Does your company consider Louisville in the Southeast? It's Upper Midwest for my organization. Anyhow, I like it here. Summer weather isn't as extreme on the humidity side but winter can have some cold days.

Downside is so damn far from the ocean. Closest beach is nine hours. I'd prefer to be a bit closer.

Nashville would be a better mild climate choice and it's only six hours to the beach. Still not the crap hot summer that you'll have in Georgia.

Is it weird that Outkast is the only reason Atlanta is even somewhere I'd consider going?

I've enjoyed both Atlanta and Charlotte when I've been there. Plus good airports for commuting
:adios:

KY is not considered part of the SE by the company.

I already know that my largest customer is in GA. That said, they have offices spread around the country that I will be going to as well. The policy to have the client principles live in the same region as their accounts is a new company strategy.  My entire team is currently spread out across the country and are being told to move or be reassigned.

Atlanta and Houston would be great cities to live in when young and very annoying to live in with families.

They literally would be no better to live in than kc as a young person

If I were 23 and had a job I'd go right back to Boston.

let me guess why, it's because boston is the cultural center of paul revere?

I don't like Atlanta.  I've only ever been there once but it felt very spread out and Houston-y.  That said, what do I know.

That cheap house in Savanah looks amazing though.

Dodge City is super windy tho and smells like cow crap, so to each their own.

Yeah. I wasn't trying to say that the weather in Dodge City is better than Kansas City. It's just nothing at all like it.

Mild racism would be a step up from Texas.  I think we're going to take a weekend trip to Savannah to check it out. It's the front runner with my wife right now.

Check out Pooler and Richmond Hill areas. They're "suburbs" of Savannah and have good schools and relatively affordable real estate.

A couple restaurant recommendations in Savannah- Treylor Park, Alligator Soul, Cotton and Rye, Rocks on the River (shrimp and grits eggs Benedict for breakfast is amazing).
Thanks. My wife was already checking out houses in Pooler earlier today.

when my wife and i vacationed on Tybee Island a number of years ago I was kinda fascinated by the neighborhoods along Highway 80 that runs from downtown Savannah to the beach.  A quick look on Zillow tells me the area is Whitemarsh Island and Wilmington Island - it seems like a neat area that is sandwiched between the 3 things that make Savannah cool - the ocean, the river and the historic downtown. 

Hurricanes & flooding would be an issue there and the drive to airport is not a simple one.

You're going to be disappointed with tacos east of Kansas.

I guess i don't quite understand moving to a historically and architecturally rich but also somehow affordable city like savannah, and then choosing to live in a suburb that (other than the palm trees) is completely interchangeable with the whole of the USA
