I could only give places that pique my interest and seem good to me. But I don't know what you need specifically. I recommend you get on wikipedia and search a bunch of little places across multiple states, and also search google for things like, "Best towns to live in USA", or "greenest cities to live in USA", or "most outdoorsy cities to live in USA" to start getting lists and knowing more. That's how I started learning about it. I also really enjoyed learning about all the little places, and it's a bonafide research rabbit hole if that's your sort of thing: weather, taxes, sports, politics, culture, economy, transport, food, history, lifestyle, geography. There's such variety and distinctness! I mean, you can cut the pie anyway you like and I bet there's somewhere in the US to suit you.

Atlanta - amazing suburbs if that's your thing. Not dirt cheap, but Forsyth county is reasonably priced and has amazing schools.

  Forsyth is okay as long as you’re not a minority who dares venture into the older parts of Forsyth and stay in the newer parts. These folks aren’t all dead. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WErjPmFulQ0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WErjPmFulQ0 Source: I lived there from 2016 until last year and I still have a house there. I moved out of state late last year. I do love the burbs of Forsyth county though.

    You’re getting downvoted but this is a real thing: for instance, in Belfast, almost everybody is white, so if you’re not white, you’re probably gonna feel a little bit uncomfortable in some places. Just like if you’re white and you go live in the suburbs in Abu Dhabi maybe you’re gonna feel a little bit uncomfortable because you know you’re not part of the dominant race. This is just the unfortunate reality of humans as we are stupidly tribal and racist inherently.

      It’s not just about race though. People moving into Forsyth over the last decade are transplants from up north and other parts of Atlanta are part of the “professional class” as the population has grown. They are the “college educated white suburban” group that have completely different attitudes than the people who have been in Forsyth forever.

Madison, WI. Love it here and built our company here. But you need to be able to handle cold and snow.

I would recommend looking for a city that has a decent size college or university.
