What state is the best?

[dxkj]

What state is the best state to live in? I've done PA and IL and NH so far, and my wife has lived in WI.
Still trying to figure out where we should move to. Her family is in WI. My family is in OH IN and PA. Pretty much every state has a good college with the correct graduate program for her, so its kinda coin toss.


I would like to get away from the friggin cold winters, but I also hate it when it is hot and humid. Im guessing living in PA IL WI OH IN are all pretty similar so we probably won't make up our minds and just pick something in this area.


Yeah Im bored and thinking

I've only lived in Florida and Connecticut... So I'll go with Florida.

 

Midwest is to boring, try WA, CA, FL....

 

[jmelnek]

Michigan....

That area of the country sucks. I hated every minute of living in the Midwest. I like the South myself, one of the Carolinas might be nice.

I like Louisiana and Mississippi personally.

If anyone says California, I am going to remove their eyes with a spoon.

The only places in Oregon with good universities with grad programs are in the Willamette Valley (Portland, Corvallis, Eugene).

Summers are gorgeous and not too hot at all. Winters are dark and rainy and depressing. Sometimes you can go several weeks without ever seeing the sun.

If I had my choice, I'd probably live in Portland or Eugene in the summer and move to Boulder, CO in the winters. yeah, I like the snow but i also like the sun.

Arizona. Tucson, nicer than Phoenix and the UofA is there.

Madison, WI. If you live near Milwaukee your only about 2 hours from Chicago. But if I were to choose a city in WI it would be Madison, which is about 2 hours from Milwaukee.

Illinois ain't bad. Its cheap to live here as long as you aren't in a metro area.

Hmmm, they must like the feeling of drowning in their own sweat 5 seconds after walking outside.
When I was in N.O. in May of last year, it was only in the mid 80's and I thought I was going to die.

California is by far the best state.
