Just got the confirmation that I’m now a remote worker - so I can finally move out of the northeast and explore another part of the country. I’m single M - 29 years old like to be active(run, bike, tennis), be close to body of water, love the sun and tropical climate. Am looking at Florida (st. Pete and Fort Lauderdale), Colorado, and California (San Diego) anyone around my age have thoughts about places I’ve mentioned and or others I should look at?

San Diego is the bomb. I have the exact same age, gender, and interests as you. I live in SoCal and it is absolutely abundant.

I’ve lived in California my entire life (27 years) and I think there’s been only like 3 earthquakes that were actually strong enough to feel. And I grew up in LA near the San Andreas fault line

San Diego is wonderful. Colorado might work for you depending on what you do on the water. Florida is too hot and humid to be any fun for most non-water activities.

first of all congrats !! would love to know which company allowed full time remote. second check out north Carolina around Raleigh and Cary. it's very outdoorsy and full of people and not too hot

Lol Austin body of waters are only gorgeous only if you’ve never been down the California coastline. The lakes aren’t even real. Compare to the Pacific Ocean they are sad.

San Diego is awesome. Another great thing about Southern California is how geographically diverse the area is. You’re always only a couple hours away from the beach, the city, mountains, etc. Plus you can’t beat the weather

San Diego is so expensive though

29F, Colorado is awesome but no water! The “lakes” are ponds according to my east coast husband but still work for paddle boarding, boating etc. we love hiking 14ers and he goes on tons of long bike rides. Just gotta get into some winter sports too but it is sunny 300 ish days out of the year

like

Raleigh is 2 hours to ocean and 4 hours to mountains so a great place to have best of both worlds.

like

Boise

Denver if you like snow sports. San Diego if you prefer the water. Both have great bike trails and great night life.

If going Florida, go Miami!!! Most fun place you’ll experience. Combo of beach + nightclubs + booming economy is great.

Spanish is a consideration— if you don’t speak it, that’s okay. You’ll pick up your “restaurant Spanish” quickly.

The culture is incredibly open, nonjudgmental, friendly, and fun. I highly recommend Miami

Do you already have a partner or is that something you’re looking for?

Something I’m looking for

I’m in the same boat - my gf and I are moving to St. Pete.

Change my mind: the talk around things shifting to a 'new normal' is overblown. Society's collective conscience is too short-term to enact massive changes to things we are comfortable (e.g., global warming). Yes, it will take awhile for offices to open back up, flights to be full, etc., but within 1-2 years things willbe mostly back to what they are like now and this massive structural shift will have never materialized.

Confused if parents want schools to reopen or not? I read so many posts here about how difficult it is to work full time and manage kids’ at-home schooling (I can’t even imagine!) so would assume that means parents want to reopen, but at the same time keep seeing a ton of backlash from parents in states who are pushing to reopen due to safety reasons.
