Why do so many people hate the Midwest?

I can deal with any place for a shorter period of time. Could I live there long-term? Probably not
The quality of life in NH is unmatched compared to just about anywhere in the lower 48. However, it is easier to live in NH if you are independently wealthy, a creative self-employed type, have a good amount of specialized skills, or know quite a few people. After this stint ends I am hoping to go back to NH and get a better position at YBP if you have heard of them. They have a big office in Contoocook. I would be the type of person who would prefer to live in a modular prefab house in NH instead of a mcmansion in the South

I prefer the Upper Midwest if I had a choice. I find the culture a bit more fitting to my personality traits.

Same here. I'd love to live in Northern Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, or North Dakota.

I believe this thread has run its course. This topic is more suited to City vs. City, since it's more about competitive comparison than anything that would be useful to folks who are relocating. Thread closed.
