What city do you think has the most relaxed, leased conventional attitude toward life? This is not a "where should I live" thread; I'm posting this because I got into a debate with my brother on this topic. I was arguing for Tucson, AZ; he was arguing for Portland, OR. I'd be happy to hear what others have to say. Some factors that came up in our discussion...
- Not having to dress up for work or special occasions
- Ability to get away with dropping f-bombs at work
- Being able to go grocery shopping in your pajamas
- Not being expected to be on-time anywhere or for anything
- Relaxed gender roles
- Non-religious
- Lax laws pertaining to alcohol, drugs, tobacco, sex, nudity, gambling, and firearms
- People with a generally a happy, even-keeled, non-stressed demeanor
- Limited racism, classism, sexism, xenophobia, Islamophobia, or homophobia
Location: Central Texas. Wait, I mean South Texas. Actually, both Central and South Texas

El Paso, Texas fits your criteria perfectly, except for the non-religious category. I would categorize El Paso as moderately religious, most people are Hispanic so you are obviously going to have a lot of catholics. However, most El Pasoans aren't pushy about religion.

I was actually thinking El Paso too, but since I've only driven through I wasn't sure. Albuquerque and Billings could be some other contenders.
