If you moved tomorrow, where would you move to?

[nickgutierrez]

The reason I ask is that I'm really thinking about moving within the next year. I was considering a move back to Chicago, or maybe to the D.C. area. Where would you go?

[Critters2]

1. Iowa nt

[greatauntoftriplets]

2. Ireland....

After I win the Lotto.

:hi:

[wildhorses]

3. further up the mountain

folks up there know what they've got;)

[jgraz]

4. My couch

or maybe the futon. Not sure yet -- it takes a lot of planning.

[TOhioLiberal]

5. Not tomorrow...

...but I am moving to Texas.

[jgraz]

6. Serious answer: get the fuck out of Florida, dude.

Chicago is an awesome city. Even though I love the Bay Area, I miss Chicago like crazy.

[nickgutierrez]

7. That's the obvious part.

Living in Florida is bad enough, but this town is like the elephant graveyard of America.

[jgraz]

[Burma Jones]

36. Hey, I was born in Gary, IN........and my Pop got us out as soon as he could....

[RebelOne]

29. I'll second that. I lived in Miami, the "hell hole of the South,"

most of my life until I wised up and moved here to the Atlanta area. Move here. It is ideal for everything. Prices are lower for everything. We have near-perfect weather (except for this summer) year 'round.

[jgraz]

37. Atlanta is a great town

If it weren't for that whole "being in the south" thing, I'd consider moving there.

[Fox Mulder]

9. Ireland, England, or Italy.

[MrScorpio]

10. Amsterdam, BABY!

[GaYellowDawg]

11. Let me see...

If I could choose...

San Francisco - I visited there last year during an academic conference and loved it. The people were friendly. I liked the multiculturalism (I got back to Georgia and couldn't help thinking how white the place is). Great museums. Even better food. It's a beautiful city - every two or three blocks, you get a different postcard shot. Muir Woods (one of the most beautiful places I've ever visited) and Mt. Tamalpain are a close drive. Efficient mass transit. I even kinda like the 49ers.

If I could afford the housing and could magically reduce the stress on the fault lines, I wouldn't hesitate for a second.

[philosophie_en_rose]

12. Scotland

:)

[Rambis]

38. Ditto

I am a native US citizen but I can't stand the heat politically or literally in the US. The political part goes without saying and anything over 70 degrees and I feel like I am going to melt.
Good pints, great food (deep fried everything) and the sea what else do I need.... A peat fire and a good book would top things off nicely.

[LostinVA]

13. New Jersey

Seriously.

I'm moving there Friday.

[Pied Piper]

14. I ain't movin' anytime soon

I live in a great high-rise in Boston, with a view overlooking the Back Bay Fens (also know as "The Fenway"). Two minutes to the Gardner Museum, five minutes to the MFA, and 17 minutes from work (walking, of course - I don't own a car). Great arts/music scene. I've told my friends that the next time I move, it wil be feet first, under a sheet! Here's the view out my window:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

20. My dear Pied Piper!

Well, look who showed up!

How lovely to see you, my dear friend!

Glad to see you're still around, and happy in Boston...

:pals:

[Bennyboy]

15. Back to Grass Valley, Nevada City area in CA

Man I miss the stars. Waking up and seeing big trees and the smell of the pines. I miss the arts and progressive community that lacks her in Sacramento. Oh, I miss growing my own pot too.

[Vidar]

16. Italy, but it's only a dream. Spent a month there 27 years ago.

[Gormy Cuss]

17. Boston

Down by the River...
Down by the banks of the River Charles

That's what's happenin' baby

That's where you'll find me
Along with lovers, muggers, and thieves.

But they're cool people

I love that dirty water
Oh oh, Boston, you're my home

[Mz Pip]

18. Back to Chicago

I'm from there originally, but have lived in the SF Bay Area since 1969. If I had to move, I'd go back there.

Mz Pip
:dem:

[AlCzervik]

19. Monterey.

[NancyBreen]

21. Back to Chicago

I moved to Seattle 21 years ago and love it, but I'll always love Sweet Home Chicago. The best people in the world live there.

[SaveElmer]

22. Key West...nt

[Breeze54]

23. North of San Francisco !

I have no specifics though but as long as it's warm, leans blue and is near the ocean, I'd be happy.

[Norwood]

24. Seattle Washington or Portland Oregon

Both cities has always struck me as really beautiful, especially Portland.

[RushIsRot]

25. Since this is just pretend: Maine in the summer and Hawaii in the

winter. Not fond of big temperature extremes.

[jmowreader]

26. Depends on the amount of money I had...

Moderate amount of money: either Raleigh or Charlotte. Maybe Chapel Hill; that's supposed to be nice, although there's just some little cracker university there.

Good chunk of change: either New York City, Boston or Seattle.

A LOT of money: I'd move to Los Angeles and start building my book.

Obscene amounts of money: The nicest town that no one ever heard of in the entire world is Bad Freienwalde, Germany. I'd move there.

[Bjornsdotter]

27. Lund, Sweden

.... that area, really almost anywhere in Skane or Copenhagen, Denmark.

Cheers

[Jimbo S]

28. Canada

Toronto more specifically, just to get some fresh air and get away from this clusterfuck of a country for a while.

[terrya]

30. Toronto

Someday it's going to happen. I know I keep saying it, but...

[MissMillie]

31. Probably Maine

I hear crim son has a nice house for sale.

[Arugula Latte]

32. Fantasy: South of France

Closer to reality: Probably back to Berkeley. Love that town.

But, I'm not moving. Portland is great and much easier to live in if you have a family than the Bay Area is, in general.
