I am from SoCal- I now live in NYC… this is absolutely without a doubt the best place to live while you are young… if you have not tried it, do it for at least one year… there are more intellectuals, opportunities, challenges, and more of everything in this place than anywhere I have been… It will make you a better person if you take all that it has to offer you
come to buffalo. there are some jobs, snows alot and housing is dirt cheap. and of coarse we have the buffalo bills.
Valencia southern california
SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA!!! Hot weather and hotter chicks. Lived here my whole life and wouldn’t have it any other way. Being a long way from everywhere else means that we have our own unique way of life. We don’t really have a winter which I like but some may not.

I was born in Pinehurst but my folks livedi n Fayetteville! I mvoed before I was 2 mos old, though.
I have lived in:
CT (not far from Kuz & Cressey, actually) - decent, nice weather except for the cold winters, get near a city so you can have a job.
MI - Ann Arbor; again, not bad. just stay away from my family. 
PA - Loved it there! Beautiful! But cold like CT.
TX - San Antonio and small town about an hour or so from Austin. it does have a small town mentality, but it’s not bad. School system is good, not much in the way of restaurants and stuff to do, but it does have a great State Park (Enchanted Rock) nearby and it’s an hour form San Antonio and an hour and a half from Austin. Both are fun cities, Austin is more diversified, I think. I can be a hippie in Austin and ppl don’t look at me weird. 
The state of Texas also has laws stating that breastfeeding mothers are entitled to nurse their babies anywhere they (mothers) are authorized to be. In other words, nobody is allowed to harrass a nursing mother or ask her to nurse elsewhere.
There are also laws protecting parental rights regarding vaccination, home schooling, and home birthing.
The school system in the cities is … well, we don’t intend to withdraw our 5 yr old from his kindergarten in this small town anytime soon.
NYC. If you are at the top of your game and want to hustle NYC is the place for you.
Incredible diversity of entertainment, the arts, interesting people. The hottest, smartest women in the world.
You will be overpaid for whatever career you choose, if you score a good job.
Of course we have the Yankees too.
Good luck. (Philadelphia is a close second)
I am leaning towards colorado, so many people here seem to think its a fantastic place to be, and Ive also had many friends and relatives that have lived there say its great as well.
This of course is not my final decision, all of you that have commented are giving me alot to look into. That being said I am still open to any and all suggestions. Again and again, thank you all for the information you have shared.

i have to say that Colorado was the best.
i loved it there and hope to move back when i get out in 3years.
just do me a favor and stay away from texas. that place sucks.
I live in Fukuoka city, Japan. It’s great. It’s a medium sized city, very cosmopolitan, with great food, the best beer I think I have ever found, friendly people, plenty of outdoors, good nightlife, and supposedly the most beautiful women in Japan. The city is compact with good train and bus system, not polluted by Japanese standards, and an enlightened attitude toward foreigners, although some of the US Navy boys from nearby Sasebo act like dicks on occasion.
When I was 10 years old my family relocated for two years to the Gold Coast, Australia, and that place rocks. I wouldn’t mind living there again. If you surf, maybe only Hawaii would top it.
I’m a bit of a restless soul sometimes and would like to live somewhere new, sometime in the future, but for another year or so, this place will be home.
