But . . . it’s “lesbian friendly.”

High taxes, brutal winters, thousands of annoying college kids - what’s not to love?

I think the keyword is "city". My brother lives maybe 20 miles away and it's a beautiful country type atmosphere. Maybe we could get Osama to nuke just the "city".

I can’t believe any city in NY is voted one of the best places to retire. Property taxes are outrageous there.

Girlfriends Magazine? With an endorsement like that, you gotta believe it.

when i retire, i need a state that does not tax pensions. i’ll find a good city from that information. hopefully relatively warm with a good school system.

Plan on going back to school after you retire?

“All these top-10 lists ultimately get back to college towns — places that are young and active and have strong, stable economies,” he said. “They have to go through the cycle and make sure they haven’t picked you lately.”

Yeah, and uniformly liberal. These top place to live rankings are usually code for anything goes and worse. Hence, college towns always rank well and are a good place to live if you don’t have to live there.

I recently read the book "Red State of Mind: How a Catfish Queen Reject became a Liberty Belle." It's about a Tennessee girl who moves up north with her new husband. They end up living in Ithaca for a while. The stories she tells about giving birth and the recycling program in Ithaca are hysterical. No one who hasn't lived with liberal extremists would believe the laws they pass.

Read this book if you get the chance. It is a fun, quick read that shows how insane and out of touch leftists are with normal people.

Ithaca: 10 square miles surrounded by reality.

The Village was also cited as one of "the best places to retire".

Be seeing you #6.
