The best places to live - the short list
Writing by Rich on February 21, 2007
My wife and I have been discussing where we might live next for some time now. We love Southern Utah; at one point we were making a couple of trips there a year for canyoneering and mountain biking. But we’re not enamored of some aspects of the culture and, since we like wine (and Utah won’t allow wine shipments), you’ll notice that we’re generally looking at the states surrounding Utah.
As we move through our search, I may add names and take others away. I’ll go into each city in more detail before too much longer. So without further delay, here’s a first pass at the candidate list:
The best places to live?
Arizona
- Prescott
- Tucson
California
- Bishop
Colorado
- Colorado Springs
- Durango
- Grand Junction
- Salida
New Mexico
- Albuquerque
- Las Cruces
- Rio Rancho
- Silver City
North Carolina
- Asheville
Okay, that last one is sort of a ringer. But my daughter is in college there, and my Mom, who is getting up there in years, is nearby. It’s a long shot, but one that we can’t quite rule out.
