SC- lowcountry
NC- Raleigh/Cary are or near the ocean
TX- Dallas area
Nebraska- Lincoln area (family there)
Would live in Georgia, ohio, Florida. Haven't been to enough other states to say I'd wanna live there. Preferably somewhere cold and not the chances of 6 inches of snow overnight.

That's it. If I couldn't live in one of those places I would like to live overseas.

Ohio - I can't really see myself ever leaving. I love my hometown and the Akron/Cleveland areas.
Arizona - PHX/Scottsdale and Tucson. I've enjoyed visiting my brother and college roommate numerous times.
Illinois - Chicago is my favorite big city.
Maryland - Love the area that my ex's family is from on the Severn River.
Hawaii - Never been, but I imagine it's fantastic.
North Carolina - Love the weather and there are some great vacation spots.
South Carolina - ^^ Samsies
Texas - Austin seems like a place I would enjoy.


That's all I've got. I haven't visited a ton of states, and then there are those I have but am not a fan of (Florida, Georgia, Michigan and Indiana among them).

As a current DC resident, and Browns fan, I highly doubt you would make it in this city.

Hope this helps.
