I’m sorry to see this has turned into such a negative discussion, but the OP did ask our opinions about living in a particular location. I gave various reasons why I would not live in a particular location (even though my intention was not to offend), and others have given reasons they would.
I think it’s pretty safe to say many of us will never agree on this topic, but at least we’ve given the OP much food for thought. I just hope all of this helps him or her make a good decision, based upon his or her particular needs.
