If you could pick any place in the US to live where would it be? (Los Angeles, life)

Guntersville is great. I've been to 48 states and 7 provinces, and I like it right here in NWGA.

I'd still live in my state because I just Love it.

Alpine, Englewood Cliffs, Hoboken and Montclair are just some of the places in NJ.

..1) Boston, and points north, (Portland, Burlington)
..2) Chicago, and points north (Milwaukee, Madison, Minn-St.Paul)

I'd have multiple homes, in these places:

1. New Jersey (Central, Monmouth Cty probably) - nothing huge, just simple and nice and easy, and close to a shore house as well (so that's 2 Jersey homes I guess, lol)
2. Los Angeles, probably Santa Monica - one of the condos near the beach, in the south part of SM near Venice Beach, so I could live out my fantasy of being Jack Tripper, lol (I lol, but I'm not kidding! lol)
3. South Florida, probably Palm Beach to Fort Lauderdale area - a beachfront townhouse
4. A studio apartment in Manhattan, probably in the midtown area, just a place to crash for those nights I'm out on the town or want to spend a day or two in the city
5. Cabin in the woods near Tahoe
6. Cabin in the Northern Adirondacks - start with a small cabin and then build a bigger one myself
7. A small condo in Palm Springs or Indian Wells, or even a house in the desert near Desert Hot Springs (other side of I-10 from the desert cities)
8. A ranch on a good 50+ acres (preferably 100+ acres) in the Cal-Nev-Ari area, in the mojave desert, "off the grid", with solar and wind power, water supply (preferably spring/well) on property, Satellite TV/Internet, and cell phone service. I would have a home on there but I'd work on building my own add-ons and other buildings (like bungalows and cabins for guests, as well as a big garage/storage building), and one day this complex would be used to host events like special days for sick and handicapped kids, or for inner-city youths, or for the elderly or infirmed, as well as for Church groups - really for anyone who really needs the break to come and enjoy the ranch, I will accept almost any reason to have a group out to the ranch.

**I would also consider building a cabin in the woods just outside Seattle
***I would be visiting Las Vegas and Montreal a lot but wouldn't need homes in either, since I have tons of family in Montreal to stay with and in Vegas I would just stay at hotels, why bother with having a home there

There, now you have my greediest of dreams laid out for all to see, lol...

I hope you've got millions and millions saved for that!!

But it's nice to dream, right?

[Saint.Patrick]

San Francisco

[JHG722]

Denver or a high-rise condo on Rittenhouse in Philly

[TANaples]

Where I was born, raised, and spent 58 years of my life. New York. I never wanted to leave.

[Bydand]

I would pick exactly where I am. Why do I think that? Because we did have a choice to go anyplace in the US, and this place suits our family best.

[Rwarky]

Miami or Ft. Lauderdale, Florida.
