About the place you live. I feel like I really need a change I have lived here my entire life (Minnesota) and theres been alot of not nice things that have occured. And I just want to go take a vacation or something maybe even move if it would work out thats just really hard to do on my own with 2 kids.

I love it here in Chattanooga, TN. There's so much to do; people are friendly... it's a great place for kids, and (having lived in Minnesota) the cost of living PALES in comparison.

I love where I live, everything about it, I live in colorado right behind pikes peak, and I really could not bring myself to move away... But If I felt like I hated it, I would move! I lived in the denver area for 6 months and said no way, I don't care about the money, I am going home!0

I love that there is so much to do here in Houston. We have professional football, baseball, basketball, and soccer. We have a wonderful museum and theater district. We have awesome restaurants. We have possibly the best medical center in the world. The beach is a short drive down to Galveston. Love, love, love this city.0

Is it warm there?0 -
I grew up in Minnesota and now have lived in Southern California for about 12 years. It is okay, but much too crowded and too expensive. I wish I could move back to Minnesota.0

Other than the people of the midwest, particularly Wisconsin, the city I live in sucks *kitten*.0

I love in a suburb of Detroit....overall I love Michigan's 4 seasons. The winters can be sucky, but you really only have to deal with any one season for a few months and it's on to the next one. Spring is warm and cheery, summers are a decent temp and hot enough to swim and enjoy the outdoors without getting TOO hot (though we certainly get out spurts of weeks in the upper 90's, but not all summer long) and fall is gorgeous with the changing leaves. Winter can even be enjoyable, the snow can be beautiful and it's fun to play in.
We live in a nice family suburb but Detroit is just a quick 20-30 minute drive for a Red Wings/Pistons/Lions/Tigers game, the symphony, any number of shows at the Fox Theater, Fisher theater, Opera House.....lots of nice bars and restaurants. Of course there are many parts of Detroit that are BAD, but at peak hours downtown where events are going on its great. I would love to be able to ice skate so I could skate at Campus Martiaus when the tree is up and decorated.
In our city, we live right in the middle of suburban neighborhoods and parks, but also every restaurant, store, mall you could ask for. In case you can't tell, I love where we live, and to boot I am one mile down the road from my brother and my dad lives 20 minutes to the east and my inlaws live 15 minutes to the west. Perfect!0 -
I live in a little town called Picton in Ontario, Canada. It beautiful here, but I hate it. Born and raised here. No friends around any more, moved to neighbouring cities and some hours away, or other all the way in British Columbia. I'd love to be able to get out of this place, one day.0

Boise... is a fantastic place to get fit!!! I call it a "mini-" Denver. There is an awesome bike/running trail called the Greenbelt that goes about 15 miles altogether, and it's gorgeous as it runs alongside the Boise River just outside of downtown. There are mountains that actually are partially IN THE CITY, and part of those is what I use for my hill training.
Overall... it's super friendly, too!!! I love it here!0 -
I currently live in Seattle, WA and contrary to what everyone says- It does not always rain here. It can be really beautiful when the sun is out. Lots of water all around, hills and moutains very close to here. In the spring and summer it is wonderfully scenic here. Now- to be honest- in the winter time- not so great here and it can be wet and dreary. Right now its chilly but still sunny so yay!0

I can wear shorts in winter.0

Free food, free satellite tv, free gym, free medical... its great except during lock-down.0

30 minutes from Philly, 90 minutes from NYC, suburban feel, trees, high taxes, good schools (cherry hil, NJ)0

I didnt think I could ever move away but I dont feel like I should be here..Ive had to many bad experiences and Ive always just wanted to move away from them and start new. I have pretty much started off pretty good here since all those things happened..but lots of things feel really not good about being here lately. My family is stressed from helping with the kids alot and Im sooo thankful that they do help. My kids dads just make me not very happy Im tired of constantly doing stuff that benefits them but none of it helps me out, I take care of my kids 24/7 and they are there when its convient for there schedules off of partying, school, friends, social life blah.. I am a full time student and working part time and taking care of the kids all the time when Im not at school (I bring my kids to work with me). This state is just making me feel like I cant do anything I want..Im stuck here going to school because I cant go anywhere else with two kids but Im starting to think I could go somewhere else...0 -
Several things I love about Pittsburgh:
- I've heard people from all over say that Pittsburgh people are the friendliest people they've ever run across. I've heard it said that if you ask a Pittsburgher for directions to someplace, instead of telling you, they'll say, "Follow me...I'll get you there."
- It's a big city with a small-town feel. So many different neighborhoods, each with their own personality and culture.
- The view when driving into the city from the Fort Pitt tunnels. On the other side, all you see is the back side of Mount Washington, but once you're through, BAM! The city.
- The Southside.
- The Strip District.
- Primanti Brothers.
- PNC Park...and my front-row season tickets.
- Kennywood Park.
- The Great Allegheny Passage (our local rails-to-trails system).
- Again...the people.0 -

I friggin' LOVE TEXAS!!!!!! My least favorite part of Texas is further WEST, but I like it everywhere else....

Small town feel I love that ..my town is defenitly growing but it still has the small town feel. I just need a change in my life so I want to go somewhere new. Might be a little while before I get to where I want to be but Im going to get there =] I would have to find a good college to apply for too because thats an issue too I need to finish my education its very important to me.0 -

Duluth is a beautiful city! I live in Rochester.0 -
I currently live in sunny San Diego, California. And we pay for that sunshine. However I find the people to be a bit...rude in general. Nothing specific, it's not as bad as when I lived in LA, but many people who live here are rather inconsiderate and shallow. I'm sure you'll find at least a few people like that wherever you live but here I just feel like it's spread on a little thicker.
But it's all okay, my husband and I are moving back up to closer to our hometowns in San Jose (About 8 hours north of where we currently reside).
California in general is freaking expensive to live but it's the same rent to live in San Jose as we are paying here in San Diego and we'd rather be by our friends and family.0 -
My family is all around me. I grew up with 5 aunts living within a 2 blocks radius. So my friends in the neighborhood were my cousins. I loved it. When I grew up and purchased my own home I was only 1.5 hours away but it was really lonely.0

I'm in Minnesota too...love the summers and the lakes, hate the winters!
I've lived in Nashville-- liked it! And San Diego- it was fantastic, but too expensive (and too many cockroaches, lol!)
I want to move to Oregon I think. I'm getting antsy.0 -

Agree I hate the winters too, snow can stay awayy lol. Ill for sure spend another winter here but im just getting really tired of it around here lol I need an adventure in life. I know if i bring this up to any family or the kids other sides of the fam they will freak out of me really badly but I need to do whats best for me too..and my kids need a happy mom. I think i will be able to stay focused on my goals better if I just go somewhere new, Im a college student and I need to partially feel like one aside from all the homework..I just need some freedom and to be able to go places whenever.0 -
I live in Seattle. I pretty much love everything about living here. :flowerforyou:0
-
EVERYTHING.
Colorado has four seasons, lots of open space and parks.. best public transit in the nation, a thriving beer scene, the mountains, a diverse culture, reasonable cost of living ... I could go on all day.0
