i find funny that americans have that joke. In Brazil we have our joke with one of ours states too
Acre. It's the fair one in Brazillian's Northwest. It's kinda our Alaska
Texas if you have a family with kids or something
Florida if you wanna have fun
I have been to both states
Texas is weird if It's your first time here (If you're from unarmed country policy)
It’s pretty cheap and taxes are low
Gun laws are crazy I agree might not be the right place for someone who is from outside the US
Yeah Texas is a cheap state to live in. You can save easily up to 2 times on expenses compared to Cali or New York
No, I've only been to toronto and quebec
Quebec was amazing but I didn't like toronto
I have only heard good things about vancouver tho
u realize GenG is like canada’s biggest supporters right w their og french canadian team
honestly, you don't have to file for bankruptcy over an infection from a papercut
It depends on what you want. Diversity, political opinions, lifestyle can differ, even within states. The only constant is McDonalds.
It also depends on your preferred climate. Places like Florida (I spent five weeks there) are nearly unbearable during the summer (even if you aren't prone to sweating, you WILL be in Florida), and places like NY are unbearable during the winter (unless you're a native of NY, those guys are different). Somewhere like Virginia is nice. Pretty moderate with politics and lifestyle, on the East coast, and beaches nearby. I haven't spent much time there, but I may start my career there since the company for which I work operates in that state.\
If you're working, you'll get more pay in rough climate states (like Alaska), because nobody wants to live/work there.
Thank you man , I'm considering to live in states that have similar climate like Melbourne
good luck on the journey, we'd love to have you lol. The accent will get you bitches (or dudes, no judging from me) for sure.
Not sure if any places in the states of anything similar of climate to Melbourne lol, but I guess snow would discourage you from going to New England. Honestly if you can handle Melbourne, you will be able to handle most places except like Arizona lol.
I'm from the west coast, love it and would recommend. I love the Northwest (Seattle and Portland) for temperate climate, but there really isn't much sun or warm weather. It can be expensive in the cities but if you go inland a bit it gets much cheaper.
California is pretty good, if you can get a well paying job here. South or the Bay area is fun if you don't have a lot of commitment to like family or something and you can just support yourself. North California is cool, but avoid stockton lol. Any further north than Sacramento/yuba and its way more nature with less to do other than hike and explore. Very expensive here tho. I could be living in a mansion in texas but here i pay 3.5k for a mid-tier apartment. Its fun though and most people are friendly.
Don't do him dirty by recommending California, I'm pretty sure it's one of the most disliked states in the country. A lot more regulations, but some are more progressive, so it's not all bad.
DON'T move to Ohio, it's the worst place on earth.
don't question it. lol
idk, i think ohio was a joke in my high school. we had a bunch of annoying ppl move in from there, and one teacher started it by constantly shit talking them. not sure how he got away with it, but i'm here to spread that sentiment to the rest of the world.
Cali is a great state! Maybe the rednecks in the midwest dislike it for political reasons, but the weather here is amazing, the food and culture are diverse, the people are very friendly :)
I could live for 10 years in a contiguous state, or go for a week vacation in Hawaii. With the same amount of money.
But goddamn it's beautiful.
California is great if you stay North of Santa Barbara or South of San Clemente. LA is a hellscape and is the worst of both worlds CA has to offer.
Majority of landlocked states (not including great lakes states) east of the Rockies are shitholes. Anyone who tells you otherwise is lying to your face.
Texas is pretty cool but avoid Houston it fucking sucks there.
Upstate NY is cool and much cheaper/easier to live in than NYC. Also is close to a lot of major cities.
Avoid Ohio. There is no point elaborating. Cleveland is the 7th circle of hell.
Personal recommendation is either Washington, Oregon, Colorado, North Carolina, Florida, Texas or Northern California, depending on budget.
VA is cool it depends where you are looking. Alexandria and Richmond are both nice cities. I prefer NC over it but both are solid options.
No problem. Also realized you're from AUS so Florida may be more up your alley even if its not where I would want to live. Anyway best of luck!
yeah like the other guy was saying, VA and NC are both absolutely beautiful from the mountains to the beaches. But you said you would like a similar climate to Melbourne so it doesn't really correlate.
LA is noting like they show in movies. probably the shittiest place I've been to
When I lived in CA, the only people who ever wanted to go to LA were people who had never been. Its just a dirty muggy shithole full of transplants. People jump on parts of the Bay Area and San Diego for being bad, but LA is far far worse
New Jersey is expensive by house standards and not special like the other states, but it feels Standard middle class America
Not super expensive and some pretty good korean food for some reason, idky lol, but a cool thing to add.
california
pros:
good food
good weather
good cities
cons:
very expensive
high gas prices
CAP. Lobster rolls are mid. People are going to flame me for this take, but honestly Lobster Rolls cost quite a bit in Maine as well, and they are still pretty mid compared to other foods in other places for the same price point. And other than Lobster Rolls, there's nothing to do in Maine lol.
I don't even like Lobster Rolls but there's actually cool stuff to do in Portland and if you like the outdoors there is a lot of stuff to do in other parts of Maine as well.
It's very niche. Hiking and Camping are fantastic, and mountain biking is fun for the most part. I'm not sure about the skiing and snowboarding in Maine, but I guess that would be good, although I don't find skiing and snowboarding that fun.
I mean if you like it, those stuff are top notch in Maine, but then again it's very niche.
Yeah because Maine is the best state. Pretty cheap cost of living, safe, beautiful, four seasons.
Great education, but it snowed really hard, then rained, then snowed some more. Shoveling snow is possible, shoveling ice is not lol. And Boston roads are a complete mess from a design standpoint.
Honestly only 2 reasons to be in Boston is for Clam Chowder no cap(Boston Clam Chowder better than maine, fight me), and education, but that highly depends on where you live. Just like most places it's the low commercial suburbs which have the best education, and there's great education programs as well. Shitty food otherwise though.
Bro, there is the same food throughout the country, that isn't why you choose to live somewhere. And are you bipolar? You just said there was very little snow and great roads and now you go off about how bad the snow and roads are, I'm so confused. Massachusetts is one of the best states, all of New England besides New Hampshire is awesome.
It was a joke lol, can you not sense sarcasm. New England is great tho, but it's not for most people due to the insane amounts of snow.
+1. Not the worst place to settle down and live, but especially trash to visit because of how boring it is lol.
More interesting than 90% of other states without the natural disasters and crime.
Unironically? Tennessee has relatively low taxes and good property values, is an extremely nice places and cities like Chattanooga and Nashville and both nice places to live. Texas isn't bad but is quickly raising in property values, and anyone saying California is fucking lying. I've lived in Virginia in the DC area and i loved it, but its definitely a culture shock depending where you go
Tennessee is nice. I only went there to observe the solar eclipse, but damn it's a pretty nice place to live lol. It feels relatively neutral and just pleasant.
Cali bay area is too expensive. DC is great + lots of parks+ great for holidays at ross lake,paradise,lavenworth,san juan
Coming from a white foreigner that moved to US approx 11 years ago:
If you're not white, christian and cannot easily co-exist with racist people, don't move to Florida, Tennessee, Texas, Alabama, Mississippi, Georgia, Arkansas, Arizona, South Carolina, Kentucky, Indiana, West Virginia or Missouri
^^
Everything else is freezing cold though so remember to bring multiple layers if you go anywhere in the top half of you united states. Also if New England during winter months, is honestly not super cold, but damn there's so much snow. Midwest I can't handle tho lol, Chicago already has like 50mph winds, and I can't handle the cold plus that.
Or just go to California but not in LA lol.
I'd include Louisiana in that list too except for NO maybe. Dallas-Fortworth is a rly good spot imo, but TX sux other than that. imo the best state is N.C. Beautiful, not too cold but not too hot, the "big" cities are not massive, but also not small.
Guessing that you have already graduated and you are on your own. So really just wherever you can find a job honestly lol. Unless it's teaching or something that requires you to interact with people a lot. Demographics shouldn't matter too much and you will be able to adapt within 2-3 years or so.
I’ve only lived in one state thus far so i can’t give you much firsthand experience
Unless you are getting a high dollar job in chicago Dont come to illinois
Also charleston, South Carolina is a very nice city, I’ve visited it a couple times and the food, weather, architecture, and natural beauty are all phenomenal
I’m from illinois and visited Charleston a few times bc my sister was there for military stuff
It’s such a nice city compared to anywhere in my state
Given the chance I’d move there in an instance
Mate, his got an Aussie accent. It's legit the cheat code to pulling girls aboard. Man doesn't need to sleep with his sister
Pennsylvania. close to a bunch of places. good mix of urban and suburban/rural life
the best us states definitely dki jakarta. its like venice! if u like driving a long time in a car then jakarta its perfect for u!
Cali is pretty friendly to people from other countries, I swear 3/4 of the population is either latino,viet,filipino or indian.
it's stupid expensive tho and taxes are fucked.
got a ton of tech-related jobs, though.
L.A. is a hellhole, don't go there.
I like cali, i live here, but it is very expensive. If you live in a suburb in the central valley, it is a little cheaper but a lot more boring. I'm guessing you like hot weather, so maybe Florida or texas? both have beaches. SoCal if u have the money LOL
Hello sir, can I interest you in rural Vic. Everything you love about Melbourne without all the things you hate about Melbourne. My to recommendation would probably be Ballarat, doesn't have the traffic issues of Geelong while still being a developing area that has a lot more of the comfort items unlike Bendigo, warnabool and Horsham. Weather is good and doesn't have the issue of massive seasonal tourism like wang and most places east of Melbourne.
A short hour or so from the surf coast and (if your so inclined) Melbourne.
Also cost of living is pretty fucking cheap, fuel significantly less than Melbourne, rent is a lot less than Melbourne (so is buying). Aswell great work opportunities along side a current big movement to work remotely.
Easy just stay in Aus
