Not really sure if I will end up moving to any of these places, but you never know.

This site has me pegged. I've lived in three of these 24 cities and I've lived in suburbs of two others.

I was surprised to see places in New Mexico and Nevada, and I'm not sure where Little Rock came from...

Edit: The detail page for Danbury, CT says it's "just a short commute from New York City". 2 hours one way on Metro-North is short???

Providence, RI
New Haven, CT (where Mr. OTW is from and he's made it clear he's never going back)
Baltimore, MD
Little Rock, AR (ummm, no)
Hartford, CT
Portland, OR (I absolutely love it here)

Champaign-Urbana, IL
Danbury, CT
Frederick, MD (I have two chapter sisters living here now)
Alexandria, LA
La Crosse, WI
Albuquerque, NM
Medford, OR (I guess I have all of OR covered!)

Obviously they've never driven it - it sounds like people when they describe places as being "right outside of Boston."

Little Rock, AR
Alexandria, LA
Shreveport, LA
Fayetteville, AR (Moving there next year for law school actually!)
Eugene, OR
Corvalis, OR
Natchitoches, LA
Portland, OR
Charleston, WV
Baltimore, Maryland

I like all the Arkansas ones, although too many people get murdered in LR for my taste. And Louisiana is nice...I'm such a southern girl! I think I'd be totally out of place up north!

I'm glad Raleigh, NC was on my list since I'm moving there in a few weeks!

Damn, you have a lot of WI in there! Only places to be on your list is the Brew City...Sheboygan is for old people.

I think I have all of Arkansas and Louisiana covered, and a bit of California and Hawaii...

What's wrong with Miami? Why do some people hate it?

Well... I lived there for four years while going to UM... and I used to love it, but I can't really stand it anymore. It's just way too busy for me. Too many terrible drivers, rush hour at all hours, store employees who don't speak English... But I absolutely love Fort Lauderdale (where I live now), which is just a little bit north. It's far less hectic.

Miami, and most of Florida, just grosses me out. Miami is way too liberal/urban/ghetto for me. Many areas in Florida just remind me of the Jersey shore, and I could never live there.

Miami-Dade county has vastly different areas... yes, some are urban/ghetto, but some are very conservative as well... along with everything in-between. It all depends on where you go. What areas of Miami are you referring to??

Norfolk, Virginia
Chesapeake-Virginia Beach, Virginia
Charleston, South Carolina
Tampa, Florida
Orlando, Florida
Charlotte, North Carolina
Houston, Texas
Nashville, Tennessee
Oklahoma City, Oklahoma
Memphis, Tennessee
West Palm Beach, Florida
Louisville, Kentucky
Jacksonville, Florida
Dallas, Texas
Fort Worth, Texas
Augusta, Georgia
Knoxville, Tennessee
Atlanta, Georgia
Austin, Texas
San Antonio, Texas
Miami, Florida
Richmond, Virginia
Hampton, Virginia
Greenville, North Carolina

I dont really know. My visits to Miami have been fairly limited. I'm sure it has nice areas, but even those I doubt are my style. Mostly, Florida is just a little too pop culture for my tastes. Now West Palm is more my style, and maybe something on the panhandle. However, I'd have a tough time telling people I'm from Florida with a straight face.

These didn't really surprise me, esp. since I've been in Tx for the last several months and will hopefully be moving to Florida soon. ;)

Phoenix, Arizona
Tampa, Florida
Orlando, Florida
El Paso, Texas
Houston, Texas
Norfolk, Virginia
Jacksonville, Florida
San Antonio, Texas
Memphis, Tennessee
Fort Worth, Texas
Charleston, South Carolina
Tucson, Arizona
Austin, Texas
Augusta, Georgia
Oklahoma City, Oklahoma
Dallas, Texas
Chesapeake-Virginia Beach, Virginia
West Palm Beach, Florida
Louisville, Kentucky
Brownsville, Texas
McAllen, Texas
Charlotte, North Carolina
Nashville, Tennessee
Yuma, Arizona

Places I am not surprised:
Worcester, Massachusetts
Milwaukee, Wisconsin
Providence, Rhode Island
Danbury, Connecticut
New Haven, Connecticut
Madison, Wisconsin
Hartford, Connecticut
Sheboygan, Wisconsin
Chicago, Illinois (not surprised, lived around there my entire life)
Eau Claire, Wisconsin
Boston, Massachusetts
Cape Cod, Massachusetts
Oshkosh-Appleton/Neenah, Wisconsin
La Crosse, Wisconsin
Oak Park, Illinois (just love the Frank Lloyd Wright houses here...the website misspelled his name though)
Champaign-Urbana, Illinois (interesting, didn't go to school at U of I, but my school was pretty darn close to there)
Stamford-Norwalk, Connecticut
Kenosha, Wisconsin
Green Bay, Wisconsin
Cambridge, Massachusetts

Man, I have alot of Wisconsin and Connecticut locations. Wisconsin's ok, they just don't like Chicago drivers and I am definitely a Chicago driver.

Places I am surprised:
Bend, Oregon
Medford, Oregon
Portland, Oregon
Carson City, Nevada

Do you think Wisconsin and Connecticut have some kind of deal with this site? Almost all of mine were from one or the other. Throw in a little Washington DC for randomness and that's my list.

I was thinking the same thing about Arkansas and Louisiana, lol. I got so many results from those states, and honestly, how often do people really want to move to Arkansas or Louisiana unless they're already from there?? I was wondering if it was some kind of marketing ploy ...

My results:

Little Rock, Arkansas
Monroe, Louisiana
Shreveport-Bossier City, Louisiana
Baltimore, Maryland
Fayetteville, Arkansas
Las Cruces, New Mexico
Alexandria, Louisiana
Gaithersburg, Maryland
Sacramento, California
Hot Springs-Hot Springs Village, Arkansas
Las Vegas, Nevada
Natchitoches, Louisiana
Charleston, West Virginia
Frederick, Maryland
San Diego, California
Orange County, California
Salisbury, Maryland
Portland, Oregon
Long Beach, California
Oakland, California
Covington, Louisiana
Honolulu, Hawaii
Mountain Home/Bull Shoals, Arkansas
Cherokee Village, Arkansas

I got a good bit of Maryland and California, too, but those were much more expected ...

I got Cincinnati as my top spot. I have never been there. I got various cities in Tennessee.

Nothing in Florida or even Georgia. Probably because I put that I do NOT like really hot weather.

:cool:

Jacksonville, Florida ( I know someone moving there in the future)
Houston, Texas (I thought about this city)
Orlando, Florida
Austin, Texas
Charleston, South Carolina
Memphis, Tennessee

I'm surprised Miami, Atlanta and Houston aren't on my list. I'm not surprised about the Northeastern cities.
