Those are good thoughts in this time of turmoil. I agree , I& I were younger, Canada would be my home today ! The poetically correct thing has gone out the window, it’s sad we live under such rule. Quality of life should be part of the decisions , as to where you live.

Tough call, as I like many places. Western North Carolina; some parts of Arizona with some elevation (like the Sedona area... even though the town is nothing special... or maybe Prescott); maybe southern Utah; Washington, DC; a warmer/sunnier portion of the Bay Area or nearby. In reality, we ain't goin' nowhere, cuz our two daughters and granddaughter are likely to stay in the area or region where we are now (Alabama).

I'm good in Cincinnati, but if I were to choose somewhere else, I'd go with the Pacific Northwest. And I'd specifically say Seattle. I like having four real seasons, lush greenery and the seafood selection there seems like it would be great (but I admittedly don't have much experience with that). I do wish Seattle would get a bit more snow than it does, but Vancouver is only a couple and a half hours north, so I could always go there when I wanted to see more snow.

If it’s snow you want, not Vancouver they get less than Seattle, go to Whistler, that’s where all the BC people go for their winter fix.

It’s nice to see not everyone wants to go the same way.......there was a time when that was not so much the case. You name a place and I can tell of the good the bad and the ugly. Too me , if you have not been there than you are not qualified to have an opinion......

The Chicago area has always been appealing to me ( esp when I lived in Madison, WI, another great city), and Evanston in particular. Otherwise, CA cities like SF and LA have a certain fascination, but they're just too expensive.

Pretty content in New England, though, although I'm not sure that I'll be here for the rest of my life..
