Nurses what is your favorite state and why?

[Blackheartednurse]

If you had a choice to live in any state (can be more than one) which one would you considered moving to?

I personally always look at the climate (must be either the mountains or seas or ocean). I give my vote to Colorado although there are few more that I like. The reason I choose Colorado is that I love mountains,people are super friendly there the only downfall is that it tends to be an expensive state

As someone who grew up in Texas, I can vouch for the great things mentioned about the Lone Star state. I loved Texas and if I had to move from northern Nevada, it would be back to Houston or Austin. The cost of living is so much less than where I am currently, yet I would make the same amount of money. I loved the great food, the diverse culture, the friendly people, the family friendly neighborhoods, and all the lush greenery (things tend to be brown by early summer up here in northern NV). What I don't miss are the huge cockroaches, the mosquitos, fleas, and fire ants. We don't have those up here and I love not having to dip the cats or spend the summer bathed in OFF.

I was born and raised in Oregon, then moved to CO, OH and GA and I have family in CA and I've been to many other states visiting relatives and friends.

I miss the PNW, and hope to relocate back some day preferably to southern or central OR. I miss everything. Fresh Salmon and Halibut, the wind swept long beaches, the mountains, the high plains,desert the climate and well just everything. I hope to spend my remaining time there. Soooo if anyone likes NE Georgia I have 10 acres for sale at a reduced price so just send me a private message and I'll give you the details ;)

I LOVE Oregon, especially Silver Creek Falls. I hope that's the name LOL. And the coast there, I spent many of summers in Salem and visit often.

This is a very tough question.

Born and raised in New Jersey and I often go back to visit family

Lived in Texas...Austin is a very hip city....not that expensive at all and close to everything

San Antonio is beautful with the Riverwalk and the cultural attactions

I now live in California (SoCal). Southern California has nice weather, usually nice air quality (except for summer smog) and nice living.

I would have to say California....Nice living, nice transportation, nice income.....

Nowhere is gonna be perfect....home is where the heart is. No matter where I go, New Jersey will be my roots. Nowhere else on earth can you find Taylor Ham Sandwhich, and Poland Spring Water.
