Currently Wyoming and Utah out west, and Maine and New Hampshire in the north east are drawing my eye.
I've lived in other places thanks the US Army, but when I've been a civilian I've only ever lived in different places in Kentucky. I'm tired of the lack of diversified jobs, the setting (nothing wrong with it..........just the same shit day in and day out) and the weather. I don't know if it is because I've had heat stroke before, but I absolutely have grown to hate Kentucky summers. Want to go someplace where the humidity and dewpoint don't make it feel like wearing a wet blanket all the time, or like your trying to inhale air from a vaporizer. Also, allergies. The west is way less brutal on them than the southeast is, so that is a plus. Never been to the Northeast, but assume it has the same kinda allergies that the Southeast does.
Anybody lived in these states before? Pros and Cons.
I'm not a big city guy though. Lexington was too big a place for me to live in with its close to 330,000 people. But someplace bigger than my town of 29,000 would be good. Mainly I'm looking for a place where there is more job opportunities but not a big enough place where interactions begin to feel impersonal. If such a place exist.
I used to be an avid outdoorsman back in the day. Being forced to sleep on the ground in the Army kind of took the fun out of it, BUT having something to do outdoors would be a plus.
Feel free to post other places you've lived in. Nothing is out of consideration, but aside from visiting big cities like New York or Los Angeles, I have no desire to live in such a place.
You are the homies.
