The shore, beaches, The mountains in the northwest part of the state.

Taxes, cost of living. Government corruption that makes the mafia look like the Boy Scouts

Rich Lambert 12-19-2009 06:53 PM

Weather sucks
Tax rate sucks
COL sucks
Traffic sucks

The place itself though, is PFM. Can't think of any other state I'd rather live in.

New Jersey & Oregon have much in common...Hell, I'd rather have the mafia run the state over the corrupt communistic current set-up. Things would be more efficient and the people would be served better.

What he said.

Also,
like: low housing prices, good economy
dislike: high property taxes, the way the sun destroys cars here

porsche4life 12-19-2009 09:10 PM

jyl 12-19-2009 09:19 PM

OR
Like - it's pretty easy to live here, its not overcrowded for the most part, shall-issue CHL
Dislike - weather, not a whole lot of professional oppt'y

BRPORSCHE 12-19-2009 09:28 PM

from a college kids perspective:

ability to get a 'real' job
TAXES!!!!!!!!!

m21sniper 12-19-2009 09:34 PM

Like: Pa is a STRONG pro 2nd amendment state, and beautiful country out to the West of the city. Nice mountains, skiing, hunting, etc if you're into that stuff. Only state cops can use radar.

Dislike: Philadelphia.

Rick V 12-20-2009 01:33 AM

Like: Mountains, and the ability to get away from everybody and everything within 1 hour, no matter where you are located
Dislike: The rest of everything that goes along with a state that caters to big biz. Gotta love living somewhere, where you can be fired, not given a reason, and have no recourse.

Dislike: It gets frickin' COLD!

I can't think of anything I don't like about Tennessee. I can see the Smoky Mountains and a TVA lake from my front yard. Good roads, great scenery, four seasons, no state income tax, some of the nicest people in the world...

Maybe...no good road courses close to my house. :)

Porsche-O-Phile 12-20-2009 04:47 AM

CA:

Loved the weather, the culture, the easy way of life, Disneyland, creative culture, etc.

Hated the taxes, the government, the traffic, the overcrowding, the endless parade of stupid morons that loved to act as though they had money (but didn't), the skyrocketing unemployment, the obligatory communal living (and associated idiot neighbors), the traffic, the filthy beaches, the occasional stench from east LA or the refineries, the cost of living (absurd), the deteriorating roads and infrastructure, the prevailing and entrenched socialist/pro-nanny-state mentality, etc.

NH:

Love the motto - "Live Free or Die". What America is/was/should be all about. Honest, legitimate economy with minimal unemployment. There are actually jobs here. Good ones. English-speaking people are a majority (unlike CA). Decent hiking/camping/skiing. No sales tax. Affordable. Honest. Real. Pleasant place to live.

I have always and will always hate winter. But I guess it's an excuse to work on my "indoor projects" including the cars. Property taxes bite (but OTOH, there aren't any others - see above). Too many provincial, flannel-wearing, uneducated schlubs for my liking.

What's the difference between a moose and a woman from NH?
10 lbs. and a flannel shirt :D

How do you compliment a guy from NH...
Nice tooth :D

Let me tell you Jeff, NH is 200% better then Kalyfornia east. I miss living there.

flatbutt 12-20-2009 05:34 AM

K9Torro 12-20-2009 05:52 AM

Likes: small town feeling no matter where you are, low cost of living, spring/fall/winter weather is very nice.

Dislikes: personal property tax aka ad valorum (pay when you get car tags), summer weather is very hot humid

My family on one side settled in California in 1863.

On the other side my family has only been here 2 generations before me.

THIS is my State.

I love the memory of what it was. The home of Nixon, John Wayne, & Ronald Reagan.

I love the weather. the beach & Mt. Baldy looming over me.

I love the fact that when I was younger I had hope for my state and country.

I loved going on epic mtn bike rides. 10 minutes later putting my bike back in my truck driving 2 miles to the surf.

I do love the fact that I can eat my way around the world in 4 blocks.

I love the fact that I have ART, Music, and some pretty intresting buildings and homes.

That this is where my family is and has been for years.

Great roads and towns to visit.


What I hate:eek:

That we have so many people here that people grow up with out any accountability. If you wrong someone don't worry you might never see them again in a area of 20 million people.

That since a great part of the populace grew up elsewhere that there's very little since of community. I love little towns with a "shop local attitude"

That our governor, and many of our repersenatives and senators are NOT Californians.

I hate it that they feel that they're part of the solution, not part of the problem.

That our state is a magnet for people that can't make it or are too odd to stay in a small town.

I hate it that our harbour brings in plenty of goods that end up in homes 2,000 miles away. However the smog from the ships,cranes and trucks that haul the items to you stays in our L.A basin.

I hate that it's very expensive to live here. It causes families to need both Mom and Dad to work to survive. This causes sons and daughters to be raised with-out proper supervision. Feral children turn into hoodlums.

I hate that the City of Los Angeles has 1/3rd of it's people who send a great sum of it's $$$ out of the country to support people in third world countries. This cash DRAIN is a huge part of why we have a great amount of poverty in our county.

I hate the grafiti, you can't see yourself in a mirror in a resturant's bathroom due to every third world gangbanger etching his gang's "placa" in every square inch.

I could go on but it just makes me want to move.
