I don’t think I’d make it for six months in Vermont before one of those Yankees had me arrested because my accent offended him.
Fremont? No way, Jose.
Yeah, those ND cities are very happy. Happy when the spring thaw comes, that is!!!!!!!!!

Fargo has three seasons. Winter. Flooding. Mosquitoes.
ya know what a southern gent and a pair of panties have in common?
All it takes is a Yank to bring them down!!
jk!! that one used to go over good over a CB radio!!
“ don’t think I’d make it for six months in Vermont before one of those Yankees had me arrested because my accent offended him.”
In Vermont it would likely be 5-10 years before anyone spoke to you.
I don’t believe any of it.
California and the Dakotas?
Right👌
But if it’ll redirect more people from coming to my state OK!
“Who gets to decide which city is happier than some other city? What criteria did they use to measure happiness? Does someone suddenly become an “expert” simply because they have a website?
Where do they get their data? In many decades on this planet, I don’t remember any pollster ever querying me about my happiness.”
Go to https://wallethub.com/edu/happiest-places-to-live/32619? and scroll down to “Methodology.” You can agree or disagree, but there is a methodology.
“Fremont? No way, Jose.”
Oh, there’s always a way. It just happens that the owner of wallethub, owned by evolution finance, Odysseas Papadimitriou, also owns carhub which has four cardhub stores in and right at the edge of Fremont:
Games of Fremont: Located right in the Fremont Hub Courtyard
Game Kastle: Located on Washington Blvd.
Cardboard Champion: Located on Fremont Blvd
88 Cardhouse: Located just over the border in Newark on Mowry Ave
Doesn’t hurt to get a little free andvertising and since he’s in Florida, emphasis on the free.

Two of the happiest, upbeat people I know are a married couple from Fargo. They live in Fargo, but spend the winter in Scottsdale. No wonder they are happy.
My cousin used to live near Duluth MN. He had two quips about life there:
1. There are two seasons. Winter and Road Construction.
2. It’s not true that we don’t have summer. And if it happens to fall on weekend, we have a picnic.

I lived there for 40 years. It would be an ok place if you left for Arizona on Labor Day and came back on Memorial Day.
Freemont is like 100% Muslim.
In Utah we get to enjoy all 4 seasons in one day.
No way, San Jose.
Fremont, California is the happiest?
What’s next, Oakland, California is the safest?
San Francisco, California has the most straight men?
Santa Cruz, California has the lowest amount of Marijuana use?
C’mon, Man!
Anywhere in VT is hippie dippie commie. No thanks.
