the Cote de Azur along the Med. :)

Me and the wife are working on a move to NC. I actually tried to push her on a move to Australia but she wasn't going for it.

Leaving Iowa is the best decision I ever made. It's not a bad place to visit every couple of years during the summer only. :)

The first time I was in Raleigh and especially in Durham I couldn't believe how beautiful it was. Highly, highly, highly underrated part of the US.
