    Lets say if money wasn't really an issue. You would be able to get a job comparable to each city's respective economies. It can be anywhere in the world. Where would it be.

    I am wondering if anyone would actually stay in Houston.

    Denver Co.

    Nice and cold. Skiing every weekend. I'd still pull for my Texans, Rockets and Astros though... :D

    I lived in Cali and came back to Houston by choice.

    BUT if I could choose anywhere, it would have to be Scottsdale, AZ....

    La Jolla, Aspen, and Austin would be the short list.

    Cali. Surf, music, nightlife, perfect weather. Second would be NY, but I hate the cold...so...

    I'm currently in Indiana right now. All y'all Houston folks should thank your lucky stars you're in Texas. I swear I never understood why people say that, but now I do...I love the Lone Star State, and it's insane how much I miss it.

    I'd live in Maui or any other nice Hawaiian spot for 2 months of the summer (all of July and most of August). Then I would live in Houston the rest of the time.

    Just don't admit that you're from Texas or else everyone there will hate you.

    I made that fatal mistake and it made my final two years of high school hell...

    if I could afford it, San Francisco. Everytime I see the weather channel and they give the national temperatures, San Francisco always has like, the best weather!!

    Other runner ups include:
    Taos
    Santa Fe
    NYC

    I've already found the place...now if I could just find a job. :(

    Austin is it for me. I hate cold weather and despise snowflakes...even the recreational kind.

    San Diego. I've only been there twice, but man, it is my favorite city. The weather, the landscape, and the ocean views. Last time I was there my cabbie driver told me "it is hot today," and the high was about 84 that day (in early Aug.) Compare that to H-town in August (95 w/ humidity) and you understand why prices are so high.

    If I had to live in a foreign city it would be Dublin, Ireland. It is a very cool, diverse place (a lot of Spanish, French, etc. students there) and a lot of good restaraunts. The weather in the summer is perfect.
