factors im focusing on.

local economy (businesses, resources etc..)
environment (seasons, trees etcetera)
weather (whats it like, how fast can it change?)
natural disasters (tornadoes, earthquakes, floods?)
housing prices (lower = better)

@OGIONIK,
San Diego, CA, sometimes it rains and May and June of foggy in the mornings. Once in a great while we get a little shake but never much. The biggest issue for us is fire and we are in fire season right now. When the Santa Ana winds blow we can be in some trouble.

@OGIONIK,
Australia, but you have to learn to talk propper and be a bit of a culture vulture.

@OGIONIK,
california is like heaven for me, everything is so nice (outside the cities anyways lol)

i remember going to big bear, the rivers and stuff, there was this tunnel with water, and a concrete ramp, everyone would slide down it. crazy stuff like 50-100 people there. there was a lake too, and it had these huge cracks and we would drive so close to the effing edge i was like are u serious!!?!?!?

@OGIONIK,
We had a comparable thread the other day, probably useful:

... checks ...

Oh no, it was an old thread, but I only just posted some info on it last month. See here:

@nimh,
Austin is number one for best standard of living, and that's where our son is now living. We told him we'll help him buy a home, but he told us he needed to wait until next year.

@OGIONIK,
I lives in Ventura, CA near the beach. The weather is near perfect all year round. We are far enough away from the fault zones that earthquakes are a simple inconvenience (I have only experienced one small one in three years). I am close enough to LA to drive in. Granted, it's more expensive that Fargo, ND but you get what you pay for.

But if McCain is elected I'm moving to Amsterdam.

@BumbleBeeBoogie,
What would be a more interesting map is one where it shows "how much of their savings were lost during the past year" in dollars and percent.

@TilleyWink,
I like San Diego too but I heard it is being taken over by the wetbacks. Is that true?
