Greenville is nice, but the traffic is doodoo.

But - two hours to the mountains, two hours to the beach and decent living in and of itself.

I really like Savannah, but it doesn’t fit the criteria since it’s run by incompetent corrupt democrats.

Ft. Worth has some rough areas but for a city its size it’s pretty well run.
I would say *most* of the city is pretty ugly and a hood bit of it is rough

My time in Charleston has been just under a year but I'd consider it very well run. And I helped elect the first Republican mayor in 150 years

So you’re happy with how the city functions but decided a new mayor was needed?

The few parts of Boston I remember seeing weren’t horrible. It seemed alright.

It's closer than that. Like an hour at most.

the retarded right wing media blows it way out of proportion. As if any of the idiots that watch them ever travel anyway.


My friend lives in Seattle and bought a gun because some buns tried to saw off their catalytic converter while their car was in the driveway.

Plus my parents are right wing and we traveled all over the world when I was younger. I have friends that are rt wing and in the military, traveled all over the world.

Seems like you are the one listening to propaganda.

Plus the whole blm and city of Chop or whatever was an utter disgrace. Keep drinking that kool aid.

Yeah you’re describing Columbia not Greenville. Wouldn’t call Greenville a big city either.

I'll add Fremont, CA. Very nice city for a city of its size. 230K-250K

salt lake city is great in the winter when the bums leave town. I really like it there.


My brother lived there for 2 years and I went up there often. Can absolutely agree with this.

I just spent a week in the Northeast. Portland Maine Metro (500k) area kinda qualifies.

Incredibly clean and no homeless. It was a nicer Austin (20 years ago) with Lobster rolls and an ocean.

BLM and trans flags everywhere though. I guess when you don’t have to worry about inner city youth (of any creed) or immigration. you can worry about non-existent issues thousands of miles away.

OKC, Lincoln and Omaha are pretty nice as well.
