Relocation Advice (neighborhood, place, summers)

[balps]

Needed a temporary place to relocate to and I settled for Austin. Taking the good with the bad.

Trying to find my true place is a life goal of mine. Trying to weed through it all and so I ask for your help once again.

Wrote some notes down this morning during breakfast.

PEOPLE

Mature
Refined
Intelligent
Open-Minded
Outgoing
Laid-Back

PLACE

Rainy/Cloudy
Calming
Mild Summers
Mild-Typical Winters
Lots of green (trees, shrubs, plants)
By/near a large body of water

Been researching for five years now and I've honed it down to somewhere in the NW or New England. It's looking more and more like a neighborhood of a city than the city itself.

Any opinions/advice are much appreciated.

The northwest is what you're looking for. New England doesn't exactly have mild weather.

Yeah, the PNW sounds like a better match. New England has harsh winters, fewer rainy days, and the people tend to be a bit more reserved.

Sounds like Olympia, Washington to me. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olympia,_Washington
