Whoever made this site must have owned real estate in Little Rock.

Had to go back & check "major metropolitan area" in addition to the middle option to get some better-sized cities.  Also I think I maybe overstated my affinity for snow.

Carlisle, PA :huh:
Minneapolis-St. Paul, MN
Duluth, MN
Albany, NY
Cleveland, OH
Cincinnati, OH
Grand Rapids, MI
Rochester, MN
Ann Arbor, MI

If I go back & add Rocky Mountains as one of my regions, Denver comes in first.  Which makes complete sense as it's about as close as you can get to my ideal city, or at least it would be if it weren't so far west.

 :hmm: I don't think Carlisle is known for its great snows.  Technically it (just barely) has a humid subtropical climate.  My dad's family is from that area, btw.

There's about 5 more Wisconsin cities on the next two pages.  I'm a little disappointed I didn't get Fargo, ND, as I've actually thought of moving there.  Or Buffalo, NY for closer to home places.  Oh well.  An interesting little quiz.

I don't think Carlisle is known for anything I look for in a city.  My dad used to go there for car shows, but I never saw anything memorable the few times I drove through.

I quite like Fargo, and have visited there numerous times, but no way I'd want to live there.

Some of those Wisconsin towns are very nice though.  Duluth / Superior looked like a dump though.

What's wrong with Fargo?  I agree, a few of the Wisconsin places do look nice.  Time to look at jobs...

Upper peninsula of Michigan has always looked gorgeous.

Too flat.  It is really, really, really flat.

I knew a guy who farmed south of Winnipeg who had a quarter section (square half-mile) with a total elevation range of 4 inches.

:yes: Hogs, on the other hand, are amusing.

:yes:

You can toss a dead body where the hogs are and every thing is taken of ...whoops I shared too much.
