Jacksonville, FL
Charleston, SC
Houston, TX
Orlando, FL
Memphis, TN
Knoxville, TN
West Palm Beach, FL
Miami, FL
San Antonio, TX
Nashville, TN
Austin, TX
Oklahoma City, OK
Pretty good choices. If I discount FL (been there, done that, can't take it - both the sociological and political climate), and TN (never been yet, so don't know yet), then Texas is where I belong.

By the way, since they are a marketing firm, I used fake info on my info form, including that I lived in Kookadamunga, Mass 02019 :D

I've seen lots of Charleston, SC ... weather wise, its similar to Houston... very humid, maybe one ice day a year... wonderful culture... not much of a beach, though. :)

The Okie City Chamber of Commerce might have done a little "funding" of the site for favorable placements.

Seattle was #1 for me. Not surprising, since I already knew that I would *love* to live there, in fact, I applied for a job there a few months ago but didn't get it. Ah well.
After that were Cincinnati (eh?), Knoxville (eh?), Bellingham WA, Carlisle PA (where?) and Portland (ahhh), then Olympia and Tacoma WA. Guess I should move to Washington state!!
My hometown of Charlotte, NC was #8. It's a beautiful city that I didn't fully appreciate till I was gone!
As expected, Houston did not make my list. In fact, I don't think anywhere in Texas did. I like Texas, don't get me wrong...I just wish it had cooler weather and mountains!! :lol: | | | |
