I say North Dakota. Lowest unemployment rate in the country, low crime, friendly people, beautiful country. Really, climate not as bad as people say; they always mention ND when they think cold weather, but think of all the other states bordering Canada. Beautiful summers and falls. I don’t know where one person is coming from when he’s afraid of a conservative area because they wouldn’t be as willing to help, but he sure has it wrong. Conservatives are all about helping each other so the government doesn’t tell us what to do. We have good schools, 3 colleges in the Fargo area.
The weather in the winter can’t be any worse than Northern Maine. I’ve seen three feet of new snow fall in 24 hours on top of the six feet that’s already there. Then, when the skies clear, it gets down to 50 below zero.
