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.

What are your thoughts about having to take an iq/personality assessment tests? It seems so outdated to me. I don’t think it predicts how you will truly perform at a job. I took a test like this for a startup once and they were concerned about my ability to speak up or behave in social settings. This was completely false. I present, interview clients, demo products, and facilitate meetings for a living. So what if I go home and shut down after work? I’m exhausted from speaking all day!
