Would consider living in...
Denver - A little generic, but seems like a nice town anyway.
Santa Fe - Very interesting and also in a beautiful area.
Austin - Except for the weather, I might be able to handle it.
These seem nice, but...
Albuquerque - Crime!
Salt Lake City - Beautiful area, but too un-progressive!
Minneapolis - If it weren't Antarctica half the year then I totally might live there...
Thanks, but no thanks...
Boise - Not really a very pretty area, I don't enjoy the climate, and it seems a little too un-progressive.
Las Vegas - Ew. 'nough said.
Phoenix - Too hot for life. For such a big city, it's SO boring. It really is like one giant suburb.
Tucson - I have not heard good things...

It's a shame you're too hung up on being "progressive" to really see that all of these cities have nice things to offer.
I wonder if you've even visited all of these places...
