All things equal, where in the US would you live?

Southern California - anywhere south of LA proper and within 3 miles from the ocean.

If XX was no object (money, schools, crime), where in the US would you want to live? In this kind of "game" I don't suspect there are always reasons for one's fantasy choice, but if you have reasons what are they?


If I had no husband kids family ties or occupational ties here I think I would live in Historic Charleston, SC, or someplace similar. Experience that southern charm, warm weather, great homestyle food...or at least that's how I picture it - amazingly I've never actually been but I swear I'd move there in a second.

OP, what a silly question. If money & school were not an issue, it would not matter so much where you live. You can move anytime, travel, get a tutor for children...

Newport Beach, Ca.

Marin County, Ca.

Manhattan -- either UWS on a side street near CP or on the UES but East of Third.

I'd have my own brownstone in Park Slope - yeah, it's kind of 80s or 90s or whatever, but love the urban fabric.

If all of North America were open, I'd have a place in Montreal for the summer and near San Diego for the winter.

Actually, modern high rise apt. in Manhattan (maybe Union Square?) with doorman etc. and then old farmhouse on the North Fork.

This is my dream and why I pinch pennies.

It is good to have dreams. I need to start pinching my pennies!

I would have a pied a terre in Pimmit Hills. Or maybe Wheaton.

Either a farmhouse in napa valley or the Mosaic District.

If we are talking anywhere . . . Southern California in the original Getty Museum just off the Pacific Coast Highway on the way out to Malibu. I would, of course, turn it back into a house. It would be living in a Tuscan Villa on the California coast.
