[quote=Anonymous]We've lived lots of places over the last 20 years. I find the positive in each place. Every place has its drawbacks. Instead of focusing on bad snow removal and horrible traffic here, focus on the variety of restaurants, the museums, the Cherry Blossom festival... I don't like the humidity, but I love the 4 seasons (don't get that in So Cal), and the green trees (don't get that in west Texas). Like others, it has taken me a while to make friends. Been here 4 1/2 years. Neighbors in our last neighborhood with like-aged kids seemed bent on only networking. Not our style. We moved to a different neighborhood, and within a month I met most of my neighbors. They are all friendly. Some are older retirees, some are younger with kids like me. We just don't wave to each other getting in and out of the car - we stop and talk. So I think some of it depends on the neighborhood, and sometimes you have to make the effort yourself to meet people.[/quote]
