I'm glad you are happy with your decision. I used to wonder what made some people conservative and others liberal, and I think much of it has to do with population density. I think cities normally tend to be liberal, and more rural areas tend to be conservative. This isn't the only factor, but it does seem to correlate pretty strongly.
If you want a laugh, this article pointing out some differences between liberal areas and conservative areas of the country is quite good.

I don’t know what makes people conservative. For me, it was seeing how much was taken out of my paycheck and all the crime happening around me. I do love NYC but it is nice to live among all the conservative gun owners around here. Hope all is well with you.
