There's a shitload dumped in Lewiston by Obama to diversify it, but they keep to themselves and stick out when they don't.

Because 99% of that shite is written by 20 somethings who's knowledge of the world is purely academic.

NE during the summer is prettt damn near perfect. Especially VT and DE. I am getting serious about buying a small home out there to rent out until I retire and be a snow bird. My only worry would be managing it out of TX.

Most African immigrants are good people until they become Americanized.

With everything there's tradeoffs. Cold winters are an easy trade for me. I'll live around good people with cold winters long before living around perpetual dysfunction again.

It's not very diverse in Chicago, why is it not related there?

Juneau isn't Anchorage.

Its heaven compared to Louisiana, much much better people. But that's not a very high bar.

The fact that they value "diversity" more than things like shitty, brutal winters and being kind of remote with pretty long drives to the nearest population centers says a lot.

It says even more that they don't connect the dots between the "lack of diversity" and that "lowest violent crime rate".

You don't have to be the sharpest crayon in the tool shed to connect the dots there. To progressives and their left-wing propaganda apparatus (the MSM) white people are the scourge of the planet. Well, except when they point out the socialist-democracies run by the Nordic nations. Then, their lack of diversity is swept u Der the rug and never mentioned. Weird how that works, huh?
Yup.

You could. Pretty amazing to live in a place with functional government and intelligent people.

You lose a lot of the pettiness of life when you leave the South or Northeast.

Tennessee
Best: A city of music

Known as Music City, Nashville is home to one of the most vibrant music scenes of any city. And Elvis Presley himself called Memphis, which also has a strong music community, home.

Worst: A violent crime problem

Tennessee has one of the highest violent crime rates of any state, and Memphis, the second largest city in the state, has the third highest violent crime rate in the country.




Think Mississippi would take Memphis?
