IA. If you need me, just meow..
Because it's where my hubbys future is. His parents own a store and he's supposed to take it over when they retire.
I'd like to move but it isn't going to happen. I guess it isn't so bad here. Hardly any crime, but still the town isn't normal, but I guess as long as they stay away from me, I can live here.

Because this is where my heart is!!!!
My first husband and I moved here back in 1993.We divorced in 1995...........thank the good Lord above!!
I met my current hubby in 1995,we married in 1997 and I have NEVER thought of being anywhere else.
We live out in the boonies.We don't have to lock our doors at night,it's peaceful,and not alot of neighbors.

I will most likely live here my entire life
I'll have to remember that when we're in Ohio in August, broiling under the sun and sweltering in the humidity, and all of us Coloradoans are wondering why in the world anyone would live there by choice!
No, really, it's a beautiful place, and we just happen to go every year for the most miserable part of summer. But we still wouldn't change it for anything.


I live in Colorado because we moved here when I was 18 months old. Grew up thinking I couldn't wait to leave, but when I went to college I realized how wonderful Colorado really is. The moderate climate - no earthquakes, tornados (well, not this close to the mountains), hurricanes, volcanos, etc. - very little humidity, the beauty of the mountains, the Western attitude... So I decided to stay in the state. Moved to Lakewood because I wanted to live in a bigger city than Ft. Collins (still don't like that place to live!), and my job was going to be close to here. Lakewood is pretty safe, very pretty, close to the mountains, close to Red Rocks
, close to Denver for stuff to do,

Red Rocks Amphatheater is a world renoun concert venue. Quite a few bands have recorded their live albums and videos here because it is known as having some of the best natural acoustics in the world. Most of the concerts I saw there were metal, but probably the best performance I have seen there was Tori Amos. With the acoustics and everything, her sitting at her piano with the wind blowing through her hair, it was almost ethereal.

Here's the Wikipedia page on Red Rocks, which talks about the performances recorded there, which include Stevie Nicks, U2, Neal Young, John Tesh, Moody Blues, etc.: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Rocks_Amphitheatre

I live in Memphis because that's where i was born and raised.....My heart and my home is here and I would never want to leave this awesome city. Sure it has its ups and downs, but when it comes down to it- there's nothing like a Memphis night and a walk downtown
/ Also- I stay in Bartlett,TN now with Colin- it's about 4-5 minutes away from Memphis where I live with my mom. My neighborhood has become extremly dangerous....so i've been staying with colin lately. Bartlett is a LOT safer
But i'm still in Memphis everyday. / I can't think of anywhere else i'd rather live- this is my city and my home, and it has been that way all of my life. I'm definitely a Memphis Belle

Yup, all 4 seasons
freeze your toes off in January and get heat stroke in August

I came here because I was offered a job, and I stayed because I fell in love, first with the place, and later with my sweetie. We may need to think about moving when we retire, because it's not cheap to live here, but we'll cross that bridge when we get there. Neither of us really wants to leave.

I live where I live because my man lives here.
He owns our home, so he couldn't exactly come to me

Well, your right.....I mostly don't, do I?

I live here in Ohio because this is where I was born and raised.........I live in the Cleveland area because this is where Jerry lived and had a decent job, so I moved here, (an hour away) to be with him when we married......

I do like Ohio, but since my parents are gone, could be talked into moving.....I love the seasons, but hate winter.............

We live in the cheapest area of London (England- not Ontario
) because we have a mortgage and I wouldn't want to live in any other city. I no longer have family here and if I lost my job I might consider a move but I can't see Epona wanting to move tbh

Some of my ancestors moved here not long after Indiana became a state.

I live here because this is DH home town. When we first came up here I didn't like it at all, but after the last three years it's really grown on me. I just want to move out of the snow belt!

I live here in K.C. because this is where my family lives. I was raised here and I love it.
