I live on Long Island. Commutable to the NYC because that is where I work.
BUT, if it were closer and commute was better...I'd love to live in Connecticut. Perfect mix of country and city for me...and lower taxes.
I lived in LA for a time and didn't love it.
I also would entertain down south in South Carolina or Chicago if we had jobs lined up.
It's depressing the COL sometimes in these parts.
Then again, I could be all talk and freak out if I left my bubble.
Re: If you didn't live where you are now....where would you like to live?

I would live in Scotland in a heartbeat if I could. I've already researched skill sets in demand there and not sure DH and I would be top priority to let move there lol. My sister is currently living in a small town in Fife but I am thinking I'd prefer right in Edinburgh.
I could also easily live somewhere on the east coast of Canada.

I'm torn between somewhere that has a beach and is normally always warm (preferably near the Tampa, FL area) or somewhere that actually experiences MORE of the seasons, maybe somewhere in New England like Vermont or Connecticut?
I live in GA, and I really do love living in the south as a general rule though.

Tho i've never been, Montana sounds like the place for me. On a ranch with wide open spaces.
ETA: or Hawaii
I don't know if i'd want to live somewhere else. I've visted a ton of places I really loved, but i've always been happy to come back to the Boston area. it just feels like home to me.
i'd like to live a little further south of the city and have a bit more yard than we do though. but we currently live right near the water and i can see the city skyline from the end of our little street.
i have friends who live in the wine country in CA and they have a really cool lifestyle, but i'm not sure i could live it. same for my friend who moved down to Cocoa Beach in florida. Amazing lifestyle, but it's not for me. i love the four seasons because the changes make me appreciate each one.
i grew up in CT and part of me misses my home town, but i know that would wear off quickly if i ever moved back. Boston has a hold on me.

Dear Son born 5/28/14
I think I'd just be a snowbird. I love Phoenix but I miss the green grassy summers of my childhood spent in Florida, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and parts of eastern Canada. I just don't want snow. I hate snow and the cold.
