Hawaii if we're talking all 50

San Diego if you want conus only.

Hawaii is the most beautiful place I've ever been. I was there for a few weeks and loved every minute of it.

San Diego would be second on the list with its amazing weather year round, and beautiful women.

Hawaii is an amazing place and I think it is also considered the state safest from any natural disaster- which surprised me because of the obvious tsunami threat.

That said though I think it would have serious trouble surviving a major catastrophe - I've heard they have less then 3 days of food and fuel on the island if shipments stop coming in... that would be scary. Granted urban areas on the mainland aren't in much better a situation but at least on the mainland you'd have hope of getting to an area that can be relatively self sufficient.

Im Glad someone posed this question because the wife and i have often thought of moving there but its such a huge place and being outsiders it's difficult to get a truthful unbiased opinion of where's best!

Don't move to the US. We've got about a year and a half before it's the next Greece.

Why do you want to move to the USA? Job opportunities? Dislike of the royal family?

Dunno really, just seems (most of the time) great place, everything and anything on your doorstep, depending where you live, the weather is nearly always great. I don't have a dislike for the royal family, far from it, i admire them for some of the things they endure, look at the Queen during here Jubilee week, up at 6 every morning and bed around 1-2am after spending most of her day on her feet and she's 86!!!, i couldn't do that now , you have to embrace your heritage and your roots but in my older years i want a nice life and the US seems to offer it, naturally i'd have to work as something for a few years as im only 48, my wife is a qualified nurse so no problem for her getting work.

I'd considered Canada, but the 60 minute drive to the nearest shop or civilisation is kind of a dampner , seriously though, although we'd like a little land around our house we wouldn't want isolation, this is all "pie in the sky" at the moment as we dont currently have the funds to move but it's what we're working towards in the near(ish) future
