Seattle! Pros - Most beautiful city in the world 2 months per year - Nice neighborhoods filled with SFHs - Right next to an international airport (Seatac) that flies to Europe / Asia - So many tech employers, it's hard not to end up in a high paying job - Access to mountains and the Pacific ocean within a few hours drive - Non-religious Cons - Rainy 9 months per year - Summer months bring fires that make the air quality terrible during the few favorable months - Geography makes the traffic awful. All roads lead to choke points (AKA bridges) - Very visible homeless scene that have taken over most green spaces with tents, RVs, assaults, and fires - Surprising lack of VC funding for early stage startups - Public transportation isn't good enough to rely on. Might be a 20 - 30 minute walk to the nearest connivence store I moved out 4 years ago.
