Do you want to live in the city or country? Either way, why? Is there a specific place you’d like to live?

    A city. Or a small town with city level amenities and reachability. Some place where I don’t need a car for regular and even some irregular errands.

    I’m quite pleased with where I am right now, a provincial capital in NL. If I’d have to scale down, Houten looks quite promising. If I’d be forced to scale up and leave the country, the four places that pop to my mind that interest me are Freiburg (DE), Vienna (AT), Helsinki (FI) and Oslo (NO).

    I want to live in an area that has a great music scene. It has to be clean and pleasant with plenty of community engagement and friendly people. I have to be able to afford a home, food, healthcare, and some things that I and the family just want. I don’t want to be scared for myself or my transgender kids, or my wife. I don’t want to be scared of the government or the people who wanted this version of it.

    Basically, I want to live in United States that was promised to me when I was a kid. No matter where it is.

    EDIT: Or Cicely, AK.

    I’d like to leave the United States first. Someplace diverse where I can walk or use public transit, and that has clean water and air. If there’s wilderness, hiking trails, or any other kind of nature relatively close that would be pretty swell.

    I want to either live in the city. Walking to everything, choices for stuff to do, people…

    Or

    Be in a cabin near a small in the middle of nowhere. With Internet though :p

    Maybe not the answer you were looking for, but I felt like sharing. I am in a stage of life I want to live wherever I find stability, it can be anywhere.

    I’ve moved a lot searching for a better place and always found both happiness and misery in those four countries. There are problems everywhere and choosing those I actually care about makes my daily life a bit more meaningful.

    Literally anywhere without property taxes so I don’t have to earn money to own small piece of land. Just to be able to grow my crops, breed my animals and don’t care about anything. Don’t have to be big land. Just amount that I can survive without owning any money. That would be nice.

    Agent 47’s cabin. For those that don’t know, he’s the main character from the Hitman games - and yes, his crib is epic.

    I want to live here in the US in Florida, but in the timeline where Al Gore actually got all the votes counted and won. We are in “uptown” of a mid size city and it’s awesome, I don’t like living in the country but having a yard and garden is nice, and I don’t need to drive much as we are close to many amenities.

    City would be my second choice, I do enjoy living in a city, walking to bar or grocery, everything right there and so much to do.

        Crofting refers to the land ownership system which is unique to Scotland, and a croft is technically a peice of land, but I’m talking about a crofter’s dwelling. There are a huge number of these derelict centuries old stone buildings which would’ve traditionally housed both livestock and people. They often have a cow shed at a lower level connected to the main dwelling so the heat would rise from the animals.

    I want to live like on the edge of a city. Like right out side the tall buildings, small single-family homes, in a very diverse and welcoming society without bigotry.

    I’m Chinese-American, PRC is too authoritarian, USA is declining into fascism, Europe doesn’t seem to be too immigrant friendly. I don’t fucking know, this world is bullshit. I want to live in an alt-universe where republican party collapsed and we have a Progressive Party of America, and the Democratic Party, with every declining membership and support. President Sanders… etc, etc…

    Cabin in the woods near a river or lake somewhere in Alaska. I love the cold and the snow. I want big dogs. I like chipping wood for heat. I enjoy being along the evergreens.
