Living in America




A national study released by the Pew Research Center today found that nearly half of Americans would like to live someplace else. Most people who live in cities said they'd rather live someplace else. Denver, CO was the top choice amongst American cities. San Diego and Seattle also ranked high among the nation's largest 30 metropolitan areas.

How come nobody ever cites a high desire to live in places like Newark, NJ, Detroit,MI, Fort Worth, TX, Driggs, Idaho, Fargo, ND, or Topeka, KS?

  1. Denver? Really?

    I read a study that half of Americans want to follow you around in a van filled with flowers, jewelry, lingerie, scrumptious deserts and martinis. Maybe I wrote the report, and maybe I didn't.

  2. I suspect that the relationship Jackie boy notes is spurious.

    In other words, I suspect that the desire to follow AG around etc., etc., is NOT tied to being American.

  3. For instance, I would like to live in a country that had moved out of the 19th century socially and sexually...
