I just finished a Ba degree, and I'm contemplating moving to the U.S. I also want to start my own business. and I want to move because I want a change of pace. I need help finding a location.
Things to consider:
I have no children, Im in my mid twenties, I am a single female. I love big cities like New York, Toronto, Chicago, and even San Francisco.... however, I am curious to other places as well.I know that I look for everything a big city has to offer, but Im also looking for a safe, multi-cultural, low cost for housing, safe place to raise children, and all the perks of city living. If there is a beach close by, even better because I like to do many activities such as biking, hiking and camping.
Im excited to start a new chapter in my life and the town that I currently live in is no longer up to my expectations.
Im open to anywhere on the map but that's what Im looking for!!Can anyone help?..I'd love some suggestions.
Pittsburgh has everything that you are looking for except the beach. It's a few hours to the MD or NJ shoreline. However, there are plenty of parks and forests in the area that will offer biking, hiking and camping. The job market there is better than most in the USA right now.
San Diego fits the bill except the housing cost are insane. Also the gang and homeless problems are unbearable. I got the heck out of there and moved to Montana.
Austin is a good suggestion. It has the vibrancy of a large city, but with much lower costs.
As for major (giant) cities, Philadelphia, Houston, and Atlanta are probably the most affordable (NYC, Boston, San Francisco, LA, Chicago, San Diego, etc. are all going to be expensive).
Minneapolis is nice because it doesn't overwhelm your senses, yet has everything that cities of its size (and of some that are larger) should have. It is safe, and diverse. Housing isn't cheap, but it is far from other cities of its class. The city is noted for its extensive park system, and the culture here is very orientated toward nature. There aren't the beaches, but lakes abound (even in the core of the city) and hiking, biking and camping are ubiquitous here. Minneapolis is also pretty conducive to business. The population is educated and the economy is diversified. I would also suggest places like Pittsburgh, Kansas City and Denver.
