[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]None of these places.  I'd look at tier 2 metros like Chicago.  Or west - east coast is really stress filled.  You can get culture in so many places these days - managing daily life in a way that won't kill you should be more a priority.  I say this as someone who LOVES big cities.  I just don't know E coast cities like NYC, Boston or DC are all that.  Boston would be the only maybe because of its proximity to major towns that's not necessarily suburbia but it's a cliquish city and I never was a big fan of Boston culture personally. [/quote]

When I think of Boston Culture I think of sports and liberalism.  I loved living in Cambridge.  To give you an idea of the culture there in the 2016 presidential election Hillary got about 46,000 votes. Trump got about 3,000 votes. The independent candidates together also got about 3,000 votes.  The surrounding expensive suburbs also vote Democrat but not as large a gap as Cambridge.

There’s no real corruption in the state since females are running it. The governor is a gay female, the lieutenant governor is female, the AG is a black female, the Boston Mayor is an Asian woman, the Cambridge mayor is a gay black female.   There’s your diversity. [/quote]

So you love living in a community that's ethnically diverse as long as people think the same way?  If so, is that really diversity?  [/quote]

What seems to be working well in Massachusetts is the top politicians are all female, not necessarily their race.

States like West Virginia and Idaho are examples of everyone being republican.  People tend to move where people have the same ideas on how to live.  [/quote]
