Hi, im from portugal so sorry about my english...
Well, im 22 years old and i ALWAYS loved the 'littletown' way of life of americans, im going to usa in a few months so im asking here suggestions of this kind of towns...
Something like Everwood from 'Everwood' serie... or 'Silverstown' from 'Joe Dirt' movie, or maybe something like the Hannah Montana movie... something next to the nature
A city where you see old mens walking on the streets with cowboy hats and boots...
a town with a main street where you can solve all of your problems without huge lines, no need to take a car and travel miles and miles in huge traffics...
I want to wake up in peace, no noises, make my break fast, and have quiet moments while im in home...
Something really close from Everwood... i just LOVED that town and the way of life from the ppl who live there...
Anyway, hope you guys understand what i tried to say ;D
Any suggestions?
Here is a list of some cities that i got from a website ::
Well, the United States is unique in the matter that there are so many different areas you could choose from based on what kind of climate you like. One region of the U.S. gets a lot of snow in the winter, while another region gets absolutely no snow. Some regions have more sunlight then others. Some areas get more rain then others.
Based on that list, it seems to me that you don't mind the idea of living in an area that gets a decent amount of snowfall, however before I could suggest anything I don't want to assume that's the case.
If you could give us an example of what type of weather you like, I'm sure we could absolutely give you some small town ideas according to what kind of climate(s) you'd wish to live in.

Oh sorry i forgot about the weather...
Well i LOVE cold, and i HATE hot places =] some snow on the winter is not a bad idea...
I haven't really seen those shows so I'm not sure. Everwood was filmed around Salt Lake so maybe a small town in Northern Utah or Southern Idaho. Some parts of Montana and Wyoming are quite pretty and still fairly small. If you're wanting cooler many to most of those should work, but somewhere in Idaho or Montana might work better as they're further North.
If you want cowboy type stuff East Coast towns probably won't work as the cowboy thing is more Western mythos.
Perhaps something in eastern Massachusetts or Rhode Island might work, as there is a strong Portuguese diaspora in both areas. That could help you adjust culturally and both have the climate you want. Maybe in Massachusetts, places like Mansfield, Hyannis, Plymouth, Hopkinton and Ayers might work. In Rhode Island, places like Coventry, East Greenwich, Jamestown and Kingston might work.

I would not recommend any of the Colorado ski towns for you, they will not give you the experience you are looking for (Steamboat Springs, Telluride from your list, in addition to Aspen, Vail, and others).
