Where should I move to? - Page 3

Southern Georgia. No cities. No subway. All green and trees. Barely snows.

I actually just met someone from NYC. They moved here two years ago due to the how expensive it was to live there.

guys, i found a job in santa monica. what are the pros and cons of living there?

Pro: Santa Monica Beach
Cons: traffic

I work in century city/ Beverly Hills but I live 22 miles away because of rent prices. Takes me an hour to get to work. Now santamonica rent is really pricey that's a con. Pro is very diverse and fun City. Check out westsiderentals to get an idea of rent

LA in general is an awesome city with all types of nationalities.

As far as Asian woman there out here and they don't descriminate

I forgot the OC is full of Asian women

Guys, what about Portland.

Bunch of dirty hippies but I hear it's beautiful.

What is the biggest moving factor for you? Money, culture, etc.

There are a lot of fine art and editorial artist in Portland. Private viewing parties and galleries happen often. A lot of wilderness for hiking or camping. A lot of independent stores, restaurants, theaters, etc.

If it’s between Santa Monica, CA and Portland, OR:

Portland Oregon vs. Santa Monica for cost of living. You can view a quick comparison here.

In both cities, females out number males. However, not by a large margin. In both cities people primarily work in white collar jobs. The two are similar in terms ethnic demographics.

But Santa Monica has more single people than Portland. And simply due to size, there’d be more computer science jobs in California than Oregon.

Ps: If you’re talking about Portland, Maine, ignore this post. lol

I'm not worried about cost of living because as long as I have a job in my field I'll be able to afford it.

I got turned off Santa Monica / LA due to the air pollution and heavy traffic.

I want to live somewhere surrounded by nature and where I can own a car.

Ft laurdale fl . Close to Miami , affordable , lots of grass and trees
