Well, I was a military brat, we lived in Fla. twice, N.C. once, Texas once, Lousianna twice, and we always came back to Montgomery, Al. for about 6 months before moving on to another place, my ex and I lived in Ft. Lewis, Wa. and now I am back in Montgomery, Al., this is my home. I love the weather, the slower pace to life and the hospitality of the south. If I had my choice to move any where I wanted to go I would move back to San Antonio, that place was great to me. But most of my family is here and I couldn't be any happier. I guess it is just where you are comfortable that would make the best place for you to live. You may even have to move around a bit to find the right place. Good luck to ya!
