Moving to new location?

[DrkZide]

Ok so I've been tossing around the idea of moving somewhere, just not sure where. I'm in Denver now. I like the abundance of outdoor activities here and I like the snow. Girls here are pretty cute too (I like blondes lol) and from what I could tell CU is a decent school.

I used to live in California, looking at O.C. or LA and I miss the beach. Yes, I know it's expensive and I know CARB is a bitch, but aside from that, I like the environment, I love the beach and of course, girls there are cute too and more in abundance.

Second choice would be Texas, particularly Dallas or Austin. I'm not sure if I like all the flat land so much, UT seems to be a good school as well and of course, lots of pretty blondes. I heard the cities are nice and there's plenty of stuff to do as well.


What do you guys think?

I would never live in LA personally but the other two locations are nice. Austin and Boulder (Boulder especially) are outrageously liberal schools/cities as a heads up.

Austin is a great place to live and has a great college scene ... and lots and lots of beautiful ladies.. :D

Austin is cool. I live in Houston and trek up there once in awhile, definitely nice with the hill country and all that. Good partying as well.

I say move where you feel at home. Sometimes a scene change is all you need rather than a new world. You seem to like talking about LA and O.C, so maybe that makes sense. I know for me I feel at home where there is snow and hills...which we have here in CT, but I plan on moving to Vermont as I feel more at home when I go there (or the netherlands/finland if I can convince the lady :P).

I have a friend who just moved to austin and loves it though. I've heard good things about that city, but its not my cup of tea.

I couldn't live in California, mostly for political reasons. Not to mention that California hates the internal combustion engine. I been to Austin once and it was a cool place. I worked in Boulder for quite a while. It's an interesting place to say the least.

I'd vote Austin, and I'm a Sooner out of those places for 1 reason: Formula1 will be there for a decade starting in 2012... I'd love to be able to go out to the hill country and watch an F1 race, and I will. Btw, since I mentioned Austin as where you should go, can i crash on your floor one friday. lol.

That makes sense. The only thing I don't like about it is the obvious hatred of cars they have and there's no snow. I love snow, my truck will be useless in Cali since it's modified for cold weather recovery lol

TX....it's emptier without Jan and Duttch, now.

[Stealthdriver]

I visit both places for vacations often. Do it at least 4-5 times per year. I love partying in LA more, but Id rather live in Austin. LA is just so damn expensive.

[Valhallaz]

Left California decades ago and I've not missed it a bit. Never lived in Texas, so can't really say...
Lived a lot of places, visited a lot more, and where I plan to return to and stay is east Tennessee.

San Diego has all the benefits of LA/OC, weather, beaches, girls.... and now, Duttch and Jan, without all the negatives of LA, crime, smog & traffic.
And have you considered Phoenix? It's clean, the weather's nice 8 months out of the year and the Arizona State girls are no slouches either.

[DrkZide]

I had a buddy that used to live there. Too hot, the Abus (sp?) sucked; the girls ,albeit hot, were like nitrous (most should catch that analogy) and both of my vehicles are black. Although San Diego might be a good option.

[Jeremy C]

Flagstaff if you like the cold weather. I wouldn't go any further south than that in AZ (and I'm an hour from the southern border).

[Mikes2nd]

no one misses LA, smog, traffic, now cruddy economy...

[DrkZide]

Well aside from the inconveniences in life and politics. How is California? The weather? The people? Being in the Army taught be not to be so materialistic. I'm more into enjoying life rather than busting my ass to buy something years down the line. I'm happy living in a trailer and spending my days on the beach as long as my car has a garage. Beautiful scenery and beautiful women and a good education.


Now having said that. What do you guys think?

[terrets]

Id stay in Denver. Or move up in the mountains just a bit. :D

[Unknownvr4]

Louisiana!... just to throw it in there :D

[terrets]

^ewww :)

Id stay in Denver. Or move up in the mountains just a bit. :D

Im with you, Denver is one of a few places I might move to. Love the weather, city, and the people. :)

Since you said this, then I'll recommend Austin. Austin is a town divided into 3 types of people, the haves, the have nots, and the broke ass college students. The haves have all the good housing in good neighborhoods, while the other two groups fight it out over renting crappy apartments and houses. If you don't care that you can't afford a really nice house or what not, Austin has a ton of fun things to do and great nightlife.

However, if you prefer a slightly older crowd to hang with, then Dallas (Uptown area) would be a great place to rent as well. I would argue there is even more to do in Dallas, not to mention if you're a sports fan, Austin has no sports teams while Dallas has like 5. Or you could look at Addison, very similar to Uptown, in a northern suburb of Dallas. Tons of bars and hot women. :)
