What is a nice country to live in (please read)

[binö]

well, florida is a big state. Most of it sucks, but the places that don't are very nice. I'd only live in 3 cities in Florida, and 2 of them are right next to each other.

i'm pretty sure no one would choose memphis over miami, unless you're too poor to live in miami.


you realize that like half of michigan moved to florida in the past 6 or 7 years, right?

fuk memphis or miama, i've been to both...I consider myself pretty well traveled been in most of the states.
and yea i'm too poor to live in miami for sure, to live as good as i do now (big house big yard a few acres of wooded lands)
and bros are ditching MI left and right, going south and west...just no money to be made.
good for the other states, cause the smart folks are fleeing, bad for michigan cause they get stuck with the poor, violent and generally stupid.

not saying that cw or db fall into this category, but it seems the ones screaming the loudest against us rural folks are the social elites who only fly over these parts on their way to staten island or beverely hills...personally i'll take a reasonable cost of living and peace of mind living my shit unlocked as opposed to gangs, high taxes, and crazy crime rates.

LOL @ putting staten island and beverely hills in the same sentence bro.

that makes your statement completely asinine

and yeah, i am one of those people. i don't really care. i don't look down upon country folk, some of them are very nice and good people. nothing wrong with being simple, but ignorance is one thing and not being around civilization drives me nuts personally. I get bored very easily.

i need beaches, a lot of good restaurants, different places to go have a drink with their own unique vibe,a place with people of like minded success and a lot of different culture.

i had my taste of "sorta" country living..at least for me, and i got over it VERY quickly

using staten island as a eastern reference point, I've met quite a few peeps over the years from the island and they all had the same sorta attitude about how awesome they were (lotta good bros though they all remind me of ronnie from jersey shore).
the similiarities between the two distant locales are a lot of people living way above their means trying to front, not everyone in bev hills is uber rich or a actor

there's no similarities dude. staten island is universally considered the trash of the tri state area. it's a running punchline

 

[cindylou]

"the folks"

 

[calveless wonder]

These rural people are good people. It's easy for some to look down on them but many times they've got the common sense that is often missing in the more sophisticated types. I personally really enjoy the rural areas of Tennessee.

explain

if by common sense, you mean that they do everything SO FUCKIN SLOW....

then yes.

and bev hills get's a lotta lol's from the surrounding counties/residents...

for different reasons.

It's still one of the most expensive housing markets in the entire US, a ton of celebrities live there and it's well known for its high end shopping.

staten island is expensive, just like an NYC burrough and there's really nice areas, but it's still staten island.

One smugness is "oh, i have so much money. fuck off peasant"

the other smugness is "I'm a douche. fuck off", regardless if rich or not.

in college i had a internship about 90 miles north of nyc...i loved it there,though i couldn't afford to live middle class on the money i make.
not sure how cop/fire bros can live in the area and live respectable.
basically would spend my paycheck in one night of going out.

they get paid more compartively. and it's not like they live in Manhattan.

they'll move to the less expensive burroughs like queens, the bronx or certain parts of jersey. Still expensive compared to 99% of the US, but it is what is.

i think NYPD cops make about $90k after 5 years on the force, not including overtime. If they're smart, they go be Suffolk County cops in long island (the highest paid cops in the country..despite it being pretty low crime).

it's still a grind (watch Brooklyn's Finest)
