  1. Guessing: High property taxes, housing costs, overcrowded, rental costs, income taxes, weather, crime in some parts, food prices, traffic, air pollution in some parts.
    373
  2. Guessing: California, Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, Colorado, Nevada, Illinois, Nebraska, Utah, and Oklahoma

  3. Oh so this is the second part of a twenty part series.
    122
  4. At least that construction dude in the TN portion was wearing a hard hat when he was smashing his head against the wall.
    49
  5. Before the Internet every place was better.
    43
  6. I just want a piece of land where I can pitch a ⛺️

  7. Definitely visit SD for extended period of time. The western part is completely different from the eastern part. Winters can be brutal there, especially in the plains, which is the majority of the state. The Black Hills is more scenic, but make sure you have AWD on your car during the winter. Taxes and cost of living are much less for sure. However, you might get some Midwest nice out there. No big cities, and it could be a big culture shock relative to Bergen County. Probably less so, for a NW Sussex County resident, but even Sussex County NJ is a hop, skip, and a jump, relative to how far it is from the NYC metro area. The distances you have to travel in SD are huge. The best of luck to you and yours, and Go Jets next year and the Devils this year.

  8. Guessing: Columbus, OH, Greenville, SC, Fort Wayne, IN, Spartanburg, SC, Des Moines, IA, Omaha, NE, Lansing, MI, Chattanooga, TN, Huntsville, AL, and Tulsa, OK
    20
  9. Here first ?? Yay Guessing: NJ, NY, CT, IL, HI, OR, WA, MI, RI Didn’t guess CA or AK because I saw them
    18
  10. Leeches too.
    17
  11. Per Boise, I would be depressed too, if I had to rely on the local pay scale relative to the cost of housing.
    15
  12. Surprised CT or AZ didn’t make the list. AZ is full of transplants from CA, MI, OH, TX etc. CT, especially the SW part, is extremely status conscious.
    14
  13. LA, SF, St Louis, Memphis, LV, New Orleans, Miami, NYC, Boston, Washington DC
    14
  14. Let me guess against in no particular order: AZ, TX, NM, CA, NV, LA, IL, NY, OH, AK
    13
  15. My guesses are: LA, New Orleans, Detroit, Washington DC, Cleveland, Chicago, Baltimore, San Francisco, NYC, and Providence.
    13
  16. AZ, WV, MS, NM, SD, AR, AL, NV, HI, and LA, guessing in no particular order
    12
  17. Surprised no place in western AR or SE OK made the list. There is some great scenery there.
    12
  18. I learned that Carson City was the capitol of Nevada from a Bugs Bunny episode when it used to air on Saturday Morning cartoons
    12
  19. Wow never in my life, thought to spell it backwards.
    12
  20. Let me guess before I even watch this. 1. No substantial jobs 2. High costs of housing 3. Merchandise is overpriced 4. Winters are cold 5. Altitude 6. Attitude 7. Too many tourists 8. Too small for a Capitol city 9. Political dissent depending on your stance. 10. Roads are bad 11. Overpriced restaurants. 12. Bad parking or parking is few and far between. Hopefully I hit some. I like it there though, the weather is awesome. The scenery is hard to beat. Had a great time there in the fall of 18. Like it better than Sedona, AZ
    12
  21. Guessing in no particular order: Denver, Phoenix, Bakersfield, Los Angeles, San Bernadino, Albuquerque, Tucson, Houston, Dallas, and Detroit.
    11
  22. They will probably be in: St Louis, Memphis, Detroit, Camden, Chicago, Newark NJ, East NY, Hartford, and Philadelphia.
    11
  23. I have come across the opposite type of people, where they hail from someplace in the Adirondacks and act like they come from the rough parts of NYC.
    11
  24. Let me guess in no particular order: NY, CA, NJ, MD, MA, CT, FL, RI, IL, CO
    11
  25. Guessing: Florida, California, Mississippi, Alabama, Oklahoma, Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas, Missouri, and North Carolina. NJ, is a runner up
    11
  26. VT is nicer, but MN has more opportunities for jobs and is less expensive. VT has a huge amount of wealthy New Yorkers with second homes north of 500000-700000
    10
  27. Mogadishu
    10
  28. Guessing: Scenery, low property taxes, low housing costs, low crime, outdoor activities, water, weather is not the worst (fall is very nice, and the winters are not as cold as Minnesota), people are nice, not too far away from larger metro areas, Charleston, and quiet.

  29. As beautiful as Maine is, I would only live there if I was retired and had zero financial obligations. Coastal Maine is probably being overcrowded by Bostonians and the like, driving real estate through the roof along with those high taxes to boot. Inland Maine is probably less expensive overall. Check out Presque Isle or Rumford. Only been to Maine twice, but have spent enough time there on both visits to make that educated guess.

  30. I learned that the Grand Canyon was not in Colorado because of the Brady Bunch when it was on regular television.
    9
  31. No nearby ocean, but there is the lake of the Ozarks. No huge mountains, but there is a huge swath of rolling hills and maybe a low mountain or two in Mark Twain National Forest. The northwestern portion has the flattest topography with maybe the southern most portion of the loess hills just north of Platte City. There are much worse states out there. However, I have heard from several verbal and written sources that it is a probably one of the safest places to be during a doomsday scenario, in the sense that it is relatively less densely populated. Winters are also less severe than compared to IOWA, NEBRASKA, MINNESOTA, and SOUTH DAKOTA. They have the Chiefs, Blues, and the Tigers which is good. Unlike AZ were I live, they have water 💦 or at least more than several SW states. Like TN, it borders 8 other states, the most in the US.
    8
  32. Is Chicago going the way of Detroit, where the latter seems to be mildly improving?
    8
  33. Phoenix is even more bland and you have hotter summers there with bad air quality too. Traffic is probably worse in Phoenix. Housing is less, but the jobs pay less. Homeless problem is probably worse in Phoenix. Learned over 30 years ago, if you looked east of Denver proper, then it looks like Kansas. People that have never left the east coast (which was where I lived over 30 years ago, thought that Denver was like Georgetown, Colorado with all that fresh mountain air), however when you travel out of Kansas along 70 and into Colorado it is all rolling fields and treeless plains, right up to the city limits. It was weird seeing mileage signs for Denver and you would be in the middle of nowhere, even up to about 40 miles. However, even those eastern towns along 70 in the plains, just shy of Aurora have grown tremendously and so have housing prices. However, there are many that do not realize until they actually take a brisk run, that those flat regions are still a mile above sea level, and if you are not used to it, then you will be heaving right away.

  34. It is really not that friendly, especially to outsiders. IMO not recommended Property taxes are high too.
    8
  35. My guesses are anywhere that are remote and barron.
    8
  36. Vaiden, MS had some very friendly people when I visited.
    8
  37. Boise was nice when I visited in 2014, but it was definitely a city of haves and have nots. The place was loaded with low wage jobs amongst the ever increasing cost of real estate. Professional jobs were few and far between. Tucson is not so bad after all, lower real estate costs and much higher wages. There is also less of a dearth of professional careers. Chose the latter over the former when I left the freezing upper Midwest. VA shocked me, being number one.
    8
  38. Maine has beautiful mountains and better skiing than AZ, especially the latter.
    8
  39. So basically when Mississippi is on a worst list, there are myriad of positive undertones that go with it. Same with scenic West Virginia. Guessing my state of AZ is going to be closer to the top, but NV is definitely going to be higher.
    8
  40. When he said Salicylic Acid, I felt 10 times smarter at the time.
    8
  41. SD would be more of a honorable mention than NE.
    7
  42. I wasn’t, I live in Arizona, and I do not live in either, Scottsdale is more so though relative to Gilbert. Also Paradise Valley which borders Scottsdale is on a whole different level, look no further than Zillow.
    7
  43. Great video!! The thing that confused me was where someone trying to leave an inexpensive state would migrate to? If one were to leave the NYC area on a 100 k a year, then a state like NC or AZ would be doable, cost of living wise. I am guessing one would move from the states that have a very low minimum wage, could go where the wages are higher. In my area of the US, ever other person has left CA or IL, but it would be interesting to know where people from the impoverished areas in the Deep South migrate to. WV is a beautiful state IMO and the interstate 64 that runs through it, is one of the most scenic interstate drives rivaling that of I-70 west of Denver, Colorado. It would be interesting to know where people from WV go too.
    7
  44. Even Billy Joel moved out Hackensack, because who needs a house out in Hackensack, if that is all you get for your money. And that was back in the late 70s 😂 However I do remember the great food too.
    7
  45. Every state was incorrect. Oh well.
    7
  46. Sterling, CO, might as well be Nebraska.
    7
  47. Wow Bethel!! Things have changed since 1986.
    7
  48.  @c0t0d0s7  There are penguins 🐧 and Leopard Seals 🦭 in the waters too.
    6
  49. I am surprised ID made the list, I seriously think SD is colder.
    6
  50. Visiting Omaha for the holidays right now from Tucson, and I can actually walk around without being hit up for money from someone crawling out of the woodwork. Less stressful to get gas too in Omaha compared to Tucson. In spite of the aforementioned, I would take Tucson any day: the people are much friendlier.
    6
  51. I was surprised Oklahoma was not on the list
    6
  52. Surprised Bridgeport did not make the list or New Haven. Briggs said that you would get a free down payment if you bought a house in the latter.
    6
  53. Nowhere,IMO
    6
  54.  @thullraven1  Moved out in 1991, after living in central and western central NJ, Somerset/Hunterdon County for about 6 years, and it seemed like nothing has changed for the better.
    6
  55. Whenever I think of Indiana. I think of the 1979 movie Breaking Away and Pink Houses by John Mellencamp.
    6
  56. You do not have to only be from CA to be treated badly in Knoxville, trust me.
    6
  57. Guessing: Cost of living, crime, political conflicts, weather, traffic, job pay, marijuana, homelessness, too much sprawl in the urban areas, and too many transplants.
    6
  58. The North Rim is totally worth it IMO, but the south rim is like Grand Central Station.
    6
  59. Great video, but housing prices are inflated whether you are in Denver or Phoenix. 😂, 40 years ago I used to think Denver was in the mountains when I was a kid and lived on the east coast. Funny thing is, people still think that. It is in the high plains and if you look east, you see no mountains. The Denver area has always been an easy place to not get lost.
    6
  60. Guessing: Hartford, Springfield, Norfolk, Binghampton, Philadelphia, Providence, Newark, Rochester, Syracuse, and Buffalo.
    6
  61. Ocean, mountains, and any other type scenery is overrated.
    5
  62. IMO Sedona is too overcrowded and not fun like it used to be in the early 2000s and before. Prescott is better. However, I would never live in either. Both have seasons, but Prescott is colder overall due to elevation and is more forested. Tucson summers are about 5 to 7 degrees cooler than Phoenix, due to it being higher elevation and much less of a concrete jungle. Tucson is also close to sky islands (i,e Madera Canyon and Mount Lemon) where you can lose 15 to 25 degrees due to elevation.
    5
  63. I think I was taught math the wrong way regarding the population decline of Gary. I did not know 179 k minus 69k was a mere 110. There must have been some multiple differentiation in the calculation. 😂 Great Video
    5
  64. IL, MI, LA, NY, CA, FL, MD, DC, NJ, MA
    5
  65. I heard that in most call centers they do not let you draw or do puzzles these days, because you are in queue most of the time. I worked in one during college over 25 years ago and it was like a party. We were able to read, do homework, talk to our neighbors, and date etc. Nobody ever micromanaged you and if you showed up, they were more than ecstatic.
    5
  66. Then Flint, MI it is!!!
    5
  67. Thought the same, and less expensive too.
    5
  68. Too many rocks 🪨, Rye Beach, NH is better, IMO as long as you look eastward away from that nuke plant.
    5
  69. Let me guess in no particular order: NJ, NY, CA, VT, NE, MN, MT, CT, MD, MA, and NH. Let’s see my percentage.
    5
  70.  @audisnewbeginning8616  It is sad in AZ, they are literally letting anyone with a pulse teach here/there, depending on my location.
    5
  71. Guessing since I live there: Hot summers in the low desert, ac bills, ever increasing housing costs, crime, homelessness, drivers, roads need improvement, not too much priority is devoted to education, jobs, and an ever increasing water shortage.
    5
  72. I’d move to Finland
    5
  73. Are you a realtor? That sounded pretty good.
    5
  74. My guesses are in no particular order: Housing costs, property taxes, drivers, crowded, cost of goods, wheel tax, social class dichotomy, traffic in populated areas, political strife, earthquakes, and fires.
    5
  75. Jack White and Ted Nugent are from Detroit. The former is a big name in alternative rock today.
    5
  76.  @VictoriaGates  I should have put the 😂 after my comment. Topography is definitely a factor for me regarding a city because I enjoy outdoor activities. Luckily my region in the Southwest USA has not become ridiculously expensive. Totally agree about the bar and church factor, being the sole venues for any form of entertainment. Small cities like that could be unwelcoming to outsiders.

  77. It is just a movie, no offense

  78. burrito rustler 😂, never thought of it that way, that was truly hilarious.
    4
  79. Those are the Good ones, they can take out a rattlesnake
    4
  80. If you go near the canal- like waterways aka CAP, there will be people living under overpasses there. Usually trails will be adjacent to the waterways. Tucson has a large number of homeless people, but it is less hot than Phoenix, but not by much.
    4
  81. I feel like if you used the quadratic formula, then the data would give you the best results.
    4
  82. Well said
    4
  83. Joe Max Fpv I think driving through Kansas on I-70 is more boring than Nebraska’s I-80. Even the secondary roads are generally more boring in KS than NE
    4
  84. 😂 everything is nice in New England except for CT
    4
  85. You probably meant Long Beach Island
    4
  86. Medical care sucks here, totally agree. Doctors work from 9 to 3 here which sucks for people who actually work here. I think I trust used car salespeople more. I try to avoid doctors at all cost here. Midwest has the best in that department. Thinking about renting my house here when I retire and buying a small one in MN, WI, or UP MI
    4
  87. Guessing: Nashville, Raleigh, Huntsville, Fayetteville, Spokane, Dallas, Austin, SLC, Vegas, and Colorado Springs
    4
  88. Guessing Tucson, Pueblo, Bakersfield, San Bernardino, Albuquerque, Las Vegas, Phoenix, El Paso, Las Cruces, and Riverside.
    4
  89. Born in Stamford
    4
  90. Guessing: Boston, Philadelphia, NYC, Newark, NJ, Phoenix, LA, DC, Miami, Providence, Baltimore, Detroit, LV, Buffalo, Chirac, Denver, Dallas, Houston, Seattle, Memphis, Orlando, and SF
    4
  91. I seriously did not because no place is looking good these days, except maybe Disko Bay, Antarctica.
    4
  92. Fayetteville is nice, that first picture of it is exactly how I saw it. Knoxville is nice too and is near beautiful western North Carolina. May consider the latter in 10 years Great video
    4
  93. What about Gilligan’s Island? There are only 7 people there and they have yet to be rescued.
    4
  94. Milford, Lambertville, Frenchtown, and Chatham are all nice.
    4
  95. Anywhere that does not include NJ, NY, CT, CA, HI, or AK, which are all, for the most part, extremely expensive, high taxes, cold, or all of the above.
    4
  96. That is an excellent median teacher pay, but with all things being equal, it will not go too far in Wellesley or Newton.
    4
  97. Well I can guess what they are not: Sun Valley, Boise, Nampa, Eagle, Coure de Lane (sp), Caldwell, Moscow, Mountain Home, Idaho City, Blackfoot. If one of those gets picked, then I would seriously be surprised.
    4
  98. I always thought Canaan and North Canaan were quiet rural towns. New Canaan on the other hand, is a whole different world where 10 houses or more in the former 2 towns are equivalent to one house in the latter. Same with Sharon, the AT is near there. Used to tube down the Housatonic River too.
    4
  99. The locals in NE, call that town, Beatrice, BE AT TRISS.
    4
  100. Unless you are independently wealthy, then I would avoid Flagstaff. 500000 will get you a virtual tear down there.
    4
  101. Guessing: Bangor, Manchester, Boise, Bozeman, Fargo, Sioux Falls, Charleston, WV, Helena, Mesa, and Spokane.
    4
  102. Agreed, there is Green Country, Ouchita Mountains, Waterfalls, and the Wichita Mountains. Too many people either fly over it or only drive on I-40, and say they have been to OK
    4
  103. Guessing in no order: Indiana, Iowa, Oklahoma, Missouri, Nebraska, South Dakota, Alabama, Arkansas, Mississippi, and Ohio. Checking if I get at least half.
    4
  104. My guesses would be OK, OH, IN, MO, MS, WV, KY, KS, LA, AL, and AR
    4
  105. Somewhat agree, and I am more of the religious type. I have come across several people in my life that have no idea of Biblical history, but they regularly attend church services, kind of like a flock of sheep. Once they leave the pew and feel fulfilled, then they go about their asinine ways the other 6 days, or what have you. Therefore, I am not part of a church. Don’t like to judge either way, regarding intellect, because it is a very ephemeral thing.
    4
  106. Detroit is sounding better every day.
    4
  107. Eric Erickson I thought SD would make it, but definitely not ND because of the high demand for housing due to the high paying natural gas jobs. You would be lucky to snap a house in remote areas for less than 300 k. MN, for the most part, is a more desirable midwestern state to live in. Taxes are high and areas around the twin cities have real estate prices that are between 250k and 500 k. The are some very desirable areas in MN that are along the Mississippi River and Lake Superior that could be expensive and have similar topography to areas around the east coast. The western part of MN, is the least expensive and looks more like the Great Plains and is no stranger to wind farms and lack of any major topography (depending on your perspective). MT is expensive because there are high property taxes and there are multimillion dollar properties in the western part of the state that fetch Jackson Hole like prices. Millionaires, Billionaires, and Hollywood stars build mc mansions in the Rocky Mountains up there. Look up Flathead Lake or Big Sky, MT real estate and I am almost certain that finding a house for less than 500 k is almost nonexistent. The eastern part of MT (I.e. east of Billings) is the part of the state that is the least expensive. It is more remote, dry, and looks more like the badlands. But it still may not be too inexpensive, especially if fracking takes place there resulting in higher paying jobs and lack of housing. Sorry I was so long winded, but I just felt like writing for some reason. Now I am going to stop typing 😂.
    4
  108.  @greasesicle  lol 😂, even though I personally never lived there. However, I heard that California residents do not refer to California as Cali.
    4
  109. Nebraska is more rude than Iowa, that was based on my 15 years of living there in the mid 90 s to 2010
    4
  110. Before Florida got overrun with transplants, Marathon Florida had an awesome beach circa 1979 and 1980. Singer Island too, near WPB, circa 1989 and into the 90s Seems like all those former horseshoe shape motels were torn down to make way for the huge high rises. Jensen Beach is still nice, visited there since 1990.
    4
  111.  @dreamweaver8210 Thought the same thing.
    4
  112. Me too, or Kansas
    4
  113. I wouldn’t have revealed that location in NH. If we do get any Mass transplants here in AZ, then they are most likely less affluent. We get invaded by Californians Chicagoooooans, and maybe some people from Minnesooooooooota. I’ve been to Boston before, and I was definitely struck with a less than friendly vibe. NH people were much nicer, which is why if I ever make it back east, then I will take my business along the NH coast or ski in places like Loon or Waterville Valley.
    3
  114. Guessing: CO, ID, CA, WA, UT, OR, AZ, WY, NM, and MT

  115.  @underground9260  Tucson still is, but Phoenix is a different story.

  116. No Pink Houses by John Mellencamp

  117. Tucson , AZ real estate prices might as well be MS, AR, LA, NE, IA prices. Probably the cheapest place in the southwest. However, it could become the next hot spot if they can harness 💦
    3
  118. Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebraska, Alabama, Missouri, Texas, Arkansas, Mississippi, Indiana, and Ohio.

  119. AZ resident now, but thinking in 10 years about Grand Marais, MI or Grand Marais, MN, because I might need some water

  120. Buttzville, NJ
    3
  121. Let me guess before I watch, and I will guess the states in not any order. The states are: South Carolina, Iowa, Alabama, Louisiana, Arkansas, West Virginia, Mississippi, Missouri, Georgia, Kentucky, and Oklahoma. Let’s see my percentage.
    3
  122. Before the internet and social media, New Mexico was not that bad.
    3
  123. Whenever I drive in the Los Angeles area, I think driving around Phoenix is like driving in a one horse town.
    3
  124. Surprised Pound Ridge did not make the list.

  125. Yazoo was also the name of an early 80s electro synth band. They were known for Don’t Go and Situation.
    3
  126. You mean they? 😂
    3
  127. Maybe not to your face, but gossip is rampant in most places there, and it is rarely positive. I have seen it first hand with in-laws. South Dakota is also like that. However, it was cool to actually see Slipknot in Iowa.
    3
  128. Well I know someone from Minnesota, Virginia! Hopefully you cracked a smile on that one 🙂.

  131. It was much better in the early 90s when I lived there, about 20 miles east of Aurora off the 70. The city was more comparable to a midwestern city (Colfax in certain areas were sketchy back then) and the people in the plains that bordered the city were very nice. This was back in the day when DIA meant, “Doesn’t Include Airplanes” and Stapleton was still the predominant airport. Probably not like that anymore, but when I flew out of DIA about 5 years to Sky Harbor, I was shocked with how developed the areas were east of Aurora from the air. Checked Zillow thereafter, and nothing was under 500000, and there were huge acreages that easily topped the 1-2 million mark. But hey, it is much less expensive than Boulder. The city I leave near, for over a dozen years (Phoenix) definitely made the list, and rightfully so. Road rage is rampant, especially in the more affluent parts, and the less affluent parts are rampant with crime and homelessness. If you shop in many parts of Phoenix, make sure you not drink water, because public restrooms do not exist in the bad parts.

  132.  @ivearies4187  Tucson AZ is similar to what Denver was in 1993. Housing costs are less and so are taxes. The only thing is, it is getting inundated with Californians, but more so, from the bad areas near LA or San Bernardino. I am going to guess that the more educated Californians from affluent areas descended into Denver because the local economy has a higher proportion of white collar high tech careers. Tucson is also loaded with garbage all over the place along with homeless encampments. The freeway system also sucks too, but back in 1993 Denver had less freeways to choose from, but it was a painless commute to drive on the 70 to Denver from the east (25 less so). On a positive note Tucson, doesn’t get black ice and the people are a little more friendlier than Phoenix, and it feels more like a big town as opposed to a city, which Denver once was. Phoenix is way worse than Denver IMO, and always has been. Rudeness prevails everywhere there and will inevitably make it’s way to Tucson, if it hasn’t already.

  133. John Denver was right that he belonged in West Virginia.
    3
  134. I thought Phoenix too, and to a lesser extent, Tucson. I have met several people from Somalia and Sudan who have recently immigrated.
    3
  135. Didn’t see that coming either, nor will I ever see it.
    3
  136.  @thisorthat7626  It is like that in AZ too, and similar service jobs come with higher pay. Housing values are also lower, notwithstanding Paradise Valley, Flagstaff, Scottsdale, or Sedona.
    3
  137. They do that in AZ too, sometimes with their heads.
    3
  138. You must live in FL
    3
  139. Guessing: AZ, FL, TX, NC, SC, ID, MT, NH, VT, and CO
    3
  140. In Tucson or Phoenix I see people all the time screaming at nothing. (Not talking about the ones with earplugs while on the phone)
    3
  141. Northeastern Alabama, due to mountainous scenery within an hour of Huntsville. If I had to move a southern state.

  142. J Chis Left Hunterdon County, NJ for the same reason back in the early nineties.
    3
  143. Sounds like Nebraska’s twin sister, do not move there either. Left there years ago.

  144. Lea Pilcher The rural areas are the worst, I tried that for two years, and although it was near both Omaha and Lincoln, it was no Mayberry like you said. Luckily I worked many hours in Omaha and went school at night to ease the pain/nightmare. Iowa was slightly better, but I always got a bad vibe in SD, especially the eastern part. My only introduction to ND was Beach, ND near Roosevelt NP, but I always assumed it would be similar to SD. From my experience, some of the friendliest people I met were in eastern Colorado in the high plains region from 30 to 100 miles east of Denver. In comparison to other rural areas, people were more conversational and were less uptight towards outsiders.
    3
  145.  @PhantomQueenOne  Me too, and it is ever present.
    3
  146.  @Chris_at_Home  Fairfield County is probably much worse. Pretentiousness or outright rudeness is everywhere. Got some family there that I intentionally never communicate with, other that holidays, and even that is draining.

  148. Browns were actually making some strides
    3
  149. Raschaud Farmer I thought NY would be there too, but the southern part will bring up the average temperature, due to it being closer to the ocean. OR and WA are next to the Pacific Ocean and although they are far north, the large body of water will mitigate the severity of the winter temperatures.
    3
  150. Guessing: St Louis, Memphis, Detroit, Baltimore, Chicago, Baton Rouge, Birmingham, Philadelphia, Cleveland, and Camden.
    3
  151. Live in AZ too, and I would chose it over both FL and LA. There are many climates and topographical features here, and there are many people who think it is one big desert from corner to corner. Summers can be brutal in the desert regions, but summers in Florida (where I have visited numerous times) and Louisiana (where I travelled the entire state twice) can be brutal. In Florida, I would get horrendous headaches in the summer because of it.

  152. Vegas should be on a list for places in the USA where you are most likely to get a contact High.

  153. Boston is in Massachusetts 😂

  154.  @thullraven1  That area Sussex/Warren County is beautiful in the fall, used to hike the AT there, camp, tube, and canoe on the Delaware back in the late 80s. Great respite from the more crowded areas to the east. Jenny Jump was also a great place to camp, near Hope, NJ. There are bigger mountains where I live in the western US, but you cannot beat the greenery in the summer and the fall colors. When I used to work in Union County over 30 years ago, some of my coworkers would make long commutes from eastern PA along both 80 and 78, because real estate was about half the price back then relative to Union County. I’m sure the prices and the traffic have all increased. Even back in 2002 when I was driving on 78 just east of Bloomsbury, on a visit, I noticed that the volume was much thicker than 10 years prior (mid 1991 ish) when I lived around there. I’m sure it has gotten worse in 2023. Visited NYC in 2017, and it was kind of nice how 287 goes all the way from Edison NJ to Suffern, NY, avoiding the more congested areas. Back when I left in the early 90s it (287) ended somewhere in Morris County, not sure where.

  155. Surprised he pronounced that incorrectly since it is less than 2 hours away from his favorite PA town (Honesdale).

  156.  @NPC8087  Dessert Island had a great beach. Yahaats sp? Oregon was a great one too.

  157. Pool could also equal HOA fee/fine in AZ
    3
  158.  @phmiii  probably not a good place to be single either
    3
  159. Henderson, Nebraska is probably even whiter. Visited both.
    3
  160. Weston, MO, and Platte City, MO, IMO are the best places around KC. Check them out.
    3
  161. East Hartford, Bridgeport, New Haven are in the top 5. This is my guess before watching the video. Ok I was wrong, I did not see the town part.
    3
  162. 😂 I thought that was hysterical. (The pun)
    3
  163. From personal experience, you will be in for a major culture shock. If you even remotely like Phoenix, then I would stay put or look at another city. Live near Tucson for 8 years now and I am not a huge fan of Phoenix, but I have lived for over a decade in or near the big O, and will keep flying over it. Ironically, before Omaha, I did live in the Phoenix area.

  164. Got only 3 on this one. How about this, it sucks being an employee everywhere.

  165. Guess Georgia was not on Willie Nelson’s mind when he was looking for work.
    3
  166. So that is why some people say Mizz ur ah for Missouri.
    3
  167. Maybe St George, Utah?
    3
  168. Or Tucson

  169. Got five and I froze my arse outside of Tucson this afternoon at 8500 ft elevation.

  170. He said averages, now stop typing 😂
    3
  171. Love the “Get it, Got it, Good”, supersedes the “Stop Typing” part from the days of yore.
    3
  172. Figured out it was Winnemucca. It was not that bad compared to other rural areas I visited in other states. Ash Fork, AZ is sketchier.
    3
  173. Guessing: Houston, Detroit, Tucson, Cleveland, San Francisco, LV, LA, Chiraq, New Orleans, Birmingham.
    3
  174. Rushmore used to be awesome back in 1995, when it was rustic and you could walk right in without a huge fee. Back then I pitched a tent on the other side of it. Those days are gone
    3
  175. The first girl I dated was from a small town in Iowa, and she was extremely brilliant, and could have easily competed with those who graduated from elite schools. Back when I knew her 35 plus years ago, she told me there was nothing to do but read. Have not seen her since then, but she decided to remain in the same general area.
    3
  176. Ed Rodz Skid Row? I prefer to listen to Metallica.
    3
  177.  @valerief1231  That would have been a cool video which would make Beavis and Butthead proud. Ah heh ah heh.
    3
  178. Guessing: No or low income tax, warm weather, lower property taxes, relatively cheaper real estate, night life, gamblers paradise, what is left of Lake Mead, outdoor activities, 2 pro sports teams, and proximity to southern CA. All of them are a stretch
    3
  179. The city I live near, Tucson has a fair amount of crime. However, many of those declining Great Lakes cities have water, at least.
    3
  180. Yay I got more than 5. Almost picked West Virginia over South Dakota. After watching the video, I realized that Nebraska would not make the top ten due to the high property taxes. That is a pretty nice house in Alabama, can I pick that up for 60 k 😂?
    3
  181. Guessing: Air pollution near mining, dearth of jobs, healthcare, weather, water contamination, isolated, would not appeal to those who have liberal democratic beliefs, education, lack of nightlife for the big city folks, and the prevalence of opioid addiction.
    3
  182.  @Bmwguy2011  Out of touch ones for sure.
    3
  183. Let me guess the areas must have the following: proximity to a nuclear waste site, a former superfund site, a place that is extremely remote, an area that is extremely rundown where crime is the norm, and a venue with more than unfavorable weather.
    3
  184. I visited AC, 4 too many times, and that was back in the late 80s. It was sketchy back then, and I heard not much has changed since.
    3
  185. Coastal CA home prices are still going through the roof, while the places many west coast people are moving to, are going up as well, particularly in states like ID, UT, and CO. I seriously thought housing in CA would trend downward due to the greater out migration. Same with OR and WA
    3
  186. Surprised Nebraska made the list, because the majority of the population lives near Omaha and Lincoln, where both have a fair amount of diversity, the former, more so. BTW Malcolm X was born and lived in Omaha.
    3
  187. Try Willamantic (sp)
    3
  188. Not Tucson Arizona
    3
  189. I met someone from a rural area outside Buffalo, and they made everyone think that they were from NYC, and they tried to act all tough.
    3
  190. Guessing: Crime, lack of jobs, winter weather, bad roads, higher than average cost of living, poverty, traffic, high taxes, air quality, and not the best public transit. Last time I was there, was in the early 80s as a kid, and my guesses were from what I remembered.
    3
  191.  @stevena3871 Like that Poverty with a view. Sounds like the Prescott area.
    3
  192. I would guess, Michigan, Maine, Wisconsin, Alaska, Hawaii, Florida, California, Maryland, Virginia, and Washington. In case the 2 Great Lakes do not count, then I would add Oregon and North Carolina.
    3
  193. Guessing, NYC, LA, Miami, Phoenix, Boston, Atlanta, Dallas, Houston, DC, and Chicago.
    3
  194. IMO, Tucson, near where I live, has much more trash on the highways and streets than Phoenix. However, Tucson air quality is much better.
    3
  195. Marquette University in Michigan is where Tommy in Tommy Boy went to college for 7 years to not be a doctor.
    3
  196. Skimpy dress and a fall, not a bad combination. But again, luckily she did not get hurt.
    3
  197. I live in AZ and I plan to pick up and examine the rocks, but it is like a 6 hour drive, so not too crazy about rushing
    3
  198.  @VictoriaGates  Not too sure if my prediction is accurate, but I foresee Pueblo, CO undergoing a complete turnaround, due to the ever increasing housing costs from Denver to the CO Springs area. Also, it sits near I-25 about 45 miles south of CO Springs. The property taxes are low too. In fact, I am thinking about it myself. If you have ever been there, then you probably know, there are some very sketchy areas, but there is only one way the city can go. Also, in Albuquerque, where petroglyph National Monument sits, west of downtown, reminds me of a poor man’s metro Denver. Property taxes are low there too, and the crime is less rampant. Not sure about the former, regarding toxic people, but the latter seemed relatively friendly. Both Albuquerque and Pueblo get an extremely bad rap, but I see potential for both.
    2
  199. There are still people who think Chicago is a state.
    2
  200. Bar Harbor is awesome and so is Mt. Dessert Island. New Hope/Lambertville have great places to walk and beautiful architecture.
    2
  201. Due to inflation, I had to cut back on going to the Dollar Store to save money.
    2
  202. How about the best states to work at home 🙂
    2
  203. 🤣 totally agree. How about Wall Drug?? There is probably a sign or two for that one out there.
    2
  204. 100 dollars in Maui can buy you breakfast.
    2
  205. Surprised Sioux Falls did not make it either. However, I was very surprised Toledo made the list.
    2
  206. 34 years ago it was great
    2
  207. Or Bridgeport, CT in the Hudson Valley.
    2
  208. Guessing: Expensive housing, natural disasters, jobs do not pay enough, island sickness, homelessness, summer humidity, spam, expensive consumer goods, dangerous roads, locals may not like some of mainlander’s ways, and education.
    2
  209. I failed with under 60 percent

  210. You can still get a DUI on a non motorized bicycle. You are better off passing out in the bushes.

  213. I am seriously surprised that no one in this comment section, at least as far as I know, did not start with the refrain: I make 33000 dollars a month working part time in my home .....................................
    2
  214. I lived in Omaha for 17 years and moved to the SW USA about 10 years ago. Food scene is great, it is a diverse city, Neale Woods (Ponca Hills) is very hilly, and I unsubscribed to this channel because do not like when people talk about places they have no idea about. He is also not one to write back to his subscribers. Also, what’s the point in the stop typing crap? Isn’t that the point of having a channel. Good choice, not to subscribe, he is too negative.

  215. 900 a year, that person was cryogenically preserved in 1968, and just woke up. If not, then yes, our educational system sucks.
    2
  216.  @litehold1144  I felt like you summed up the Dog Beach area in San Diego in a nutshell. Although not as extreme in that department, I literally looked out my hotel window and saw multiple people sleeping in the bushes below.
    2
  217. If you move to Phoenix then you will be back in Minneapolis via the transplants or the snowbirds.
    2
  218. My guesses are: Memphis, Baltimore, St. Louis, Detroit, Camden, San Bernardino, Flint, East Cleveland, Jackson MS, Baton Rouge, Bakersfield, Rochester, Utica, Syracuse, East Hartford, Troy, Albuquerque, Birmingham, Pine Bluff, Bridgeport, CT and Starrett City Did a fair amount of guessing to increase the odds, because I am not sure of the size of the city.
    2
  219. That will be a huge change.
    2
  220. Patois, that is a perfect SAT or GRE word.
    2
  221. Omaha is not that friendly of a city either, and I have above average social skills. You will always be an outsider if you were not born there.
    2
  222. It is funny how the KC skyline is presented when it is probably not anywhere near any of the towns that are involved in the program. So if I am 5 years old I can move to Harmony? 😂 If you worked at Union Pacific and lived in North Platte, NE, then you would living like a king. The Tulsa option seems relatively good.
    2
  223. Cambodia, Vietnam, Laos, Uraguay, Honduras, Panama, Poland, Bolivia, Columbia, and Paraguay.
    2
  224. Guessing: VT, NH, NE, IA, ME, NC, ID UT, CO, VA, and WI
    2
  225. Not too familiar with Illinois, but I will take a few guesses: High property taxes, government corruption, severe weather in summer, northern part is cold in the winter, crime in the major cities like Chicago and Rockford, not much there scenically ( but I have seen some nice areas in the NW near the Dubuque IA area and to the south near Carbondale) and that is all I have. Congratulations to U of Illinois for that recent upset against the Badgers.
    2
  226. Thought that too
    2
  227. Guessing: NJ, NY, WA, OR, CA, MI, MD, CT, MA, and HI
    2
  228.  @corallewis3093  Or KC, Kansas
    2
  229.  @davidlandry3487 No offense, but west of MA is NY state. You probably meant Boston. Never mind RI 495, my bad
    2
  230. Totally agree about the often overlooked southern part of IN. Beautiful area!!
    2
  231. Check out Council Bluffs, 10 years ago I lived in Omaha, and saw several. God bless them though.
    2
  232. Rardd5 Good job, I used to run long distance. I never mastered the jump events.
    2
  233. Personally I chose Tucson over Co Springs back in 15, and I definitely like it better. Used to live near Denver, and Co Springs definitely has a different vibe; a more conservative one, and it was definitely safer to walk around within the town/city. If you ski or snowboard, it would probably be faster to travel to Wolf Creek, Crested Butte, or Northern NM, because I am pretty sure there are no ski areas in the CO Springs area, and making the trip to Denver along 25, and west on 70 will take forever, and once you get to the resort, it will almost always be overcrowded.
    2
  234. Never been to Asheville, but I have been to most areas on the eastern part of NC. Very familiar with CO as a state, and CO Springs. IMO, CO Springs is bipolar, it is very conservative, and it has a huge Church Influence there. The AF base is there. You look to the east and it is the high plains. If you look or go west, then you have Rocky Mountain scenery. Garden Of ………. and Pikes. Forget ski areas, they are several hours away either in traffic via Denver or more to the southwest (Purgatory, Wolf Creek, Crested Butte, or the Northern NM ones) IMO, too small, kind of boring, and you can make a 3 day jaunt there and get the idea. Very homogenous housing and commercial property (Chipotle, Starbucks, Walmart etc.). There might be a dispensary or two, Manitou Springs to the west is kind of retro. Essentially, I feel that Co Springs is doing anything and everything, not to become Denverized or like another CALIRODO. I am more on the conservative side and that is my take on it. Denver to the north has some of the worst air quality in the country and you will sit on the 25 for 2 plus hours to arrive there. I would pick Asheville on a whim. Greener, the mountains are majestic, probably more unique, the cost of living will probably be comparable to CO Springs, the local wages are probably not even close to Charlotte (work remotely), more water too, and better fall foliage. Again making guesses on Asheville, because I have never been to Asheville proper, but I have been all over eastern Tennessee and Western VA (Smoky Mountains and Blue Ridge) and it shares the same biome. Lived in the southwestern US for a long time (AZ). Definitely avoid most of CA.
    2
  235. Glad I visited in 1990
    2
  236.  @jasonhurdlow6607  Stuff like that is happening in AZ too. People from CA, Phoenix, and even Boise (where they sold their houses for huge profits) are buying them in southern AZ, especially around Tucson for cash. Meanwhile, a regular folk like me has to work like a dog to maintain myself and my roof (no pun intended).
    2
  237. But John Denver belonged in West Virginia, so it cannot be that bad.
    2
  238. In 1973 when I was like 5 all the way until about 1980, The Hamptons in NY used to be rustic and unspoiled. Glad I was able to see that. Same with the Cape in the mid 70s to about 1981
    2
  239.  @martinbarnes6853  🤣 welcome to Tucson, Arizona (Happens all the time)
    2
  240. Alabama Man was in Beavis and Butthead Do America
    2
  241. Guessing, Affordable housing, taxes, politics, the big one, homelessness, congestion, uptick in crime, cost of consumer goods sans groceries, drought, fires, and any other natural disasters that could follow as a result (I.e mudslides)
    2
  242. Fractal Geometry at it’s best.
    2
  243. Left that place 33 years ago because of that.
    2
  244. Guessing USA, France, Russia, China, Venezuela, Ukraine, Belarus, Spain, Guatemala, Haiti
    2
  245. Guessing: Omaha, Des Moines, Charlotte, Colorado Springs, Lincoln, NE, Louisville, KY, Cincinnati, OH, Dallas, TX, Oklahoma City, OK, Sioux Falls, SD
    2
  246. Douglas Landfield Which is why I left 5 years ago, and live in AZ, which has less water, lower taxes, and much more real estate appreciation.
    2
  247. These are more than guesses because I live outside of Tucson: Property crime, drugs, schools, bad roads, summer heat, jobs pay less, housing getting less affordable, traffic because of the inadequate interstate system, flooding from summer monsoons, homelessness, seasonal allergies, water is scant, road construction, and a fair amount of dangerous animals.
    2
  248. Screamin A Smith Interstate 70 west of Denver and Interstate 17 north of Phoenix to Flagstaff. 19 from Tucson to Nogales is bad too.
    2
  249. What about Luchenbach, Texas? I heard it was cool with Willie and Waylon and the boys.
    2
  250. I’m surprised that the town in West Virginia where Wrong Turn was filmed did not make the list. Gatlin, NE can also be dangerous.
    2
  251.  @orlanzo2621  Enjoy your trip to Flagstaff! I love going up there when I can. Drive safe and Happy New Year’s to you all.
    2
  252. To top it off, the jobs in Boise do not pay squat, relative to the cost of housing. I really feel bad for the locals who are eking out a living.
    2
  253. Bloomington, IN was definitely rude in the 1979 movie Breaking Away, with the cutters and the coeds.
    2
  254. West Virginia, Missouri, Arkansas, Mississippi, Louisiana, Alabama, New Mexico, Tennessee, Indiana, and Alaska.
    2
  255. Those were affordable college towns for the online university crowd 😂
    2
  256. He will be unable to do that, because such a thing would be an oxymoron.
    2
  257. The Denver rats probably migrated from California.
    2
  258.  @dantesinfernopurgatory7826  Good choice IMO. Left 33 years ago from a nice borough in Hunterdon County when I was a young adult. Too expensive and if I bought a house in that general area, a low end one, at the very best, then I would be eaten alive by property taxes.
    2
  259. I thought for sure he would have mentioned PA, because in earlier videos he went Gaga over Honesdale.
    2
  260.  @edsweeney6843  The Rapid City area would be less of a topographical shock for that, but you will definitely encounter less California transplants there. IMO that part of SD is more friendly than the majority of the flat rest of the state.
    2
  261. As far as states are concerned, North Dakota
    2
  262. Idaho, Nebraska, Alabama, Mississippi, Virginia, Oregon, Arizona, Louisiana, Tennessee, and Missouri. I really have no idea
    2
  263. Reasons to move to Nuuk would be a great video.
    2
  264. I thought exactly what you thought about KY
    2
  265. Banning, Cathedral City, Blythe, Mojave, Beaumont, Redding, Bakersfield, Ridgecrest, Indio, Arvin, and Los Centros. Hope to get one.
    2
  266.  @Asigedge  The areas near NYC, definitely, but if you go toward the western and the Northwestern part of the state, it looks like Vermont. This is coming from someone who lives over 2000 miles away from it.
    2
  267. When I think of Bangor, I think of The Langoliers, and the airport there. Never been there, but I have been to Portland and Bar Harbor.
    2
  268. I got 60 percent, I failed. Also I never knew Tennessee was a coastal state 😂.
    2
  269. When I was a kid I lived in a house that was built in 1840 and it was/is in CT, but it was haunted. So double check those older houses. Heard Castleton University costs more than 4000 per month
    2
  270. Douglas Dea Thanks, I seriously did not know that as of late. During my youth I lived in both CT and NJ in from the early seventies to about 1991, both which are still high. Massachusetts is a great state, love the Berkshires (skied all over and miss it) and the Cape. Live about 2500 miles away and there is nothing like the aforementioned.
    2
  271.  @stephenrussell5269  Back in 1991 when I visited there, I did not even know there was a prison there.
    2
  272. LIM 42 That was awesome 👏
    2
  273. Presque Isle, ME would be a good bet for you. Most of NV is isolated, but you might be living above or near radioactive waste.
    2
  274. Guessing: Sucky local job pay, winters, Expensive housing (Big Sky, Bozeman, etc.), not a liberal friendly state, not diverse, nightlife would not appeal to the cosmopolitan citifolks, dangerous roads, Ted Turner, Jane Fonda, Bill Gates, and the like own most of the open land, dangerous drivers taking advantage of unlimited speed limit, isolated, no infrastructure (very car dependent, even within the larger towns, and the ever present wind.
    2
  275. Boston for sure. New Orleans, Savannah, GA, Philadelphia, NYC, and probably most NE cities.
    2
  276.  @abgr5747  And aggressively drive to and from work probably 😀
    2
  277. Been to the Tucson Mall several times and it is definitely not in the Catalina Foothills. I do not live in the Catalina Foothills, but my suburb is safe, but the housing prices were not able to hold a candle to the one’s on this list. I think the Foothills has a remainder of a mall from days of yore which is actually in the foothills.
    2
  278. He is a switch hitter baseball-wise
    2
  279. Funny as heck

  282. Guessing: NY, NJ, NH, NE, CA, MD, WA, OR, CT, and VT

  283. Guessing: WY, MT, ID, NH, AZ, ND, AK, HI, NV and OK
    2
  284. Wow 500 k

  285. They have to be in NYC, Chicago, New Orleans, Newark, NJ, Detroit, LA, Flint, Las Vegas, Baltimore, and St Louis.
    2
  286. 😂 I almost said NV is not next to NM. AZ is no stranger to letting anyone teach whether they have a degree or not.
    2
  287. Guessing: UK, France, Canada, Australia, Thailand, South Korea, Japan, UAE, Brazil, and Mexico.
    2
  288. Loved Pennsylvania when I was a teen and I used to visit Wallenpaupak (sp). Skied several mountains in the Poconos in college and had great times. Used to visit New Hope, Pt Pleasant, and Lumberville as a young adult in the on weekends to escape the hustle a bustle of suburban NJ where I worked in the early 90s. In fact, years ago I could have bought a house in Eastern PA in order to escape the high NJ taxes in Hunterdon County where I lived at the time. My question now from AZ, and not living in that part of the country for almost 26 years, is What Happened To The Property Taxes In Eastern Pennsylvania After 2016? I Know They Increased, But Can Anyone Tell Me Why? If anyone knows I would appreciate it?
    2
  289. I was originally from the NY area, and that occurred with me from 1995 to 2010 in Omaha Nebraska. Lived in AZ since, and have flown over that state since.
    2
  290. Holo Holopainen That was a great book and movie. When I was his age, I did something similar in the early nineties, but my fate was different than the protagonist’s.
    2
  291. Holo Holopainen Worked mostly odd jobs for a period of 2 years. Switched off between the tent and the car. Hiked for miles in Rockies, The Northwestern USA, and the desert southwest. Worked a slew of temp jobs to garner cash for provisions. Usually if I slept in my car it would be at a hospital, casino, or BLM land. On several occasions, I would leave the car for weeks at a time while I trekked in remote areas on foot with my tent and gear. It was a bad time economically in the USA during the early 90s and I lost a job and felt like depressed because of it. Could not afford the NYC area and turmoil I was going through at the time. I was cautious not to sleep in unsafe urban areas out west, but preferred remote rural areas or smaller towns. My theory was that if I was going to die, it would be in the wilds. Ran out of cash 6 months into this experience, so I was always doing temp work out of necessity. Ate some vegetation like roots and placed pine needles in my unpurified water at times to get vitamin C. Gorp came in handy and was a staple. I was not too knowledgeable about edible plants at the time, so I avoided those risks. No cellphones in those days and the internet on a desktop was a seminal thing. Went to tons of libraries to read, shave, and bathe. Also was no stranger to a YMCA or two for cleaning up. For 4 months I stayed in some mountainous area in the Rockies between Nederland and Boulder CO and worked if I ran out of money or was close. Did not carry a side piece and I had no encounters, but I was not worried at the time. Being frustrated with the east coast life and feeling like I failed, prompted me to disappear. By 1995 eventually everything fell into place, but that 09 recession was no walk in the park. At the ripe old age of 44 in 2011, I had to work 1000 miles away from immediate family for 2. 5 years. However, I lived with a continuous roof over my head, unlike having to rough it like I did 20 years earlier, but it was no walk in the park either. Unlike the protagonist, I decided against eating a poisonous shoot (I think that is what it was). I was pretty bummed out during the 90 s journey, but not as severe as McCanless. I ditched my car for weeks at a time, but I went back to it and I also did not burn any cash I took with me or made along the way. The temp jobs I did were mostly factory work, multiple call centers, construction, dishwashing, bar tending, farming, and inventory. Anyhow, that is the old story in a nutshell. Stayed mostly in Oregon, Nevada, eastern California, Arizona, and Colorado. Yes, I was American then, and still am. When I retire I have mulled over moving to southern Italy, which is where my family is from.

  292. I seriously was going to make the same reply regarding those NYC schools, but then I withheld my comment because I was not certain if they fell under the public domain. When I went to college in NJ, I knew classmates that went to all three, and they barely studied for Chemistry, Biology, Physics, and Calculus exams and would pull A’s or B’s after partying the night before, while I had to spend 2 to 3 hours to get comparable grades.

  293. Luminous Winfield Check out AZ too, it has it’s downsides, but if you give it time it is fine (I.e, Oro Valley, Vail, Sahuarita, Marana, Anthem, North Phoenix, Catalina Foothills etc.)

  294. Surprised Sedona, AZ did not make the list, but then again, it is a smaller town.

  295. cribb6900 Type in North Carolina is the friendliest land (song) on you tube and you will feel better.

  296. Guessing: CA, NY, NJ, FL, MA, CO, AZ, WA, PA, and OR

  297. I live in AZ, and I have been to OK several times, and I never expected it to make the list.
    2
  298. Guessing: Charlotte, Phoenix, Dallas, Nashville, Houston, Omaha, Raleigh, Tampa, Atlanta, and NYC

  299. Guessing that one of the towns starts with a “W” and is right off interstate 80, but I cannot pronounce it, but it was kind of sketchy.
    2
  300. Omaha’s Henry Doorly is even better than Des Moines
    2
  301. Guessing: Colorado Springs, Boise, Burlington, VT, Portland, ME, Omaha, Sioux Falls, Missoula, Bozeman, definitely a NH city, and probably another ME city. Not sure how big the cities will be. May have to guess again.
    2
  302. Agree, definitely see Carlsbad on the same trip, just not Roswell a la carte.

  303. They are high in Omaha too.

  305. I thought there was no place like Nome.

  306. As an AZ resident, it is less than ok to visit. I feel like every which way I am getting gouged. My favorite beach is Ocean Beach, San Diego but I am starting notice changes that are not for the better there. A no frills hotel room there is in the high hundreds. It is less expensive for me to fly to the Port St Lucie area of Florida and stay with relatives. The beaches I frequent there are much less crowded.

  310. Yay, I got 9 out of 10

  311. Make sure you pack the bug spray in VT, or any other area in that region , because the mosquitoes and gnats are horrendous there in the summer. NH coast is nearby which is good. The skiing is much better in New England too, sans places like Killington which can get very crowded, but then again, it can take hours upon hours to drive to Copper Mountain from Denver along I-70.

  317. Coco Taveras I used to live in CT too, and moved out when I was 25, and that was over 25 years ago. I have lived in AZ for the greater part of the decade, but I have lived in Omaha, NE from the mid 90s to the 00s. My recommendation is if you are going to live anywhere in Iowa and work is a priority, then I would look at areas like Crescent, IA or Glenwood, IA. Both towns are nice and the have forested areas within the loess hills. Both are within 25 minutes from Omaha. Omaha itself, is overall, good too, but there are areas that are more prone to crime, but nothing like the worst parts of NY, Bridgeport, New Haven, and Hartford. IMO, Dubuque, IA is the most scenic town of all and it is in the northeastern part of the state near the Mississippi River. However, it is far away from anything cosmopolitan. In SD, Sioux Falls is the best bet for business opportunities, but lacks topography. It is a very safe town too, but I would be less apt to call it a city. The western part of the state, especially the Black Hills, is more interesting scenically, but the cost of living in desirable areas near Rapid City might be high relative to one’s income. However, as far as all the places I mentioned, they are not going to be even close to areas like Westport, Greenwich, New Canaan etc. Hope that helps you. Regarding Ohio and Kentucky, I am not too familiar with either of them, other than passing through and staying for a night or two. There are a few nice towns along Lake Eerie in northern Ohio near Sandusky. You can easily drive to them from CT as a first step in your relocation plan. The distance, depending on where you live in CT, is no more than 8-10 hours by car (approximately 500 miles). If you fly, then fly into Omaha Epply, and you can scout out parts of western Iowa and the Sioux Falls area. Good luck with your plans, hope that helped.

  324. Guessing: Albuquerque, Boulder, Miami, San Francisco, San José, Denver, Washington DC, Portland OR, Seattle, and Burlington, VT
    2
  325. Check out Yavapai County, Arizona, as in the Prescott area. Not as cold as Wyoming in the winter and not as hot as Phoenix in the summer. Maybe 95 at the highest. Relatively remote, but close to Flagstaff. If you get tired of the winter weather there, you can easily add 30 degrees by dropping in elevation to the northern outskirts of Phoenix. Yavapai County has some similar scenery to Wyoming, with less crime than either Phoenix or (definitely) Memphis.
    2
  326. AZ has to be on the list
    2
  327. Guessing: Grand Canyon’s south rim, Disney, Times Square, especially on New Year’s, Vail, SF, LA, New Orleans, DC, Yosemite, Nashville, and Hollywood. Been to all of them, and the crowds and/or traffic was my main reason.
    2
  328. Huey Lewis likes Tulsa and Oklahoma City.

  339. Stayed in Sea Isle back in the summer of 86, and it seemed nice back then, not sure what it is like now, since I have not been there since then, but it was nicer than Wildwood, Seaside, and the more crowded North Jersey beaches.

  340. What if they deeded you a house in the foothills or dove mountain 😂?

  341. Same here regarding the Styx song.

  346. It was -5 on the list. Or there might be a part 2
    2
  347. That was the funniest comment about that place I have heard so far. Totally agree with you. Get out if you live there. I left there 10 years ago, and the moment I hit the Colorado line, I was in heaven. Not been there since.

  350.  @ridesharegold6659  Lived in NJ years ago and finished college there. Most of those awesome schools, particularly in North Jersey are the product of those huge real estate taxes.
    2
  351. Guessing: MN nice, winter, bridges, taxes, people getting priced out, isolated, summer bugs, left leaning within a more conservative state as a whole, traffic, less than adequate public transit, and frequent road construction.
    2
  352.  @UserName-ts3sp  I know, I lived around it for 15 years of my life, but I now live in the SW USA where it is more scenic, sans the water availability. BTW, there are also wheat fields, alfalfa fields, range land, and soybean fields, not that the aforementioned makes it any more scenic, hence the term flyover country. However, IMO, the females are for the most part, very pretty, and less pretentious. Unfortunately with social media, that has all but disappeared.

  353. You are better off going STEM or nothing. At the very least, learn a trade like plumbing, HVAC, or electricity. Majoring in the LA is a one way ticket to financial ruin, unless you are a trust fund baby or you can get into your family’s hedge fund company upon graduation, and never have to use search engines like INDEED.
    2
  354. NE, KS, OK, ME, MS, AL, WV, KY, AR, MO

  355. Korn and Merle Haggard made their mark there.

  361. Even that place as a whole does not like outsiders

  362. Yee haw

  363. Guessing: Winter, Scenically boring except for Cuyahoga NP, and points along Lake Erie, Crime in the big cities, and taxes statewide. However I personally would give Ohio a 7.5 out of 10. There are much more undesirable place to live.
    1
  364. You should check out Springfield, Nebraska, it is safe there and is about 20 miles SW of Omaha. It is probably one of the safest places in the country.
    1
  365. Guessing: Too expensive, crime, homelessness, winters, traffic, pot usage, wages too low relative to housing, political infighting, bad air quality, and lack of public transportation.
    1
  366.  @cherrlyn381  Why did I chuckle at that comment? I guess, there is only one way for it to go???. It is amazing how things change as you travel southward from CO Springs along the 25. However, I read a recent article about the upward trend in the real estate market there. In the early 90s nobody wanted to live in the plains about 30 miles east of Denver, and now the housing there, if there is even any available, has gone up several 100 percent. Most of the newer housing there is north of 1 million with acreages. Watkins, Bennett, and Strasburg come to mind. I predicted that in the early 90s because of easy hwy access, land that could easily be developed, proximity to metro Denver, and the new DIA at the time.

  367. I seriously thought northern NM and the sky islands more to to the south would be more at risk than NV, and I have been to NW NV. Great video
    1
  368. Check out Weston, MO or Platte City, MO
    1
  369. Guessing, NV, WV, KY, MI, ID, MS, AL, LA, NJ, and CA
    1
  370. I did not get too many. I was surprised that 2 NE states made it, as well as MN. Regarding NE states, they have a higher acidity content in their rainfall. I was also surprised that no sunbelt states made the list (especially the SW states, with various types of skin cancers) The reason why I picked NV and ID was because of the nuclear waste disposal in the former, and the latter being downwind from it. Definitely get checked for prostate cancer after 45, if you have a family history. I possibly dodged a bullet, via surgical removal. The same with colon (both genders) if you have a family history. Luckily, I tested negative so far. If you live in any of the sunbelt states, like I do, and are outside, then dress like you are in a blizzard (meaning a stocking cap too) to avoid UV exposure. Otherwise, go outdoors after sundown or at 4 AM. Excellent video.
    1
  371. Guessing: Traffic, too many transplants, political divisiveness, hot summer weather, road quality, cost of housing in certain parts, infrastructure, tornadoes, flooding near the coastal areas due to hurricanes, high property taxes, bad healthcare

  372. Guessing: NY, CA, CO, MA, VT, OR, WA, MD, NJ, and MN

  373. Definitely did not guess AZ, where I live, but luckily I was born in CT and I also lived in NE. With all those jobs that were commensurate with those mean IQs, will probably be obsolete in the very near future, if they have not been as of late.

  417. Moscow, Russia is a better bet. There is more to do and the women under 30 are better on the eyes. Idaho-wise, I would pick Boise or the part near Spokane.

  418. Guessing: St Louis, Rochester, Detroit, Memphis, Baltimore, Gary, Flint, Syracuse, Toledo, and Hartford
    1
  419. Chevy Chase and his family in National Lampoon’s Vacation were there for less than 5 minutes. IMO, Bryce, Yellowstone, and Black Canyon of the Gunnison are all nicer, with the last one being much less crowded. However, no one seems to visit the North Rim of the Grand Canyon, which IMO, blows away the south rim, and is far less crowded. People have to explore more, but maybe not, just let them stay at the south rim.

  420. Boise for sure

  421. Guessing: WY, MT, ID, ND, SD, KS, OK, AK, IA, and AZ

  422. New Mexico, especially Albuquerque is a crappy place to drive. Omaha, Nebraska sucks even more with shitty drivers. In Denver people drive like crazy no matter what time of year, especially on the 70 coming off the front range to the western city limits. 25 is always a parking lot.

  425. Before I guess, working for someone else no matter what state you are in sucks and is dangerous physically and psychologically. Going on 28 years of it, and I have lived in 4 different states.

  432. They had nice fountains when I visited there years ago. It was actually less expensive to fly out of KC airport compared to the Omaha Epply Airport. Flew to Florida several times when I lived in Omaha and made the 180 mile drive to KC airport and saved between 150 and 200 dollars including the parking and the gas, but that was the early 2000s However, there was a lot of acreage for not much of an airport on the outskirts of the city proper. Bathrooms?? Who needs them??

  433.  @jasonpowell121  Me Southern AZ, 78 degrees today. Been away from Omaha for about a decade and I do not miss those Arctic Blasts either. Unlike Florida, AZ, where I live, does get around 40 at night, due to it’s lack of proximity to any large body of water.

  436. I’ll take a guess: Arkansas, Mississippi, Louisiana, Alabama, Missouri, West Virginia, New Mexico, Kentucky, Tennessee, and Idaho. However, I do think that the majority of people in these states would survive an apocalyptic type of disaster over someone from an affluent suburb outside of NY. The suburbanite from NY would be crying, while the “low IQ standardized test person” from my aforementioned guess list would devise some ingenious ways to survive.

  438. Did I somehow predict the future? This comment was/is on 8:17 AM PST on May 5, 2020. Stay safe everyone and I totally appreciate all the work the first responders are doing worldwide. Also, thanks to everyone that has to work with the public in any capacity. Also it irks me when people feel they have the need to protest not being able to use the beaches in CA and in FL. Liberty University (not sure if that is the correct name?) made a good choice too, putting people at risk, so students can experience the humanities within a Petri dish. Easier said than done, but mental fortitude and willpower are both extremely important these days.

  442. I was born in Stamford in the late 60s and then we moved to nearby Norwalk, and my childhood home cost a mere 55k back in 1970. Looked at it recently on Zillow, and it zestimated for 2.2 million. Never saw any of that appreciation in my pocket because we moved in 1977. The taxes also in both Stamford and Norwalk are horrendous. The taxes alone, can price a person out, let alone the cost of a house there. Spent most of my life in the Midwest and in Arizona, as just an ordinary breathing citizen.

  460. I was surprised FL was not there either. IMO, the east coast of Florida is rude. I have visited there over 100 times and you get those angry New Yorkers/NJ transplants there. Also surprised AZ did make it either, which is the state I live in. We get huge amounts of CA transplants and Chicagoans. Seen my fair share of NYers and the like too. Talking mostly about Phoenix which is where most of the population is. Tucson is more chill, for now.

  464. Yay at least I got Argentina 😅

  465. Boring, landlocked, isolated from major cities (does Omaha or Des Moines count?) summers hot, winters can be harsh, tornado alley, crime, drivers, taxes, and the schools are less than adequate.

  466. KS5040 I left Omaha in the rear view close to a decade ago. Some good memories there, but that’s it. You summed up Omaha too, except it is about 5 degrees colder on average in the winter.

  467. KS5040 Totally agree

  480. I learned something new, Benton Harbor is dangerous. I never knew that. One of my plans was to drive from Chicago to Detroit via roads that go along the Michigan and Huron lake coasts.
    1
  481. I think there are 2 Benton Harbors, one with 800 k houses and the other part with houses that are under 100k. That dichotomy blows my mind. Reminds me of NYC circa 1985

  482. There is a cool lake in Butte, MT, but I do not think it will make your skin feel too well.

  485. I failed, surprised Massachusetts did not make the list.
    1
  486. Finland anyone??

  487. Totally surprised that there was no city in North Jersey that made the list. The police there are constantly pulling people over since the beginning of time. Also, there were no east coast cities in general.

  493.  @Chris_at_Home  I don’t even FaceTime family from FF county. Too toxic and draining for me. A simple text two times a year for me. Moved years and years ago to AZ. Overall much friendlier sans Scottsdale/ Paradise Valley and the like.
    1
  494.  @wrestlerx8494  I live out in AZ, and prices have really come up, especially near the Phoenix area. I had an old friend who lives around the Hagerstown area, and the last I checked, the houses there were cheap relative to the rest of Maryland. Not too sure if that is too remote, because it is in the panhandle part of the state. It has been years since I have been to Maryland, and I have traveled all over the state, but looking at the prices anywhere near the DC area, would blow the average person’s mind. My friend seemed to like it in Hagerstown, and I have been near there in the past, especially around the tri-state area, but I would assume it has gone up too, due to DC pricing people out. He actually made the drive to suburban DC each day for work. The trees, water, and the mountain ranges in that part of the state were very nice IMO.
    1
  495.  @audisnewbeginning8616  Sorry this was meant for Wrestler X, but it could interest you. Although I have lived in Arizona for over a decade, my wife’s family lives in southwestern Iowa. After living in the Omaha area for about 15 years prior (I also used to own a house in Bennington about 15 miles northwest of downtown Omaha, where one would be unable to buy anything for less than 400 k nowadays, and the property taxes that come with it, would be through the roof, no pun intended) However, if you were to consider Iowa, we’re the taxes are much lower relative to NE, then I would recommend towns like Carson, Avoca, Shelby, Mondamin, Elk Horn, Treynor, and Logan. Each of those towns are safe and are all under an hour from Omaha. The nearby Loess hills makes some of those towns quite scenic, especially Mondamin. The landscape including the farms is quite nice. There is a region called the Loess Hills scenic byway. Check out the pictures. My absolute favorite area in Iowa is Dubuque along the Mississippi River all the way to the MN line. You will seriously think you are not in Iowa, because the far Northeast region is forested, and resembles an Eastern deciduous forest with hills overlooking the River. It is like that throughout eastern MN as well. The former area I had mentioned would be easier to secure a non remote work venue. Not too familiar with Des Moines, other than the State fair, but it does have a solid economy, and housing near the city limits, whether east, west, north, or south, can be easily accessed by either interstate 80 (East to West) or Interstate 35 (North to South) If you get a chance, visit Des Moines and head west to the Omaha area.
    1
  496.  @wrestlerx8494  Also read my description that I sent to Audi’s New Beginning regarding IA. It was meant for you, because I am very familiar with that region, and I am also noticing that things are competitive out there too, but not like MD. Caution: Omaha, Bennington, Papillon, Bellevue and Gretna NE all have huge property taxes and new construction is rampant out there. Iowa is less on property taxes, but you may have to be at least 40 minutes from Omaha proper to get a 200 k to 250 k house, but it will be unlike MD or DC style driving. Check out areas around 29 to the east, because you do not want to go west, because if you look at ariel pics of the 2011 Missouri River flood, you will see why. 20 years ago, I would have said Glenwood, IA, but even if a house came up out there nowadays, then it it would be off the market in a day. Otherwise they are building huge custom homes out there, because of the proximity to Omaha (30 minutes, easy drive) Maybe check out Red Oak, IA, it is not the greatest, and it used to get a bad rap, but I predict that housing will appreciate there, and there are still move in ready houses there for a fraction of what you would get in MD, sans the NE taxes. No I am not a realtor 😂, I am happy enough in Arizona, but sometimes I have a water addiction while living here.

  499. Hunts Point is much safer now than it was 30 years ago, I heard they have tour buses that visit there and the tourists gawk and never spend a dime on any of the local businesses there.

    1
  501. It is nice up there.
    1
  502. The closest I came was St Louis. That was an odd list, totally unexpected. I assumed people wanted to leave extremely expensive cities along with cities that are getting worse. However, during my guessing, I knew that Detroit would not make the list. My prediction is that it will be a go to destination in 2050, if I am still alive to see it.

  504. R. Pres. KC, MO, more so on the east side, will not enable you to save money, due to the high crime rate. Tulsa is a better bet IMO. Dallas could save one money who relocated from OC, California, but the days of the under 250 k houses are probably over.

  530. There is still a middle class?

  531. Small towns closer to Omaha do not care for outsiders, so I am not too sure it would be any better for one to randomly chose a small town in Western NE. The scenery is interesting in various parts, but there is at least 3 hours between the far western reaches and the front range.
    1
  532. Guessing: OK, MS, AL, UT, MT, ID, ND, KS, NE, and WV
    1
  533. My guesses in no order: winter rain, cost of living, Ca transplants, opium addiction, homelessness, political strife left more or less in the west and the right in the eastern part, political strife within Portland proper, suicide rate higher than average, higher taxes, Oregon State Football (no offense, I like my shirt though and I still root for them), and craft beer snobbery.
    1
  534. Not bad, I have only been to Oregon twice, but I visited the entire state and not just the larger cities. Never would have guessed the low graduation rate.
    1
  535. There is also an East NY and it is actually in NYC, which I would guess is more dangerous, from what I remembered in the late 80s. Belle Mead, NJ is nice I am assuming based on what I remembered, and that name was good for that area. However, I seriously doubt you can even get a mailbox there for 70 K, unlike Belle Mead, TX Seriously almost guessed Newburgh, NY. I have not visited there for 30 years, and even back then, there were parts that were sketchy. Too bad, because the city actually sits in a nice location in the Hudson Valley, and is not far from NYC. It also is near 84 and 87, where the later will take you right to NYC. 9 West goes through there too. Wondering if there are residents there that once lived in the city, but the high cost of living drove them out. People I still know on the east coast told me it has become the new Harlem or South Bronx.
    1
  536. I heard both, but have also heard people say IOWAY for Iowa and ILLINOISE for ILLINOIS. On the east coast I heard locals from NH refer to Concord as Concad and people from North Jersey say NORK for Newark

    1
  540. Definitely can see why MN and ND made the list.
    1
  541. I am glad too, it is my home state. I thought it would be due to the mining, law enforcement, and construction jobs. AZ has a large population unlike the states that made the list.
    1
  542. Jonathan Culbertson True In many parts, but northern Arizona is cooler year round and has areas that are forested with pines and aspens. The Flagstaff area is different as well as areas along the Colorado Plateau. However, it is still dry overall, and dehydration can kick in. Conditions within a mine underground can expose one to warmer temperatures even in cooler surroundings. If you have been to Phoenix in the summer, then you can easily die of heatstroke, not so much at this time.

  548.  @eileenkenney5697  I remember when I was a kid in the 80s both towns were nicer. Haven’t lived back east since, but there are several places in the SW USA and eastern CA that are rundown too.

  562. That lighthouse is probably not in Bridgeport. Surprised that Bridgeport has not made a comeback. Black Rock was ok and the north end was not too bad. The town borders Fairfield to the southwest and Trumbull to the north. Stratford is to the northeast with less sketchier areas. Highway 8 and 25 were decent north south roads and the train was a little over an hour to NYC. I remembered the taxes were extremely high though. Have not lived in CT since 91 because of that.

  563. 60 percent, but getting Nebraska should count for double. Surprised Massachusetts did not make it, I thought they called it TAxachussetts.

  575. Not sure because there are a huge amounts of small towns in the US, but if I had to pick a few from first hand experience I would say: Mojave, CA, Lordsburg,, NM, Tucumcari, NM, Blythe, CA, Yuma, AZ, Wenden, AZ, Fredonia, AZ, Pine Ridge, SD, Red Oak, IA, and Silt, CO.

  585.  @AdamSmith-gs2dv  That is what I dealt with for 15 years. Denver 540 miles, Chicago 475 miles, Minneapolis 380 miles, Milwaukee 500 miles, KC 200 miles (but who cares). Also property taxes are horrendous and there have been winter days that are too cold for snow. Humid summers too, and can even reach triple digits. The positives are as follows: Nice downtown for a few blocks, Neale Woods, Fontanelle Forest, nice zoo, the Ponca Hills section, the UNO area, and the Loess Hills east of the Missouri River. Not much else, and the aforementioned can be done in a day.

  586. Not sure if telling everyone about underrated venues is such a great idea, because then everyone will show up

  587. It is the polar opposite of Denver and only 70 miles south along 25. It is more like an Idaho or Utah town sans the illegal recreational marijuana. It is safer than Denver and less expensive. I chose the Tucson, AZ area to relocate to 8 years ago over the Springs.

  593. Guessing: High Property Taxes, High Housing costs in over 90 percent of the state, drugs, lack of suitable employment upstate, crime (especially in NYC, and smaller cities upstate), winters can be brutal especially upstate, depression, traffic in the city, road construction in and outside of NYC, and it is politically dichotomous (greater NYC area versus somewhere upstate 350 miles away),

  604.  @marivega3294  Live in Southern Arizona in Tucson and most of the areas in Colorado I visit are predominantly Hispanic. Believe it or not when I lived in Nebraska for over a decade, there was/is a large Hispanic population. For example: South Side of Omaha, Lexington, Grand Island, Lincoln, Scottsbluff, and Sioux City. I would always spend time in South Omaha and the downtown is rich with Mexican Culture. Te deseo un buen día y noche. Deberías visitar las muchas ciudades. Es muy divertido. Espero que mi español is un poco claro. No seguro o segura si hablas español, pero trato , porque tengo muchas amigos y amigas quienes hablan español casi todos los días aquí en Arizona.

  620. Scott Gibson Check out Georgetown, CO, you will absolutely love it. It is right off interstate 70 and the houses are quaint (no cookie cutter bs) and you are 40 miles west of Denver and near several major ski resorts. Highly recommended in my opinion. In 10 years, I am retiring there for sure. Jiminy Peak is a great ski area in western Mass, but you will enjoy Copper, Winter Park, Loveland, A Basin etc. Mountain biking is ever present in Georgetown. Book a flight and stay there for a week, you will not be disappointed. And no I am not a realtor 😂 PS You might want to check out the western part of the town. IMO the houses are nicer and more quaint. You can score a house there for 450 to 500 k, with much less of a NY or NJ type of tax bite.

AZ has low taxes, but the schools are subpar. The government is definitely less than forthright here. Thanks again. Recreational Pot should be legalized here too, but always fails to get passed. It could pass due outward migration of people from the west coast that is going on right now at a faster pace.

  629. Still think Fairfield County CT is ruder than both. People out there are probably looking down on NJ as I write this. Most people there think places like Mendham, Warren, Short Hills, Bedminster, Alpine, etc. are sitting on landfills or have refineries in there backyards. The drivers are horrible in CT too. I would take NJ over CT any day, but your property taxes suck, but so does CT.

  640. I am guessing: LA, Boston, NYC, Phoenix, LV, Newark, NJ, Chicago, Miami, DC, and Atlanta. Not too sure on several.
    1
  641. California, NY, MD, VA, CO, CT, AZ, MA, VT, and ND
    1
  642. Got a few correct, I cannot believe I forgot NJ. ND was my guess because of the housing shortage there, whether you are a buyer or a renter. Not sure if that is prevalent today like it was 10 years ago.

  643. Just read Nomadland

  644. From personal experience years ago, I thought CT was more rude than NJ, especially most of Fairfield County.

  647. It is number 11?

  658. Abby C Omaha, is definitely better than Des Moines, I have lived in Omaha for 15 years and only visited and/or passed through Des Moines not even a dozen times. Both have excellent economies. Currently reside in the southwestern USA for the past 8 years. If you need any advice on suitable areas for you in Omaha, then drop me a reply.

  672.  @orlandos1056  It reminds me of Omaha, but warmer in the winters. I am going to guess that the hwy 75 or hwy 77 joins the 2 that are about 400 miles apart.

  675. Ever been to Omaha?

  676. The remoteness helps, especially in the far northeast. Also people, for the most part, are educated in Maine. My grandmother was from Maine, and she loved every second of it.

  678.  @kevinkelly1656  CT and NJ are way worse, left the former 38 years ago and the later 32 years ago. AZ where I live has more aggressive drivers and more torn up roads than WV, luckily I live far away from Phoenix, which is a thousand times worse. We have a lot of mining out here, and in some areas the drinking water is questionable (granted there is any). No shortage of drug addiction in many areas here too. IMO I-17 in AZ is much more dangerous than I-64 in WV, however I have mostly travelled the Interstate 64 in the summer, but the drivers were definitely less aggressive than the ones on AZ 17. Not sure how bad I-64 gets in the winter, but I am sure with all the grades it is dangerous. In the winter on AZ going north towards Flagstaff, one can almost guarantee that there will be an accident, because you can get whiteout conditions, along with people that cannot drive in the snow. The grades too, can be steep.

  680.  @TrenchReynolds  Luckily I live far away from Rockland County, about 2500 miles or so, but back in the day I met the closest thing to satan, whom I stupidly dated. Probably the most arrogant , narcissistic, sociopathic, and conniving woman I ever met. Fairfield County, CT was very comparable to Westchester County, NY, but probably worse.
    1
  681. San Bernardino
    1
  682. Guessing: boring in most areas, lack of educational opportunities, all the major cities have a substantial amount of crime, north winters, humid in summer, not sure if it is a southern state or a midwestern state, job pay, not many careers or big companies setting up shop there, all types of drug addictions, and a fair amount of poverty.
    1
  683. Guessing: Crime, education, summers especially in the SE portion, poverty, lack of jobs, not for the liberal mindset, New tornado alley, somewhat isolated (but is that really bad?), low wages, and high rates of health problems. NW corner is the nicest part.
    1
  684. Sounded like Leave To Beaver’s Mayfield

  685. The people are less than friendly there too, ND

  688. Excellent idea

  689. Lori Mello NJ, NY, CA, and IL would all make the cut.
    1
  690. Lori Mello Then NJ is the place for you. Scandinavian countries are no strangers to taxation either.
    1
  691. Guessing: LA County, Bern County, Cook County, San Bernardino County, Clark County, Essex County, the County with Detroit, the County with Memphis, the County with Buffalo, the County with Rochester, the County with Jackson MS, Camden County, and the County with St Louis

  696. Abby C Actually those type of jobs are bad on your lower back. Sitting is the new smoking, according to recent medical research. Lower back pain could lead to pain killer dependence and/or addiction, which could be deadly.

  700. Never would have guessed AR Do not know why I left out NY, CA, and RI??? Probably because I thought MN and many parts in the Midwest were unfriendly

  702. Guessing: ID, OR, WA, TX, NC, SC, TN, SD, NE, and CO
    1
  703. Surprised NE did not make the list. Definitely knew that Idaho would make it. SD always gave me chilly vibes when I traveled there, except for Lead. NC, I can see because of the FL halfbacks and the Northeastern and West Coast transplants.

  708. Thanks for clarifying the hand waving versus saying sorry, especially when driving. Happens in AZ all the time
    1
  709. Definitely agree, I lived in the Omaha area for 15 years, and Midwest nice and backstabbing is taken to a different level there. You literally have to be born there and it is even more pronounced once you get to the smaller towns. Do not listen to John Mellencamp when sings about a small town.

  717. Me too, and my guesses were virtually all wrong

  735. Ozzy Ozbourne does not want to be in California anymore either.
    1
  736. A boy named Charlie Brown is lovestruck over a redhead.

  737. Route 550 from Montrose to Durango, CO is a very beautiful drive. I recommend that one.
    1
  738. Listening from the southwestern USA, at least Cleveland has water 💦
    1
  739. For MS, to not be in a top 10 negative list, do a video on the states with the highest percentage of atheists or occult religions.
    1
  740. Never been to Detroit, but I know about NYC like the back of my hand, but moved away from there about 30 years ago. Some of the worst areas in NYC 30 years ago have completely changed. Detroit could be a nice city in the future. Now I live near Tucson and I have seen my fair share of run down areas, especially rural areas with abandoned houses. At least Detroit is near water, whereas AZ has parts where the wells get tapped out. However, I have met several people from the Detroit area out here, and they told me it was bad and even several of the suburbs can be sketchy too. The closest I ever was to Detroit proper was Toledo.
    1
  741. Belle Mead, NJ is another nice area, very similar in socioeconomic status to what you described in TN. That’s a great video idea!! A good polar opposite would be Bridgeport, CT and Bridgeport, NE
    1
  742. That does not only happen in Minneapolis.
    1
  743. Some other places in the US, are given Tucky endings.
    1
  744. Guessing: expensive housing, low local pay, isolated, politics, lack of infrastructure relative to growth, locals may not take it well depending on where the new transplants come from, lack of diversity, lack of big city night life, winters can get cold, and wildfires.
    1
  745.  @DeboraConners  At least they have Springfield which is more affordable and the Simpsons chose it, but there are probably high amounts of robberies
    1
  746. Great town, and I visit there from time to time, but it is not quite a metro area. Unless you want to call it the greater Flagstaff/Williams/Ash Fork region.
    1
  747. Not too familiar on this but I am guessing: Nebraska, Tennessee, Oklahoma, Kansas, Missouri, Arkansas, Iowa, Indiana, North Dakota, and Alaska. Hope to get a few and my guessing centers around the per capita variable. Otherwise I would say NY, CA, IL, TX etc.
    1
  748. All wrong 😂
    1
  749. Guessing: Cost of consumer goods, crime, winters cold and dark, substance abuse, summer bugs, permafrost melt, remote towns, housing costs, newcomers are less than welcome at times, and education
    1
  750. In Phoenix and Tucson, I smell marijuana everywhere. It literally goes through the vents in my car because every other car is hotboxing it while in transit. Same thing, if I am out and about.
    1
  751. Does not surprise me about the number 1, it has multiple biomes.
    1
  752. Interesting video. If you cannot afford Boulder or Thornton, CO then there is always Sterling, CO to the east. If cannot afford Torrance, Oceanside, or Hayward, CA, then there is always Bakersfield, CA If you cannot afford Austin, TX, then there is always Port Arthur, TX Seriously surprised that Boise did not make the list.

  753. Back in the late 70s and early 80s, that was a common sight in the majority of the Bronx.

  756. IMO, I have not associated So Cal with Jeff Spicoli since 1984. Guess that shows my age 😂. He also likes to give interviews to hard core drug dealers on the lam.
    1
  757. My guesses are LA, MO, AL, MS, KS, OK, IN, KY, IL, and IA

  761. Research will be scant

  762.  @nightangel1071  And when I did, Fargo is the best bet. I admit, I have never been to Fargo, but I have been to the far western reaches around and within Theodore Roosevelt NP, which is beautiful, but it is/was extremely isolated out there, but these days, that could be a good thing. They have excellent college football teams, if that is what you like. Seriously if you get the chance, make a trip out to the far western part of the state. Good luck
    1
  763. Boring, the ski area is too overcrowded, trains, traffic from Phoenix, and the hotels are a rip off/dilapidated/ or both. Santa Fe is nicer in all aspects and is worth the extra 4 hour drive if you are coming from points south in AZ
    1
  764. Florida also has better beaches than California IMO. It is a better time for me to fly to southeastern Florida from AZ than to make the 6 plus hour drive (or longer) to So Cal.
    1
  765. After the football season they just had, it is great to still hear there are loyal fans out there. I outta know because I say go Cats (The Arizona Cats)
    1
  766. Although I have been living out in the western USA for a number of years, I never thought West NY was that bad, now East NY was another story, but I have not lived in the metro NY area for almost 30 years. Made several visits, but it was more to Manhattan proper and to central NJ.
    1
  767. Sudan, Mexico, Somalia, Iran, Syria, Guatemala, Honduras, Columbia, Lebanon, and Nigeria.
    1
  768. Guessing: Alaska, Arizona, Alabama, California, Illinois, Missouri, Maryland, Tennessee, New Mexico, and Louisiana. 5 or better.
    1
  769. Would have better guessing the states that were not picked.
    1
  770. Guessing: CA, NY, AZ, HI, AK, NJ, CT, ME, WA, OR for the highest.
    1
  771. Guessing: Phoenix, LA , NYC, Houston, Seattle, Washington DC, Chicago, Boston, SF, Atlanta
    1
  772. Sea Isle City??? I thought that was relatively nice??
    1
  773. The only thing is that Harlem is not like way it used to be. One would be fazed how much it changed from 30 years ago. In the 80s you would not stop at lights or stop signs outside of 125th St, if you wanted to avoid getting carjacked, shot, or both. Then again, I recently heard NYC is trending downward in the safety department. Never been to MI, but I have been to every state around it. One would think that it would be nicer because of it’s proximity to Lake MIchigan, but I am going to guess that the more east you go within it, the worse it gets.
    1
  774. Wife says: Detroit, Tucson, OKC, Little Rock, Birmingham, Jackson, Des Moines, Buffalo, Sioux Falls, and Lincoln. I say: Tulsa, OKC, KC, Milwaukee, Memphis, Buffalo, Jackson, Cleveland, Charleston, WV, and Indianapolis.
    1
  775. So glad I moved to Angola.
    1
  776. Guessing in no particular order: Spanish, Mandarin, Portuguese, a language from India (not sure because there are many), French, Vietnamese, the native language of Sudan (not sure of the official one), Italian, Japanese, Korean, Arabic, and Tagalog sp?
    1
  777. Included Spanish without looking at the title. Lo siento todos. Actualmente, no dice algo sobre Español en el título.
    1
  778.  @robertpolnicky3262  When I lived in Omaha for 15 years, it was less like what you mentioned, but I have come across people, especially in work situations, where they would dislike you for no reason. I left that city around a decade ago, and moved to the SW USA. Here we have tons of CA transplants, but that does not bother me too much, but if we even remotely get a Nebraska transplant, I can almost guarantee that there previous attitude will be put in check, because they are out of their element. We do not get many NE residents, but we have are fair share of Chicagoans and Minnesota people. Minnesota is another story within itself. Willa Cather is from Red Cloud, I think???
    1
  779.  @sicknasty3565  I hope you moved to a much friendlier region and left NE in the rear view mirror.
    1
  780. I like how you zeroed in on south Texas while mentioning Fort Wayne.

  782. NY twice?

  785.  @mikewallin6049  Hence my name.
    1
  786. Thought the same, and he looks more jacked.
    1
  787. Got a few, but I was amazed that I got the first one. MN people are nicer in AZ because there are more people from different regions here or they are Snowbirds Altogether.
    1
  788. You must be visiting somewhere in AZ I have never been. People are more likely to be unfriendly here. Definitely surprised Nebraska did not make the list (passive aggressive at its best/worst) Threw that in there because Nebraska kind of sounds like Alaska per a Bee Gees tune on a b-side (Road To Alaska) from their 1972 single Run To Me
    1
  789. @The Tranquil Heart My advice, don’t do it, I lived there for over a decade and a half (1995 to 2011), and it is a very unfriendly environment, Omaha included. Re Omaha, They have a smattering of good cuisine, architecture, a good zoo, a good museum, and some nice riverfront areas, especially around Ponca Hills. However, usually if one is an outsider there, they will always be an outsider there. Try somewhere else bro. The property taxes suck there too.
    1
  790.  @UserName-ts3sp  Totally, ef the scenery Right???? 😂
    1
  791. Guessing, but I will be happy if I get one. Visit CA every now and then from AZ. Here they are: Blythe, El Centro, San Bernardino, Victorville, Palmdale, Barstow, Inglewood, Needles, Bakersfield, and Banning. There are many towns in CA, so my chances of getting one are low.
    1
  792. Yay I got 2 correct and the number 1 worst town on the list. I was not sure he was going to focus on LA county though. South Long Beach seems like night and day from the northern part.

  793. Dubois is beautiful, stayed there twice, great in the summer.
    1
  794. Did you at least, touch the Rin Tin Tin Star?
    1
  795. Not to be disrespectful, because all cities have great areas, but my guesses are: Portland, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Baltimore, Memphis, Jackson, Baton Rouge, St Louis, Flint, Camden, Birmingham, NYC, and Chicago.
    1
  796. Guessing: NJ, NY, CA, PA, OH, IL, HI, AK, OR, and RI
    1
  797.  @dknowles60  at least 1/2 of the SS income
    1
  798. DC is an irony
    1
  799. Guessing Vermont, Idaho, Wyoming, Montana, North Dakota, Maine, New Hampshire, Iowa, Nebraska, and West Virginia. Going for 5 or better.
    1
  800. Yay, I got 7 😀
    1
  801. D Brother I was thinking the same thing, I only got 7 out of 10
    1
  802. Guessing: Windy, Cold, boring, too expensive in the NW corner, too remote, limited career options, most people probably do not care for outsiders, spotty wifi, and substance abuse.
    1
  803. Did Buttermaker on the Bad News Bears need a license to clean pools ?
    1
  804. Guessing: Marana, Oro Valley, Scottsdale, Buckeye, Chandler, Gilbert, Green Valley, Vail, Queen Creek, Mesa, and Tempe
    1
  805.  @Dangic23  on that SS amount one would be lucky to afford East Pueblo or a trailer in Ovid, with the latter being more Nebraska than Colorado
    1
  806.  @user-yg4hv3un7c  Arizona is less expensive and there are areas with Colorado like scenery in the high country or on the sky islands. Unfortunately, not much in the way of water 💦

  807. Life would be good

  812. Guessing and you tipped me off with Scott Baio: LA, SF, Chicago, NYC, Baltimore, Minneapolis, Providence, Hartford, Newark, NJ, St Louis, and Honalulu.

  814. Disfruté este video pero olvidé sobré Illinois.
    1
  815. My guesses are places that are not the following: NJ within 50 miles of NYC, CT within 50 miles of NYC, MA, VA, VT, MD, NC, lower NY state within 50 miles of NYC, Orange County CA, LA county CA, anywhere near Silicon Valley, and the front range within 40 miles of Denver.
    1
  816. Probably all CA, CO, ID, and UT cities.
