[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I grew up in the DMV but have spent a good amount of time in Chicago (which I like a lot), Cleveland (meh), and [b]Denver (also liked— is that the Midwest)??[/b]

People have said the main things. But my time in those area solidified that I am an east coast person. I found the food to be pretty bad (except in Chicago, Denver was okay but more limited in options). I’m someone who likes to go out a lot and eat lots of different things, so someone who doesn’t care about a restaurant scene may not care as much. People were uniformly “nicer” but harder to get to know. People are less intense perhaps.

The biggest thing to me was the driving culture. Driving everywhere, all the time, for anything— and the most extraordinary distances (again, except for Chicago, but only in the city). People thought of nothing to drive an hour to do a basic errands. I can’t stand that— I like being able to walk my kids to school, walk to work, and walk to do most errands. So I hated that.
