[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Unless you've been unhappy with you life for years, I can't imagine someone who lived in NY and DC wanting to move to the midwest.  I'm from a mid-szed city in another part of the country and see a big difference between the lives and interests of my friends at home.  Not saying it is better or worse, but just that I prefer DC or NY.

You can't make yourself be someone else just because deep down you know you should be focused on family, church picnics or whatever else it is yoi think is better about one of these cities.  [/quote]

I can see someone not wanting to leave NY if they liked it because there is nothing like it.  But, DC?  Most of the DC area just looks like other parts of the country, only at a much higher price.  Nothing special.    [/quote]

You haven't lived in one of these cities if you think DC is like Milwaukee.  There is a lot going on in DC and tons of history.  Movers and shakers, great school, a well educated population, public transit white people use and proximity to the beach and mountains.

Also no, DC doesn't look like other parts of the country.  Now suburbs of Virginia do, but so do suburbs of new jersey.  Virginia is not DC.  There are not dozens of Georgetowns and Logan circles across the country.  [/quote]
Logan Circle?  Really?  Maybe you need to travel more.  There are thousands of interesting and beautiful places outside the Beltway.  But, while the world turns, you can enjoy all the "movers and shakers" and the "public transit white people use."  [/quote]

There definitely are some great places and yes, I travel and have lived in quite a few cities.  That being said, I don't think DC has a similar feel as the city if Milwaukee.  The suburbs, maybe, but not DC proper.  [/quote]
