Miss my small town with actual seasons, gatherings, affordable housing and pacing. None of those things pay bills however. Also yes I just responded to your shade about people who throw shade on cities, with my personal shade on cities.

      It's because they're in a small town in the middle of nowhere so they have nothing to do besides complain on the Internet. I've come to realize that the reason why RUclips comments sections tilt so heavily towards rural/small town people is because big city people are too busy living their lives in the real world.

    My best friend moved to Lexington, KY years ago after her divorce, so I've visited up there a lot over the years. It seems like a very nice town. They have a couple of universities, and there are lots of quaint areas with early Victorians. It definitely has a small town kind of feel. And the surrounding area is beautiful. I considered moving there after I retired, but for whatever reason (laziness mostly), I stayed in Dallas.
    A woman I worked with is in Colorado Springs, and yes, it is conservative. That's mostly because the Air Force Academy is located there are lots of military and ex-military families there.

On my way to work at Like Airplane Patch west of PHX if I didn’t leave early enough I would get waylaid by the freight train which would treat me to up to a 30-40 minute delay. Ever ridden in a train car that hates flat wheels? I have. It’s jarring. Oh, one more idea… trestles. Wood, metal whatever. Longest wooden trestle? Goat Canyon, east San Diego County. It’s magnificent. I live in Winchester, Ca now. You never talk about it.

    I have been watching your videos for the longest time and I knew as I watched KCK grow along with its suburban areas that eventually Kansas would make a list. The suburbs of KCK are highly underrated and if you can get past the lack of scenery its an excellent area with relatively low crime (up until you cross into MO). Thanks, Briggs for finally giving Kansas some love!

    Left a blizzard in Colorado, flying to Green Bay. Bundled up. Transport dropped me off at hotel across from the hospital. I just had to walk across the pedestrian walkway into the main entrance of the hospital. I didn’t warm up for 6 hours (neither joking nor exaggerating). It was C-c-cold that February! They brought me back in a year or two later. Spring, I think. FanTASTic!!! They took me to a Fishing Camp just outside of town for a fish fry before I flew home. Fried fish, brown bread & butter and sliced onion. The best fish I had ever had! Still! Could not remember the name of the fish, caught only in that lake. It’s a local thing. Spent last summer in Michigan. Hoped to find it but no one knew what I was talking about. I would live in Green Bay, just for that fish! Cold is fine if you are prepared. I wasn’t. It’s a different cold than Colorado but it can be conquered. Hard Pass on Raleigh, Charlotte and Boise. I WOULD live on the Eastern half of Idaho.

      Alabama is wonderful. Huntsville is positioned perfectly for outdoor activities, from the mountains, to the beach, and river sports. There are music festivals nearby. There are also a wide variety of indoor activities. Please, if you don’t really know Alabama quit downing the state. I did that a couple decades ago, but then learned all that Alabama has to offer.

    This is valuable info. Now I can cross these cities of my list of places I would consider moving to.
    People quite often move because the city or town they currently live in has become uninhabitable. In the case of Left coast bastions of insanity such as 'Frisco and Portland, these residents themselves are no doubt partially responsible for it's present state of lawlessness, unaffordability, and disrepair. Thanks for the heads up; it's good to know where they're going.

    I moved to CO Springs last year, for only 3 months. It's not that great there.
    If you live around the Air Force base, it's a nice place. If you're in the military, it's ok. It has an awesome view of Pike's Peak, the sunshine and the summer weather is nice, but I found living there very stressful. Tons of sprawl, elevation is super high (it's even higher than the mountain towns where I'm from in western CO), and crime is pretty high in CO Springs and it continues to rise each year. While traffic is not as bad as Denver, road rage is a very common thing there!
    There are better places to live on the front range. As someone who's not even that liberal, I actually prefer Boulder way more.
