I do like where I live ...

So when I hear things about New England and it's history and culture and people, I tend to pay attention.

Just recently, the peeps over at GoFundMe declared we New Englanders to be the most generous:

We occupy the top three positions on their per capita donations rankings, and four out of the top five, and six of the top ten.

Despite this love of where I'm from, my wife and I are discussing where we want to live the rest of our lives.

It's not a decision to be made immediately. I'm currently enrolled in another degree program so I couldn't move immediately anyway. And she has a successful accounting practice here.

But long term ... It's this where we want to call home? It's an open discussion.

Do you love where you live?

Would you ever pick up and move?

What would motivate such a decision?

Is climate a good enough reason?

My wife and I called Virginia home for 53 years. My wife is originally from Rhode Island though. Then we retired and moved to Florida. We love the warmer weather here.

@Musicman Okay, we need to chat!! My wife is trying to get me to think more about Florida. I did own two investment rental condos in Saint Augustine for a couple years. Loved that area. Now we're planning a vaca to explore Southwest Florida (Fort Myers area). I would love to hear a New Englander's opinion of Florida. What does she think of the culture and people there? Are there too many New Yorkers???
