Haha, I was about to comment "right here". I live in the small city where I was born, so within 30 minute walking distance of my parents, one of my sisters, and a few of my friends. It's amazing because our kids can play together and we can easily have the proud grandparents come over for help. Plus, friends can come over for a drink and then walk back home. I did live in Singapore, Vietnam, and the Canary Islands for a while, which was also great, but for different reasons. I'd say the focus on travel in here just shows that most HN readers are younger than me, so they don't have to plan for kids yet.
