    Chicago, need I say more? Beaches. Gorgeous downtown. Beautiful Suburbs. Lake Michigan. Sears Tower (which I refuse to call Willis Tower). The Taste. I could go ON & ON.

    Beaches??? It's a lake man

    I'm from New York City, Brooklyn to be exact, what's the best thing about it? Everything!!!! I can get a great slice of pizza on every corner of the city, Lady Liberty is our guardian, Times Square the crossroads, the Brooklyn Bridge a Seventh Wonder, the people are tough and take no nonsense. It's a city so nice they named it twice. . It's a concrete jungle where dreams are made of, there is nothing you can't do. Let's here it for New York.

    But you can't buy a coke over 16 oz.... :sad:

    4am last call at the bars
    Wings
    Beef on Weck

    No earthquakes
    No hurricanes
    No Tornados
    No mud slides
    I deal with Snow, get a foot overnight, push it out of the way in about 10 minutes and I am on my way.

  • Living near/in Boston is pretty sweet. There always seems to be a game going on in the City (plus our teams kick *kitten* besides the Sox this year)

    There is a ton of stuff to do inside as well as outdoors. If you get bored in my city then there has to be something very wrong with you. HA!!!

    I grew up in a small town in Northern Utah ( Morgan, Utah). I loved growing up there. I lived on a small farm. The schools were small so you knew everyone. My graduating class was 112. My parents still live there and I love to go visit often. I love driving down the road and having everyone wave to you. Sadly, housing has boomed there and land is expensive there.
  • amazing mountain views

    Exactly. I live in Toronto now and so the "Beach" is Lake Ontario. NYC is not known for its beaches, but we got them and the metropolitan area is surrounded by the ocean, so I just have a hard time getting with the lake beach.
