So far, I have found California to be a place where I thought I could move to.
My experience is limited to Northern California, if that means anything to anyone.
Silicon Valley and San Francisco and as far south as Carmel, Monterrey, and Pebble Beach.
States that I've been to:
New York - mostly Western and UpState
Pennsylvania - driven most of it.
Maine - southern coast
Nevada - Vegas and Laughlin
Arizona - on the Nevada border at Hoover Dam and Laughlin. So, pretty much Nevada. :P
Texas - Dallas
North Carolina - Raleigh
Minnesota - Minnetonka
Florida - Orlando, Hollywood, and Miami
Massachusetts - Boston, Billerica
I've had stops in other states during flights, but I don't count those in evaluating them.
I've also driven through some to get to those on my list. I don't include those for similar reasons.
