The best city to live in in America is...... Toronto

He said the US....Toronto's in Canada (I've heard that the taxes in Canada are a real bummer)

Karma - is it snowing already?

Not yet....but maybe next week.   Actually, winters aren't too bad here.  We just like to complain a lot.  There is really only a week or two of "bad" weather (at least in southern Michigan.  Northern Michigan is a whole different story...)

I think you need to visit more of the US .....there are plenty of "quiet" areas in the US.  But, if you only visit the "tourist" areas, you will never see them.  (Just like any country you go to).  For instance, I think that the large Amish sections of Michigan could be considered as "quiet" as can be.

Move to Canada instead. All the same conveniences without all those Americans. (j/k)

Hey, come to Montreal instead, you'll get both Europe and America in the same place.
True, though taxes are a bummer, but housing costs is the cheapest in North America. I bought my house for 65,000 CA$ (around 40,000 US$).

I also have to vote for TEXAS. I wasn't born here (originally from NY) but I got here as fast as I could.

Something to think about, when the entire east coast was in the blackout, we watched the whole thing on TV

Actually, getting back to your original choice of Boston. I can't think of a better place. A good sized city that is close to some of the most beautiful little towns you ever want to see. My wife and I have gone there on occasion. One of our most favorite areas is the Cape Ann area just north of Boston. With towns like Gloucester (America's oldest seaport), Rockport, Essex and Manchester by-the-Sea, to name just a few. And of course, south of Boston is the other wonderful cape, Cape Cod.

You would be hard pressed to find a better area in the U.S. to live.

New Hampshire & Vermont are almost the same. New England ain't bad place to be.

I agree. NE is beautful! Especially in the fall. People come from all over the country to experience thr georgous fall foliage. Also we have a lot of historical landmaks here in NE. Basketball hall of fame, Smith & wesson (revolutionary gun maker), Indian motorcycle museum, Boston Harbor. Not to mention home of the great Boston red socks, and Boston Bruins. The winters are snowing and cold, but, the rest of the year, the beautiful countryside, and all of NE's culture makes it all worth while.

It's not a competition Kona0197. Just some friendly suggestions on possible spots to settle in the U.S.

Actually, if I was to leave Canada to live in the U.S. it would be Cape Ann. (Most likely the town of Gloucester.)
