Cost is kinda cheating - most people would gladly live in the Bay Area or NYC or whatever if they could afford it. These places are obviously conventionally desirable on other metrics.
Here's my answer: I'd move to Cleveland if it weren't in the Midwest - even if it were just a hundred or so miles to the east across the arbitrary political boundary of Pennsylvania. The city's oddly fascinating to me, and it has surprisingly decent public transit considering its size, but I feel a need to escape my home region while I'm still young.
I'd move to Phoenix if it had a comprehensive light rail system. Seems interesting to live in a city that's so diametrically opposite what I'm used to - but I don't want a car anytime soon.

Phoenix is probably another "if it weren't so hot." I find it beautiful.
I'll take Seattle or Portland as it is.
