Poll of the Day > If you had to choose to live in one of the following cities, which would pick?

(+) Yeah! (+)

and no you cant stay where you live now. It all burned down

San Diego, although I'd do it in protest.
---

San diego, easy

My second favorite city after seattle.

It is super expensive down there, though

I'll take my chances in the wasteland.

San Diego. Its a decent place. Better weather than where Im at now. No snow. And it isnt in Missouri. Ive been to Missouri. Its a hellish wasteland full of mutants and Cardinals fans.

Cardinals Fans... ugh

Definitely San Diego. I actually relocated to the city because of a job opportunity. And while I miss family and friends in NYC, def enjoying life here so far.

2 flyover cities and an overrated city.

Can I not?

This...and yea, I heard San Diego is rather expensive to live.

And please, not St. Louis...it's pretty much the hellhole of the Midwest (esp. East Saint Louis) so if you wanna stay in the Midwest pick another city (Cin. Cleveland, hell, even Detroit)...

Columbus OH is the smallest of the 3, so that. Plus my irrational hatred of Pennsylvania would at least be somewhat justified.

Well, technically St Louis is the smallest "city", but the metro area is probably the biggest which is really what matters when you have to commute.

No interest in living in two of those states. San Diego easily
---

Id kill myself if i had to live in Ohio or Missouri.
---

I used to live in carlsbad by san diego and it was nice.
---

Tokyo
---

I hate California and St. Louis is an armpit, so Columbus it is.
---

San Diego.
---

I'd choose San Diego, CA. I already live in Los Angeles County, CA so a two hour drive isn't that much. I might retire in another city (assuming I can afford to retire) but I'll be hard pressed to want to move away from family and friends. 95% of my family, relatives, and friends lives around Los Angeles and are at most one hour drive away. On another note, I heard San Diego traffic is much better than that of Los Angeles.
---

California. Simply because then it'll be a lot more easy for me to visit a good online friend of mine. Other than that I have no real preference.
---

as a missouri resident..... avoid this stateblike the plague
---

Well, I'd never live in Missouri so that's out. San Diego has a lot of neat stuff in the vicinity but... California's traffic is supposedly horrible and they're constantly having issues with water, etc. I guess Columbus by process of elimination.

But St. Louis is somehow still around?
---

Those cities are way too big. I prefer my cities with less than 30k people
---

Lived in San Diego before - it was okay.

Although it's expensive as hell to live in California, I'd probably take that.
---

I have family in Columbus, so this was an easy choice.
---

If we're factoring in those places as they exist right now, I would only be able to say not San Diego. I wouldn't want to try to afford to live there.

I don't know anything about Ohio or Missouri so I couldn't pick between them without doing some research.
---

I would live on the streets in San Diego before living in the other two places. Mainly due to the food choices to be honest. Food is important to me. I mean, I'd research the other places and probably visit and try the food there, but more then likely would live in a smaller place in San Diego over a larger one in either of the other choices.

Food is life.

This is a very compelling point tbh

I do love the food there

I live in Olympia WA right now which has horrible food choices. Even Gilroy CA (small town about 30 minutes south of San Jose) had way better Asian food, and 10 orders of magnitude better mexican (I mean it was about a 50% hispanic population so yeah, really good mexican food).

I'm kinda in food purgatory here. It's not food hell (that is a future where everywhere is Taco bell), but it's a stop along the way.
---

San Diego, easily. I hate the heat, but I hate snow more. Plus, Ive actually been there and know it doesnt suck.
---

I've been to Columbus and San Diego, but not St. Louis. Columbus is a bit cheaper, maybe not as many jobs. Depends on what you're looking for.
