I lived in the mid west for a very long time and a long time in the Minneapolis area. i have lived a number of years in the south and was born and reared in the northeast. By far Minneapolis area is the best place i ever lived. It is a very vibrant area, clean, progressive , an intelligent community excellent standard/quality of living/life. The winter carnival is a feat to be hold. major league in football, baseball, hockey, basketball along with college sports. It takes three days to shop all of the Mall of America. Why did i leave? Why does anyone retire to Florida?
Minneapolis has been rated the #1 city in the country despite the so called cold winters. Its really hot here and then the winters can be cold. I have never heard one person who has been to the Twin cities say a bad thing about it , except its cold but weather is a relative thing as respect individuals. |

The best state is a state-of-mind and it follows you wherever you go.

Best five places to retire on $100 a day (36,500 yr.).
Pittsburg, Pa., San Antonio, Tx., Omaha, Ne., Grand Junction, Co., Gainesville, FL. AARP magazine September 2012. I am only posting this to say that in the last couple of years there are many So called Best Places to live, work and/or retire. One thing in common---all different. Bottom line---I take little stock in them. Your health, income, hobbies and family responsibility have much to do with where you work/retire. That said---these best places to live surveys are interesting and do provide some information for those who contemplate is it best to stay or move when you retire. For many, The Villages is the best place to live.

I lived in Oahu a couple of years and it's nice if you're loaded. My wife was there for grad school and our 400 sf apartment on University Ave. might as well have been in Omaha, since it had about the same amount of scenic splendor. Everything is also very expensive; going to the grocery store was painful. I lived in far northern MN and ND and was very happy in both places. Now there's your peace and quiet. |

If I liked snow and cold, MN would be my choice. I would live in Minneapolis and have a cabin somewhere in the Northwoods, with a huge fireplace.
