...USA for live the rest of my life, what's the State/County you could suggest me? Climate is not a big problem (except a huge amount of rainy days, please not), so for the food (according to my wife I eat anything, litteraly ahahah). We like outdoor activities of course, an informal style of life, warm peoples, beautiful scenarios. Do you suggest Eastern area of USA or Western part? North or South? (Please don't suggest me i.e. Alcatraz, S. Quentin or Guantanamo, I deal on you guys, ahahah) Regards, Alfredo

Alfredo-
This is very subjective of course...But there are many areas in the USA that are really nice places to live. I live in Florida and it is great here especially if you like the oceans and beaches and the warm weather. It is 70+ degrees F for at least 10 months of the year which means you can do outdoor activities almost year round. However, there are no mountains...it is flat. Also, it is humid which makes it seem even hotter.
I just watched a show on Discovery channel and they ranked Hawaii as the safest state in the USA. Very scenic, nice weather and lots of water and mountains...but its an island state and disconnected from the mainland.
Personally, I like it out West. Colorado, Wyoming and Utah have awesome scenery, lots of activities and 4 seasons. If you are into outdoors and hiking, mountain climbing, skiing, etc. then I would suggest one of those states. California is nice also but I don't like the earthquakes and they are too liberal for my liking. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />
Good luck to you. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Each area in The U.S. has its own culture. Different parts of the U.S. will seem like different countries with a similar language.

There is no way I can say one place or the other. If I was forced to probably northern New Mexico or Kentucky--I know, neither are alike in any aspect but both are beautiful and have a lot to offer.

If income wasn't a concern....it would be CO, Wyoming, Montana for me. PLENTY of outdoor activities....not certain about food, but I could get by anyways.
California is great...but the politics just make the place a drag.

I'm in the North East and do like my 4 seasons- although it does seem like the older I get, the harder winter seems. But, that can be managed by the right actvities. On the coast here makes summers cooler and winters milder.

Texas. Big and beautiful from the Gulf Coast to the mountains of West Texas. And, no state income tax.

Our gun laws are good and getting better(read that, we have them and want more). So +1. I like New Mexico alright too. Cali has bad laws and a shakey political situation currently. They do have great weather. Florida has great gun laws but is too humid!

I would say that is all pretty good area. Keep in mind the cost of living is higher in some states than others. Also, some states are much more hot or cold.
