What is the best city to live in?

[ReppinTheD]

My family is moving out of Michigan - that is a fact.To where? I don't know for certain, but here are some places we were heavily consideringTop 3)Newyork (around Manhattan)VirginiaNew Jersey(Probably not States)FloridaCaliforniaWe wanted to stay on the east coast mostly...so basicall I was asking where do you think would be the best place to live at from those choices. If you live in the places I mentioned, even better becase I want to hear it from someone who has actually experienced life in those places.

[ReppinTheD]

I give a good mark to northern Virginia, other than that I can't say much. It's a nice area and close to DC.

Your family is just up and moving? It isn't because a job and you are moving where ever you want huh? Hmmm...Well, I have lived in three different cities in Ohio, I have lived in the capitol of Iowa, and I have lived in St. Louis. I am currently living in a small town in Ohio. I personally think I will continue living in Ohio because I like it here. I don't know, maybe it is just because I am used to it here, but I have lived and visited pleny of states all up and down the EST and I happen to like Ohio the best. I am not saying you should move here, I am just giving my very biased opinion.Where do you think you want to live? Is there any place that excites you are you (personally) are considering more than the others?

Move to NJ, it's very nice to live, but Ny is good to.

The best city in the United States to live in is Orlando Florida, I grew up there, and I will tell you there is not a better city in the world. The weather is always nice, alot nicer than Michigan. The ocean is only 30-45 minutes away or so. Women are EVERYWHERE, and you can date two women, and they will never find out about each other. The High school sports scene is unbelievable, one of the most competetive football leagues in the nation, and a great basketball league(don't know if your still in high school.) Getting a job will be easy, go to one of the theme parks. Disney needs lots of employees, Sea World, Wet and Wild, Universal Theaters, anywhere you want to work. There are thousands of restaurants, hotels, theaters, everything you could want there. It's simply a great place.edit: and The Magic play there, so you know that the pro sports are worth watching, you might even like a different team after seeing them live.

Nothern Virginia is a very safe and good place to live. No, it doesn't really have big cities like New York or Los Angeles, but its close to DC, and DC is beautiful during Spring. The only problem might be is that it is pretty expensive, as well.

I happen to not like snow do to the fact, I have not been around it much in my life.

The downside is when you don't have a snow blower and you get a big snow and have to shovel the drive way yourself. Then it sucks. But nothing beats a game of football in the snow. And even at my age of 17, going sledding and stuff is still fun.

When I went on my school trip there it was during the Spring and I had the worst allergies of my life. I woke up every night about 10 times to blow my nose and in the morning I could not open up my eyes they were so crusted up.

I love my city toronto but you probably dont like canada so id say San Diego, I ve been to, the city is just really nice, summers are good, crime rates low I think, and the're sports teams are pretty good, the chargers own this year and the padres are ok, not bad.

 

[ASUFan22]

I heard New Jersey is the worst city to live. One guy on FPM HATES living there, hates the people there and everything. There were actually two people who lived in both Jersey and New York and they say New York is 100x better.

The Bay area is a great place to love. Great sites, Great places. Weather is good. Everything is good. The only bad thing is I live hella close to a fault that should be going off very soon................. stupid earthquakes. but its a nice place to live. Not too cold. Not too hot. The only bad parts of the Bay are the "ghetto" areas. some of richmond, oakland, and dats really all. Houses arent all that expensive in some locations. so yes. and we go dumb out hurrrr yadadada???

</div>Hey you forgot East Palo Alto! The houses are expensive. The houses in EPA are sh*t, but they cost 600,000 plus. The neighborhood'lums' suck too. In less than a 5 minute drive time, however, you reach the beautiful Palo Alto, followed by Menlo Park and Atherton. The houses there go from $1,000,000 to $10,000,000. Sometimes, they go even higher.

 

[CavsRules]

Best city? Cleveland

 

[ballorama]

Dallas, VERY cheap houses (land in texas is cheap), good gas prices, nice schools, low crime rate, EXCELLENT weather.

I'm not so sure...I also agree with ASUFan, I don't think I have ever heard anything positive about Jersey.
