The best state to live in? -

I m 22 and planning on leaving home soon. But I m so sick of the hot, humid, miserable St. Louis summers. I m looking into states that have long winters with snow, and cooler less humid summers. Any suggestions?

Look to the west. Colorado/Wyoming/Montana/Utah/Idaho all have very dry climates. Summers in this region can be hot, but without the humidity it isn t as oppressive as what your used to.The longest, snowiest winters are in the northeast, Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine, but those states also have humidity.

I think the best place to live is Pennsylvania, personally. Winters can be cold from December through mid March. August can be humid, but the heat is not terrible. The most important thing is cities like Philadelphia are bike friendly, have excellent mass transit, affordable living, and jobs. You can escape on the weekends to the Poconos for snow and the Jersey Shore for beaches.

Trust me, you do NOT want cold winters with lots of snow. The cold hurts, and the snow causes nothing but trouble. Trust me, I have lived in New England my whole life, and I m eager to get outta here and to someplace much warmer. And after 4 months of long cold winter, you want it to end.

Florida! It s sunny and warm all year around.. It might be humid, but you are never further than an hour from a beach to cool off! No snowy winters to worry about and it s just really beautiful weather...

don t come to michigan we get humid in the summer cause of the great lakes and we have over 11,000 inland lakes. try Bend Oregon

Texas
