Cold places to live in the US? Preferably on the Eastern side of the country? -

I want to move someplace cold, probably in the Northeast. I m looking for somewhere that gets a good amount of snow in the winter, and gets warmer but not hot in the summer.. maybe around like 60 degrees max? I like the idea of living in a small/medium sized town with mountains around. A big city within driving distance would be great too!Easy 10 points if you know of any good places!

I don t know about 60 degrees being the maximum, since most areas of the northeast, even in the coldest areas, will still hit 80 usually in the summer. You should look into the city of Burlington, Vermont. It s a nice place and they have mild summers there (not usually much over 80 degrees.) And they have cold, snowy winters. They get a fair amount of snow. They are right off of Lake Champlain, and fairly near the Great Lakes region of the U.S. which means they get Lake Effect snow (intense snow that builds up over the Great Lakes and then dumps snow just to the east of the Great Lakes.)There are a lot ski resorts in that area, and the city of Burlington is a nice college town. Check it out.

You should live in either Maine, New Hampshire or Vermont.New Hampshire and Vermont have beautiful mountains and have very nice small towns near the mountains. Maine also has places like that, but Maine really doesn t have mountains.All three of those states have a lot of snowfall during the winter and they don t get too hot during the summer.However, it can get up to 80 or higher during the summer up there. However, when it is 80, its not humid, and believe me, it feels cooler than that.I ve been to Maine and New Hampshire during the middle of the summer and it is beautiful up there!

Shuffle off to Buffalo.
