The only place in GA I would live is Atlanta. I would not want to live in either Charleston or Savannah. Comparing what's left in GA and SC, the remaining SC metros offer a better QOL in my opinion. I really don't know much about Kentucky so it'd be SC>AL>GA>KY.

In regards to QOL, what stands out? I know they are larger but I'm interested in knowing what really stands out?

So what's Alabama's excuse for being ... Alabama?
New York, North Carolina, and Florida are all bigger than Georgia. And all East of the Mississppi...

He was referring to land area, not population.

Sooo Florida is not east of the Mississippi?

Edit: I see Florida's includes water, but still. Either is correct.

The context in which the point was brought up was related to population, which is why the total land area stat is the correct one. Newsboy wasn't 100% clear in that post but I was aware of this stat and knew what he was getting at.
