Okay, since I have been critical of many cities and I have high standards of what a city should or should not look like, is there any place people recommend that meets the following criteria?

My criteria is:

  • One hour from the beach max, but will make an exception
  • Clean
  • Modern
  • Nice people (aka friendly)
  • Nice weather (hate cloudy cities and over snow)
  • Lots to do.
  • Side walks
  • Street Lights (usual civilized stuff)
  • Absolutely hate windy places or flat terrain.

Bloody keyboard, can't change the dam title.

According to the Internal Revenue Service, the 400 richest American households earned a total of $US138 billion, up from $US105 billion a year earlier. That's an average of $US345 million each, on which they paid a tax rate of just 16.6 per cent.

Add in politics slightly to the left of Joseph Stalin, and you're looking at Portland, Oregon.

I heard it's rainy there.

The bluer the water, the more preferable. We have greenish ocean water out here :dead:

Normal down-to-earth people is the most important thing. I cannot stand the shitty better than thou (in love with myself) attitude in the DC area.

Looking at various parts of CA using streetview, CA is quite similar to Australia. My sister was recently here and loved the place.

I have lived in many areas in california and I have to say that Rocklin California was by far the best place. Its further from the beach than you would like but if you have kids and looking to raise a family there I would suggest Rocklin. Good schools, nice neighborhood and affordable prices. Another place I would suggest is Bend Or. but once again not close to the beach. There is some mountains if you love to snowboard and mountain bike riding is very huge here.

We are looking at the exact same list except we need East coast. It's so nice to look forward to a place with no snow...
