Im thinking of moving off on my own and im doing research on places to live, theirs to many places and i cant decide where. i need some place that isnt too dangerous or to expensive any suggestions?
It depends on what your income is…do you have a job?
I suggest that you don’t move cities/countries until you have some saveings built up…enough to live on 3-4 months and cover moving expenses as well if possible.
Where do you want to live?
It is hard to give more advice with so little info. :heh:

yah i figured i needed to put more info lol but yah im saveing up everything i get 
im gonna get a job once i get back from my holiday im not to sure how much im gonna need in the end but i want to save up roughly about 10,000 or so minimum and i wont be liveing alone alone so i have some help there =D
if you’re going abroad I’d say go to a country that has a language you already know or one that is easily mastered.
Aside from that, just someplace safe where you have a reliable income (which rules out most American states where the rule ‘no job = on the street’ is king)
One thing is certain…its almost impossible to find a perfect place. Most high paying jobs are in cities which are particularly not safe. Or considering gas prices…U would prefer to live close to work so there are lots to consider when moving besides the money.
not michigan.
our economy sucks, more then other states
most areas of Utah are safe, tho recently the realty prices have had a huge spike, so it’s not as cheap as it used to be, but it’s still not like many areas in cali
economy is supposedly good too, something like a 2.5% unemployment rate, which is supposedly good…
if you like skiing it’s good as well, especially since SLC is like 30-40 min. away from the ski slopes
the biggest problem tho, it’s like 70% LDS and it takes a while for Mormons to accept ppl that don’t have their same views… they try to convert you relentlessly for the first while, it’s a lot better in SLC then in other cities of Utah though…
addin those places to my list of reseach, also how about chicago o_O?? wha do you guys thing some one was telling me it seemed like a pritty nice place to live, ive never been there has anyone here?
All I can say for sure is places I’ve lived for a year or more.
Eastern Wyoming - Hot summers, cold winters, friendly people, cheap standard of living, lots of land, but landlocked. Also the least populated state in the country. Someday I hope to move Back to Wyoming permanently.
Southern Mississippi - Hot HUMID summers, mild winters. Some leftover segregation, not enforced but it is there. Poverty stricken, and not very nice. No mountains but not landlocked… though the beaches of Mississippi suck and are filthy. I recommend you stay away from the deep south.
Oklahoma City - Super Hot Summers, cold winters. Very nice people, but landlocked. Some nice terrain. Regular yearly storms including Tornadoes. I’ve seen the after effect of tornadoes and it is nasty. Relatively cheap to live. I wouldn’t live here myself because I hate heat, but the people are nicer than anywhere else I have lived or visited.
Western Washington (state not DC!!!) - Mild winters and summers. Usually never snows in sea level towns and never gets above 90 in the summer. But if you want snow it’s only a half hour drive from most I-5 corridor cities to the Cascade mountains. Easily the most beautiful state I’ve ever lived in. Only threat is Mt. Rainier which might explode soon. The ocean is only a short drive away. Cost of living is pretty high, but we also have the highest minimum wage in the nation. Lots of hippies, and the people are horrible to each other. Traffic is a nightmare. I only live here now because my family does, but I don’t plan to stay long. It is beautiful, and the weather is excellent, but the people are just so damn mean to each other it isn’t worth it.
I’ve noticed most liberal states I’ve been too are nice as far as weather and nature, but the people are jerks. In the conservative states weather and land is not as nice, but the people sure as hell are way nicer to each other.
u can live in my house..
come to australia, brisbane
i won’t even charge u rent
If you want to raise children move to Sweden or just move there for the internets T_T
hmm, I would suggest Bay Area California. Not because I used to live there but because there is always something to do and the minimum hourly wage a single person needs is $22.50 USD an hour (that’s if you’re living really near SF or near the concord area).
yes. but it’s worth it to have so many different cultures around you. so many different types of foods you can eat. fashion is probably about 1-3 month’s behind LA but that’s fine. And they have great mall (which is one or two miles long in circumfrence) and Great America there.
