I'm not from the US, so I don't know how accurate this is, and I also don't know if this thing has ever been updated (I found it a long time ago), but there's this tool that might help with deciding: https://www.whereshouldilive.co/
That seems like an overly tedious way of entering your preferences. Why can't I just rank a handful of factors (cheap housing, beaches, climate, politics, diversity) and give them some weight?
You could even make the ranking of the factors in the current style ("snowy winters are [much] more important than beaches"). That would reduce the cognitive load of comparing 3 vs 3 properties many times in a row.
You can do just that. Before you begin the quiz, there's a link to skip the quiz and directly enter your preferences.
Amazing, I've missed that 🤦
I am both surprised and not that I got Denver, CO. I've been told before by someone that they initially thought I was from there the first time we met.
It said I should live in San Francisco which is interesting because I already do live there.
Well, should you live there?
I wish there were more cities in America with public transit and lots of bars. Or else I would move.
NYC public transit and nightlife is amazing. It's pretty dirty once you leave the financial district though. Unfortunately I've heard that SF is pretty dirty these days too. Is that true? It used to be my most favorite city in the world, but I haven't been back in 15+ years.
Apparently I should live in Denver - no idea if that's actually good though.
What I need is one of these for places worldwide...
I've got Washington, DC.
I got New York, but I just moved out of New York. Was born and raised there, but I don't think I'm going back.
