In what City do you currently live and in what other cities would you ever be willing to consider live?
Please comment on your preferences if you are willing.

How do you think your peers, friends, etc would list cities where they would consider living?


Note - I wasn't able to set the pole up so it is possible to rank #1, #2, etc, so if you have an opinion on that please just write it as a comment.

Is this for a class or research, or is this for curiosity?

Have you seen FindYourSpot.com? Pretty interesting site.

Among Texas cities:

Fort Worth (my hometown), Austin (where I currently live), or Dallas. [too close to call, i like them all for different reasons]

However, my next move will probably/hopefully be up north for work &/or grad school. Here is my official top 10 list in order of preference:

1. New York City
2. Boston
3. Philadelphia
4. Washington, DC
5. Chicago
6. Baltimore
7. Pittsburgh
8. St. Louis
9. Charleston, SC
10. Seattle

I'll never move up north again. Once you live without snow/ice related headaches it is hard to go back. I'm considering Phoenix and Las Vegas only if/when I decide to move.

I live in Fort Worth.

I would consider moving. To Benbrook. rotflmao.gif


My wife informs me that if we win the lottery, she would like to live in San Diego.
