Give me a museum and I'll fill it. (Picasso) Give me a forum ...
Interesting. The two I know are San Antonio and South Bend. San Antonio has an incredibly low cost of living and plenty to offer, but you'd better be prepared for serious hot weather and not just during the official Summer months. South Bend would be great if you're a Notre Dame alum/fan and cost of living is low (but not as cheap as San Antonio). But if you're not, it's another run down post-industrial town with bitterly cold winters and plenty of snow. Chicago is a little too far to be accessible, although Lake Michigan is close (and wonderful IMO). But I can't imagine wanting to live there, and I live within 90 miles of there now.
