Part II: Which of these US towns would you want to live in it if these were the only choices?
Nearly 100 votes in the original thread, let's see how many we get this time.

I cant decide yet....had to even consult my map for this one.
Moab is too isolated (but still I like it better than the east coast ones). I'm thinking about Twenty-nine Palms or Pahrump...even though....it would never be my first choice in Nevada or California.
Kingman might be the winner for me.
I would consider Kansas but I have been through Russel and I seem to recall it being a pretty depressing place though I THINK some president or astronaut was born there.
If I had to go east it would be the one in New Hampshire (but it just sounds cold) or Alexandria, VA.
I think I'll vote for Kingman....but liked Flagstaff much better in the first round!

I voted for Exeter, NH. My brother went to high school there (Phillips Exeter), and I visited him a few times... such a charming little town, though a bit cold & isolated for my taste. But I sometimes dream of escaping to small-town New England, so that would be a cool place to go. 
I also considered Nevada or 29 Palms, just because they're near home... but those particular towns are just too darned HOT!! Another I'd consider is Alexandria, since that's a really beautiful town, and I'm originally from Maryland (still have relatives there too). |

This was a hard one. Someone needs to do a poll with just big cities.

Good gosh these polls are getting retarded. LOL Where on earth do you find these towns?? I only heard of 3 on the list. Do you like flip open a map and just point in a general direction, with your eyes closed, and pick a city off the map? LOL
