Some of these responses are very obvious.
Although Austin is the place in Texas I could never see myself there. And the heat, the hell with that. Cleveland to much snow.
The place that has the most appeal but it's to expensive is either Northern California, or somewhere in the Pacific North West.
My longtime neighbor moved to Whidbey Island two years ago. Her longtime boyfriend has a house there. He is ex Navy, and there is a big base there.
My Father use to go to Seattle for business frequently.
I think most people would never give up a great location they know about. That would ruin it.
Check out Sacramento. Less expensive than the Bay Area, although it might still be more than east coasters are used to. No snow, although the rain and tule fog can be oppressive in winter.
