I'm sick of winter, it's -23 and usually march break week is usually "warm". I miss having a clean car, but the car is still quite fun to drive in the snow so I can't really complain...but yea I'm complaining To the OP, good thing you resist driving with the stock tires, you wouldn't go too far without good rubber!

oh man. I hate to see all that snow on that car. can you not take it to a garage or storage?
it's been raining here in the bay area and i have not taken my car out of the garage. any moisture on the road and the car gets locked up. |

low cost of living, 4 seasons per year, no large insects, no immigration problems like the south has, no earthquakes/tornadoes/hurricanes. the grass isn't always greener.

It's probably about the same, as long as you're comparing two rural areas and not including a high-pop city because that will drastically skew the results.

for someone that is a car enthusiast, I'd like to think they would enjoy somewhere that has minimal encounters with ice&snow unless they are big into wheeling
