Where's your "perfect place?"

Started playing with the Find Your Spot link posted on Jones' attempt-to-find-someplace-to-live running thread (which I didn't want to detract from), and after I filled out the questionnaire it gave me this list. Places I would actually consider living are boldfaced.

Baton Rouge, La.
Little Rock, Ark.
Lafayette, La.
Honolulu
El Lay
San Diego
Alexandria, La.
Monroe, La.
The OC
Long Beach, Calif.
Las Vegas
Fayetteville, Ark.
Shreveport, La.
Oakland, Calif.
San Bernadino, Calif.
Las Cruces, N.M.
Baltimore
West Palm Beach
El Cajon, Calif.
Riverside, Calif.
Kailua-Kona, Hawaii
Portland, Ore.
Orlando
Jacksonville, Fla.

I can only assume that the Louisiana real estate industry is secretly funding that web site. : What they came up with was barely in the ballpark for me.

So what's that site list as "your spot?" Would anything on its list actually fit your definition of "your spot?"

 

Vegas was number one for me and when I get out of this industry by the start of the next spring semester at UNLV, I will be back there in grad school

 

Apparently I need to move to Wisconsin. There were seven towns there on my list.

 

You're a socialist. You'll fit right in. Few Quakers, though.

 

Their list, my "I would even consider it" places in bold:

Amarillo, Texas
Lubbock, Texas
Hampton, Va.
Wilmington, Del.
Greenville, N.C.
Rocky Mount-Stony Creek, N.C.
Lansing, Mich.
Dayton, Ohio
Great Falls, Mont.
Louisville, Ky.
Richmond, Va.
Raleigh, N.C.
Alexandria, Va.
Cedar Rapids, Iowa
New Brunswick, N.J.
St. Cloud, Minn.
Norfolk, Va.
Eden Prairie, Minn.
Reston, Va.
Greensboro, N.C.
Lincoln, Neb.
Evansville, Ind.
Durham, N.C.
Iowa City, Iowa


And none of those would even have been in my top 20.

 

I got a whole bunch of California, Louisiana and Florida places but it did pick out Eugene and Corvallis, Oregon. I figure either one of those would be pretty cool.

 

Here are mine:

Norfolk, Va.
Hampton, Va.
Rocky Mount-Stony Creek, N.C.
Charlotte, N.C.
Fort Worth, Texas
Oklahoma City, Okla.
Virginia Beach, Va.
Greenville, N.C.
Wilmington, N.C.
Richmond, Va. (that crime-infested shit hole? No thanks.)
Memphis, Tenn.
El Paso, Texas
Durham, N.C. (*PUKE*)
Raleigh, N.C.
Houston, Texas
Augusta, Ga.
Nashville, Tenn.
Beaumont, Texas
Greensboro, N.C.
Chapel Hill, N.C.
Port Arthur, Texas
Brownsville, Taxas
Hattiesburg, Miss.
Tampa, Fla.

So much for staying in my current region...

 

Charlotte, N.C.
Norfolk, Va.
Chesapeake-Virginia Beach, Va.
Baltimore
Oklahoma City, Okla.
El Paso, Texas
Bergen-Passaic, N.J.
Tucson, Ariz.
Nashville, Tenn.
Dallas
Fort Worth, Texas
Augusta, Ga.
Atlanta
Memphis, Tenn.
Raleigh, N.C.
St. Louis
Durham, N.C.
Phoenix
Chapel Hill, N.C.
Hampton, Va.
Greenville, N.C.
Cincinnati
San Diego
Orange County, Calif.

 

I was the one who posted that on Jones' thread.

I've played with that site for a few months now. Some questions really throw off the results. There are a few towns in Colorado that really interest me, but no Colorado locations show up on my list. I'm guessing because I picked the answer about enjoying hot summers and humidity not bothering me.

 

Knoxville, Tenn.
Cincinnati
Charleston, S.C.
Norfolk, Va.
Jacksonville, Fla.
Houston
Little Rock, Ark.
Gainesville, Fla.
Biloxi, Miss.
Bloomington, Ind.
Tallahassee, Fla.
Greenville, S.C.
Nashville, Tenn.
Roanoke, Va.
Johnson City, Tenn.
Cleveland
Orlando, Fla.
Baton Rouge, La.
Chattanooga, Tenn.
Augusta, Ga.
Chesapeake, Va.
Asheville, N.C.
Charleston, W.Va.
Fayetteville, Ark.

Apparently I should be living in Tennessee or Virginia.

 

Kenosha welcomes you.

 

How could Johnson City come up as anyone's "perfect place?" That town is such a shithole.
