Where would you move (within the US) if you could move anywhere? And why there?

Currently in NY, lease is up soon, working remotely forever. Never lived anywhere else in the US.

I love nature, animals..snorkeling, horseback riding, working out gives me life.

We're moving to NC, low cost of living, low taxes, great people, lots of horses. Also, there are a lot of transplants from NY there.

Car or no car? Any family? Big city a requirement? How often do you snorkel? Ride?

No family. Don’t have a car but can consider getting one if needed. Would snorkel and ride as much as possible - both give me a ton of joy (spent a while in the Caribbean’s earlier this year, went to the beach 2-3x/week prior to work in the mornings + at least once during the weekend), rode 2x/week. Big city is not a requirement as long as there is an international airport within reasonable distance.

You'd be surprised how beautiful Northern Arkansas is. Maybe also the Carolinas?

I'd love to stay in the Bay Area, or otherwise somewhere along the Pacific Coast between Malibu and Eureka. Otherwise, somewhere in Washington state or Oregon, or somewhere like Montana, Colorado, or Wyoming. Other major cities would be NYC, Austin, or DC metros.

I’m from NY and lived in DC for awhile. I really loved it. A smaller version of all the things I loved about NY. Plus easy to get to NY when I wanted. Or anywhere on the easy coast. It really just depends on the lifestyle you want.

Snorkeling and horseback riding? Vieques Puerto Rico is your place!

If I could afford the same quality of life is move to San Diego. But realistically Colorado is probably where I'd move tomorrow to if given the opportunity.

I’m tired of pivoting. I feel like my job has growth potential and I like my company. Also it seems like my company places a lot of emphasis on experience and I can only get that with time.

On the other hand I work on a small team and there is definitely room for improvement. I think the issue is the size of the team? Like, if there were 2-3 more people it wouldn’t be too bad.

I’m conflicted. Thoughts?

Hello,
I’m a junior data scientist and in my current job I mostly code using Pyspark (no machine learning) so I would like to work on a side project that could leverage my profile and data science/ML skills. What project would you advice me to work on ? (it can be a kaggle project, or a classic task that you do at your job, or a paper that you read).
I’m overwhelmed by the many suggestions online and would prefer to get a suggestion directly from professionals.
PS : I’m not a beginner.
