LA:Not to offend,but I rather dislike LA due to how huge/polluted/crime ridden/ghettoed/impoverished it is.Sure,not all of its bad,I like Anaheim and Santa Barbra,but other than that,yuk!Hollywood?No thanks.Pacific Ocean?Ok,the huge beaches were cool but I'll take the Atlantic warmth over the Pacific cold.

Kansas,Oklahoma,Nebraska,Louisiana,Mississippi,Alabama,Southern Georiga/Central Georiga,Missiouri,Michigan,Nebraska,Nevada,Iowa,Kentuky,Southern/Central Ohio:All these places are nice(except Nebraska)but I wouldn't live there.

In my state:Barnwell,Union,Newberry,Ninety Six,Anderson,Cherster,Blackville,Hilton Head,Sumter,Orangeburg,Red Clay:All of those places are kind of creepy.Ohh,and they're packed with red necks and poverty.

I'll live in any state in the US before I move to Canada.  Regardless of whether Hillary is president (knocks wood) or not  :D

It maybe cold up here like Hoth but I prefer Canada. We have some very nice places up here. Heck, I'm 5 mins from the largest shopping mall & indoor amusement park.   :D

800 department stores, restaurants, and specialty shops shares the same roof with a 25-ride amusement park, a full-size hockey rink, a beach with three-story water slides and surf, as well as a separate blue-water lake with a full-scale reconstruction of the Santa Maria and a flotilla of yellow submarines creeping across the bottom. And that’s just for starters. There are alligators, penguins, fountains, bands, a miniature golf course, dolphins, and an adjoining 354-room fantasy-suite hotel. When you’ve had enough, run for one of 59 exits and try to find your car in one of the 20,000 spaces.

Canada's actually a pretty nice place to live, not in the winter mind you, but in the spring and summer it's really gorgeous.

Bismarck ain't half bad :-\

But yeah, SD is so much better how?  When last I visited, people in Grand Forks were pretty damn nice.  It's just not flat enough there for me :P

I haven't really been to enough places to definitely rule anything out at this point. However I CAN decide on one: California, sorry. :-\ Earthquakes, fires, landslides, commies. :(

Las Vegas.  My wife and I went there last August and it was 116 F.  That's way too hot for me.  I went out walking around like a dumb@-- and I saw a guy stumble and nearly fall down in front of me.  I didn't want to be next, so I went into a nearby store and downed about a gallon of water before I left.  Then there was the slum area north of the strip.  Man that was depressing.  The traffic was nuts, too.  It was a fun place to visit and we had a great time, but I would not want to live there.

New Orleans, mostly because I don't care for the heat. I'd rather move up North.

Texas- no desire to be there.

The vast wasteland between the Mississippi and Las Vegas-- no wonder the Louisana Purchase was so cheap. Though I live in Iowa, I've been dying to leave.

Los Angeles- I'd be eaten alive there. I'd be like Clark Kent in that city.

The states of Mississippi and Alabama- for obvious reasons that I'm not sure are really true.

Nashville, Tennessee- I hate country music, so I'd never live there.

Missouri-- Though I absolutely love the city of St. Louis, once you leave the city limits, the further north you go on the Avenue of the Saints, the further back in time your go. Then you hit Minnesota.  ;D
