Hi everyone on BP,

     I am looking for leads on cities or towns that I could possibly move to in the coming years. I currently live in the Wallkill which is about 10-15 from Newburgh. I've always wanted to live in New York City instead of the suburbs but the city is just far to expensive for me to begin investing anytime soon. the criteria for an ideal location is listed below 

1.Not a fan of very hot and humid summers. cough cough New York cough

2.Area where i could be relatively close to bike trails, hiking, skiing, and any other outdoor activities 

3.Prices close to the mid western market 

4.I do like being in a big city 

I have been considering highly of Denver and Indianapolis. Hopefully any BP members across the world could help.

@Angel-Ty L., are you going to grade and select your new potential city on weather, population, outdoor activities and home prices? Not sure if you are just asking from a quality of life perspective, or seeking a great place for REI (or both)?

    @Micheal Hastings , I most likely won't be attending grad school. I am looking for a balanced mixture of both. I don't want to live somewhere solely based on the city being good for REI.

    Denver and Indy are great places. Have you thought about Austin or Dallas or Florida?

     I haven't done any extensive research on those cities. I'm going to further research them. Thank you for the recommendation.

    Check out Denver and Salt Lake City. Reno is a pretty small city, but it's a cool place with good long term prospect as well.

    Last year my wife and I got a couple of SouthWest credit cards to get us above the 110,000 point threshold for a free companion pass. Anytime she got a ticket (paid or with points), I got a free ticket. Freaking sweet deal. We started to all the places we potentially wanted to move to.

    Angel,  your check off list is a very good fit for Salt Lake City. It is a beautiful city, with incredible out door activities.  It is the top of many list, all of them good. Check it. Best of luck!
