I will move to wherever the first person to respond suggests. Oh man that would be AWESOME
But, unrealistic I suppose.
So, I am getting antsy again. I am getting terribly sick of Minnesota and I feel I must be away from here within a year. Problem is, I have become somewhat picky.
I am from Memphis, which was too hot/steamy and far too murder-y.
I love Saint Paul, but the winters are far too long and too frigging cold. And the summers are too bloody hot!! Worst of both worlds!
The criteria:
-Unmurder-y
-Doesn’t get too hot(or else I would have moved to Austin, TX by now)
-Doesn’t get too cold
-It can snow, but the shit needs to be gone within a few days.
-Excellent public transportation (I hate driving)
-I need to be able to get a 1 br apt for less than $700 (so, I guess San Francisco is out)
-People should be at least somewhat friendly (I had a really bad experience in MA a few years ago)
-Pretty liberal (unless your town is filled with extremely open-minded conservatives…that would work)
I guess that’s really it. I just need somewhere to settle for a few years, or until I get my degree and can hightail it out of this country (at which time there will probably be another thread like this–the International Version!)
I have been reading the Seattle thread with interest, because I think that may be the ticket…or better yet, Portland OR.
But, I hate rain.
Am I too picky? Will I get any answers?
