And Boston's a town, not a city you chowdaheads :D.
Vancouver
Bars, sushi, culture and located near world class ski areas.
San Diego
Weather, Surf, Mexican food, Beach, close to mom, and Viva ;)
Solana Beach
what size are you talking?
Vancouver BC, Seattle, and Salt Lake all immediately come to mind because of- proximity to good skiing, cool stuff going on off hill, and pretty scenics from anywhere in the city.
Seattle is freaking expensive, Salt Lake is smoggy, and living full time in Vancouver BC might be a little challenging visa-wise. But all three are better than Vancouver, WA.
Another vote for Van, Man.
Boner City.
Amsterdam.
errrr.... NY?
(unless you can't handle it!)
;)
Although, I guess we all need to know what your criteria is... surely if skiing proximity is major criteria, Seattle or San Francisco trump NY and Boston. But for all other reasons?
Beijing.
Live like a king in an up and coming economy. Food from around the world. A fair number of odd people escaping past lives from all around the world. Pollution and constant construction, lack of rights, etc could wear on you though.
The only place I've been that I felt like I could live in for a year or more.
Or Van, BC for all the reasons listed.
Denver, since I already live in the Metro area. SLC next, because of the best skiing. Seattle or Portland after that, cause the Northwest kicks ass.
I would slit my wrists if I had to live in NYC again.
Vancouver, BC or Denver in North America
Hadn't thought too much about leaving North America, but I suppose there are other places where I could enjoy myself.
My two qualifications for a place are proximity to skiing and Ultimate Frisbee.
Vancouver, BC: duh. Visa issues of course.
Seattle, WA: The solution. Perhaps expensive and has traffic issues. Not light in the winter but whatever.
Denver, CO: So very dry and spread out. Reasonably cool other than that.
San Fran: Also cool, but impossibly expensive, insane commutes, and too far from skiing.
I already moved ~5000 miles to live there. ;)
Denver if i only had one place.
NYC if I had a place in CO that I could fly to and spend alot of time. NYC is just the shit. Once you know your way around and stuff it rules.
Agreed on Vancouver. Seattle or San Francisco would be great if the traffic wasn't so narsty, therefore Portland? Of course, it's much tougher to find a job in Portland than in the bigger places.
I'm looking for a place where I've got skiing and surfing on my doorstep and having lived here for 10 years I can tell you all, it's not London.
I think NYC sucks ass in so many ways, but then I grew up there.Quote:

somewhere in Tuscany (Italy of course) - I love Italy as a whole but Tuscany is amazing and it's in the middle so you can access Rome, or go north for the goodness of Venice + skiing further north
Vancouver - all reasons people mentioned plus great universities and canadians are just nicer people, I know because I am one ;)
Seattle - really like this city but the rain might be rough to deal with
San Fran - my favorite american city
Overall I would say somewhere in Europe above anywhere in N. America. The lifestyle, cities and people trump most anything in the US.

If you are going to live in a city, don't go to a second rate one.
Amazing how weather and traffic so often count against Seattle yet never get a mention for Vancouver. When the former is the same as and the later far worse (IMHO)
The Canadiards must have some really good P.R. people working for them.
Vancouver BC would be my second choice and I almost ended up there many years before eventually moving to Seattle.
Portland Oregon
