Have a look at philadelphia - its a great city. Very attractive and great size - plus much more affordable than boston or ny - yet 2 hours from ny and washington dc - similar distance to the beach. Good climate (except summers which are hot and humid). It also has a good international airport - easy to get back to uk. It grts overlooked on the east coast for some reason - but really nice and improving city. On the west coast - portland oregon is supposed to be a great city - and the coast line along that bit of the us is gorgeous -but the time difference is tricky if you are wanting to keep in touch w uk - and its very expensive to fly back.

Oh what a million dollar question...

I have lived in Boston and like the person rom there I would really recommended it for the same reason. I also lived on the East Coast and it really has it all.

I also lived in India but it is not on your list, yet I would personally go back but visas have become a nightmare.

Having just moved to Devon from Camberwell, I can say with a certain degree of certainty that next time I move it will be for warmer climes and will probably go back home to the South of Italy because it is just fantastic - sun, sea, food, inexpensive, good quality of life... But again it is not on your list!

Good luck.

      For Plusnet, I pay £31.99 for Full Fibre 500.  (the number is the line speed you have paid for) I have recently recontracted.  Always phone them up, and ask what deal they can do for me.  Usually get a decent reduction.  Sue, I would suggest you call them, especially if you are close to contract renewal.  Sometimes they will change deals mid-contract, as I have found in the past.

      Delivery thefts on Oakhurst Grove

      By David Peckham · Posted

      The drivers generally have the same set area to cover every day, so they're fairly easy to follow - quite often on bike. They organise their drops to maximise how many they can do within a given time - there's actually software at the depot to do this before they set off - so they tend to follow the same route. Certain addresses are delivery hotspots, some have two or three drops a day from the various couriers. It all adds up doorstep deliveries being incredibly easy to target. I suspect Vladi's neighbour hasn't had their fake parcel nicked, not because of their security, but because the thief simply wouldn't have seen the driver stop there, so there's nothing to steal. The losses are factored in, driving prices up for everyone, and the drivers are treated abysmally. It's a dreadful business. It needs regulating.   Sorry, cross post with Angelina and Alec1

      Amazon seem to do this more and more now.  They don't even ring the doorbell, just leave them lying on the door step, then you find out it's been delivered when you check tracking.  The official Amazon vans are frequently followed on their routes by thieves and take the opportunities freely given.
