Live in Austin, but my favorite cities are in the northeast: Boston, NYC, Philadelphia, Baltimore, & DC. I like my cities dense, walkable, and full of history.
Yeah. Torrance, California will always be my favorite place. Its safe, its diverse, the people are friendly, and its only 15 miles from downtown LA, the beaches or the hills.
I love Dallas, but I really wish it would have been more economical to stay there.
People will live in the vicinity of where the best job offer is, often accompanied by places where they can best afford a place to live and where there friends and family are. But that doesn't necessarily mean that is where they would most like to live.
My true hometown (where I was born and raised ) is Rochester NY. While Rochester is my favorite city in New York State, it is not my overall favorite city

I wanted to move off Long Island when I was a teenager, but when I went to Maine for college, I realized how much I do love it and miss it. Maine is nice, but it was too much of a culture shock to me, and it caused me to transfer schools. After 2 years I transferred to a school in central upstate NY. It wasn't as much of a culture shock to me, although it is very different from downstate. But there were a lot of people from NYC at the school, so it wasn't too different for me.
I travel very often, which I love, but I always look forward to coming home no matter how much I love a place. This past summer, I was overlooking the Mediterranean in our 5 star hotel in Santorini, Greece. It was paradise. I told my husband how I would love to retire there someday, but then we came back to reality that we would miss home too much.
It's had the same acronym since my grandma was little.
No, it's far from my favorite town.(before people start calling me prejudice, I'm Italian and proud)
I split most of my time in the suburbs of LA and in Taipei. I like both a lot (LA a lot more than I did before), but I'm pretty content with NYC. I do get a bit restless though, so I'm considering Oakland, Chicago, Melbourne, Detroit, Philly, Pittsburgh, Seattle, Montreal, Nice, or Noumeau. Maybe even back to LA or Taipei.
