Where Would You Rather Live? Game

[brock2010]

Frisco. Irvine CA or Irving TX?

[MyCityIsBetterThanYours]

I'll take the master planned community in CA with near perfect weather and abundant sunshine throughout the year.

Atlanta or Wash DC?

Washington DC. Topeka KS or Lawton OK?

[TheTimidBlueBars]

Lawton. At least the scenery's pretty. I dunno if there's anything to do there but I street-viewed around Topeka once and it looked super desolate and run-down.

Lewiston, ID or Quincy, IL?

If the kids were grown, I would pick Lewiston. It has the advantage in just about everything over Quincy.

But if I'm still raising kids, I'll pick Quincy because reasons.

Clarkston, WA or Hannibal, MO?

Clarkston, WA. Missouri is not for me.

Tempe, AZ or Galveston, TX?

Galveston. Really charming seaside city with an historic downtown business street, The Strand, that recalls New Orleans' French Quarter in its appearance. Plus it's where "Juneteenth" happened in 1865. (The Emancipation Proclamation, don't forget, applied only to slaves in the territories in rebellion, which means those in Delaware, Maryland, Kentucky and Missouri remained slaves until the 13th Amendment was ratified. Meanwhile, those in the Confederacy remained slaves until the Union troops liberated them. That didn't happen in most of the Confederacy until the surrender at Appomattox on April 9, 1865. It took a little while for the news to reach Galveston, then Texas' largest city.)

Osage Beach, Mo., or Wisconsin Dells, Wis.?

Wisconsin Dells--I'd much rather live in WI than MO; better summer weather, too, and not far from Madison

Salem, OR vs. Olympia, WA

I would go with Salem here. A good half-way point to a lot of West-Coast attractions and probably not quite as expensive or far-leftish as Olympia.

Keeping it in the Pacific Northwest

Wenatchee, WA vs Medford, OR

Medford because it is much greener.

Newport, OR or Newport, RI?
