Nice, imma look that dude up

I'm down to the 2 cities, Seattle and Vegas. Like you said, I like mid-sized cities. Where theres still alot of people, alot of cultures, but it's not overwhelming. NYC can get too crowded. There's really no, "get away". You drive an hour away from NYC, you're in Long Island or Mount Vernon :pachaha:. There's no escape

Seattle is great. Very nice city, and very walkable like NYC. Breh when I tell you the summer weather over there. Doesn't ever get over 80 degrees, and no humidity

I feel the same way about Chicago....I only saw pictures but, this video makes me see just how big Chicago is. The city just goes on forever :dwillhuh:

Its like the perfect size. Bigger and more vibrant than Philadelphia and D.C. which are at best overgrown mid-sized cities but, smaller than New York City which is TOO MUCH

If Chicago didn't have so much crime and violence it would be a 10/10. Imma still move there though (NYC still comes up in my thought process but, I'm leaning more towards Chicago) and stay my ass far far far away from the South side and most of the West side :picard:

I would say Chicago, but I can't stand those Midwestern winters. Lived in Iowa and Michigan, and visited Chicago and Minneapolis. I ain't bout that -30 with windchill life :picard:

How am I talking shyt when I said I wanted to move there, moe :gucci:

760 something people got killed there last year. So yea...I am a bit cautious. That's triple the murder total in Philly.

Edit: More than triple. Philly had 203 murders in 2016. Chicago had 762 murders in 2016. If Chicago could get the gang violence under control, it would be a top destination.

One is a city the other is a state.

North Jersey is like an extension of NYC.l but cheaper and less crowded. Not a bad or good thing.

Central Jersey is more rural, is where the money lives and is an also an extension of Pennsylvania.

South Jersey aside from the shore is country.
central jersey has nothing to do with philly/PA other than the fact that it's close

Exactly what I was thinking :mjlol:

Yeah all the gangs and violence is enough for me to not even consider or think of it. If I'm falling on hard times and gotta move to one of their broke neighborhoods that's practically suicide
