Oh, yeah. Although it, along with all of Iowa, has seen some aging of the populace, that's changing as Des Moines (along with a similar Boise) heads in the direction of being a near-future tech boomtown.

careful arp, it's a dangerous place to be around food.

The other day in Des Moines, Iowa, a guy was arrested
after he hit his wife in the back of the head with an onion. It was
earlier this month, also in Des Moines, that a guy was charged with
attacking his father with a bag of Cheetos

If you're getting Vermont or Western Massachusetts (Northampton, Springfield, Pittsfield, Williamstown), you must like the cold, you are liberal, and like the arts.

What's wrong with DesMoines? I spent a year there programming a country station. I had a blast. That was the year the Iowa Barnstormers Arena Football team won the championship with Kurt Warner at QB. Our AM station was the flagship.

When I did mine, 80% were North Carolina/Virginia area with a few Midwesterns thrown in for good measure.

What's funny is that 5 of my "perfect" places are in liberal California. But yet my third place was uber-conservative Tulsa, Oklahoma. I seriously doubt that I would be happy anywhere in OK, much less Tulsa.

I was neutral on whether the government/culture is liberal or conservative.

Also, I hate it when it's really cold, but I also hate humidity. I don't mind dry heat.

There wasn't anywhere in WV that was on my list, so I guess I'm in the wrong place.
