If I Were to Move…<\/strong>
<\/strong>
I’ve made a random list of criteria for an ideal place to live (numbered, but in random order of importance):<\/p>\n

1. Has forests and decent rainfall, yet is close to bodies of water.
2. Has seasons (preferably mini-seasons such as in the Pacific Northwest where the summers\/winters aren’t as harsh as on the East Coast).
3. West of the Mississippi
4. Very intelligent and open-minded population
5. Low poverty\/unemployment level
6. Low crime
7. Strong and diverse culinary sampling
8. Diverse population
9. Community-, family-oriented atmosphere
10. Good venues for live music
11. Has an NBA basketball team
12. Good gyms
13. Good 90s music radio station
14. Good hip hop radio station
15. Minimal traffic\/commute to work
16. Diverse religious background
17. Strong artistic community
18. Where my future life partner resides<\/p>\n

If you guys have any recommendations, let me know. I have some free Southwest vouchers so I’m going to be checking out cities. I already know that I love Seattle.<\/p>\n

This was important to me…that people be educated. Ignorance breeds small-mindedness and at the very least, I prefer that the people who make up the personality of a city be educated:<\/p>\n

Of that list, places I’m willing to consider:<\/p>\n

1. Seattle
2. Austin
3. Albuquerque
4. Portland
5. San Diego
6. Denver<\/p>\n

But in honesty, I don’t think I have the guts to move. But in an ideal situation, I would love to rent out my place, quit my job and just live nomadically while I can since I’m still young and have limited responsibilities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
