I live in San Francisco because most of my family and close friends are here. I also have a job in the city as well. I also like the diversity of people. I won't say where I visiited but it made me appreciate SF more after I got this comment, "So, what kind of 'Chinese' are you?" I know the guy wasn't trying to offend me. He was just completely clueless.

I live in Indy because:

I grew up here
I (mostly) enjoy living here
My wife enjoys living here
Cheap cost of living compared to many other areas
There's actually quite a bit to do
We both have family in the state

I've thought about moving before, like somewhere on the lower east coast like the Carolinas but my wife doesn't want to leave. So here we are. :shrug:
