I like to go to concerts and sporting events. Other than that I'm kind of a homebody anymore. I'd prefer living where there's a lot of diversity and young people.
Where should I move?
- Thread starter gocy444
- Start date
Obviously lot of concerts and sports in the area - the Triangle - Duke, NC and NC State, lot of activity. PRO is within a some hours, as well. Wake is growing nicely.
Golf courses etc.
****, they're all closing in PDX. This is horrifying.
I moved from North Dakota, to Iowa, to north Texas (25 years ago). I'm still alive. What exactly is this "culture shock" in Texas that is going to kill northerners?
Seriously considering Canada. Will confirm in 5-6 days.
The only thing that I've always thought was a little weird about Texas/Texans in general is their love obsession with letting everyone know their from Texas. One of the woman that I went to high school with actually works in a shop that sells nothing but Texas memorabilia. If you're driving around in a truck with Texas license plates, I'm going to assume you're from Texas? Can you imagine seeing this in any other state and not saying WTF
With that said, it wouldn't stop me from living there.
Charlotte is pretty awesome. Good weather, variety of food/BBQ/bars downtown. Also, the airport is only 6-7 miles from downtown and is 6th busiest in the country to get pretty much anywhere.
KC is always a fun time and winters are much more palpable than Minnesota. Also, you can zoom up to Ames still for games here and there and enjoy road games at KU, KSU, OSU ect.

Not on the level of Texas, but Minnesotans LOVE to tell you how great their state is.
If I was doing Texas, I'd go to San Antonio or the Hill Country. I fell in love with Maine when we visited there, but you would have winter. K.C. - great barbecue, the Chiefs, and driving distance of ISU sports. That's a pretty good package.

Texas never lets you forget that you're in Texas
I considered moving to Minneapolis once but one of the bigger turnoffs was this idea that Minneapolis was THE place for everything. Most people I met were from there or one of the Dakotas and their sample size seemed small.
Great little city and all but it wasn't anything I needed to start over in.
We visited Portland last September. It was very nice, but the homeless are out of control there. Had breakfast at Gravy, wow.
It’s like people who drive a car, like say a Honda Civic and they put a sticker across the top of the windshield that says Civic or Honda. Used to see that all the time and thought it was redundant and dumbThe only thing that I've always thought was a little weird about Texas/Texans in general is their love obsession with letting everyone know their from Texas.
