Sigh, I got a bunch of towns around Tahoe, where I want to retire but realize the tech bros will price me out...

Without clicking NE the top choice was Seattle, which is the place we always wanted to live but never managed to do it.


I grew up in Somerset County!

I never thought about Seattle and Silver Spring having much in common before, but I guess I can see it now.

I live in the DC area and love it, but want to live in Denver long term. I'm too calm for DC but probably too uptight for Denver...however, I would LOVE the outdoor culture.


Same!

Denver fan PP here -- I love that there's a filter for air quality! When I was deciding on posts abroad, I had a spreadsheet column for air quality.

Thought this would be fun:

I live in Potomac, and once I selected for Northeast, with my other filters, I got North Potomac (#6), Ellicot City (#8) and Potomac (#14), which was oddly gratifying.
