    I live in Northern Nevada and there are a lot of negatives here but there are also a lot of positives to living here if you go out and look for them. Some of my favorite things are that I can get to Lake Tahoe in less than hour, where I can ski in the winter or hike and play in the water in the summer. There are a lot of good restaurants around here (I love food lol) and there are also a lot of museums and shows around town. I also like that I am in driving distance to so many places that are out of state like San Francisco or Sacramento. :)

    I live in Vancouver, BC, Canada and I LOVE my city (although my bank account hates it - we are now one of the most expensive cities in the world to live in).

    Here is why:

    - from my house it is a 5 minute walk to a forest with lots of trails for walking, running, biking etc.
    - the beach is a 5 minute drive or 20 minute walk (we have a LOT of beaches in Vancouver)
    - less than an hour drive and you are on a mountain with a ski hill, plus other slightly further mountains
    - the city is beautiful, well maintained, lush green everywhere
    - it's safe
    - good public transit
    - multicultural and accepting of many different types of people (LGBT etc)

    I could go on. There are a couple things that aren't great, but I would never want to live in another city. I would maybe move out of the city to life a quieter life, or the prices may force me out if I ever want to own a house.
