I've thought of those places for sure. Aren't they a bit expensive? Do you live there?
Funny you'd say Oregon, given your username.

Denver is a really nice city to live in IME, tons of stuff to do
The main problem is that rent here is ridiculously expensive
That and all the homeless people trying to bum money all the time

Lion said: Hey Pubbers. I haven't posted here in a long time, but I've been mulling a move back to the USA after years living abroad, and I want to get some opinions on what city or area I should choose.
What's important to me is being able to be outdoors a lot, preferably with excellent hiking opportunities around. Indoor rock climbing gyms would be great. Nearby beaches with waves would be good too but you can't have everything.
Good local food (restaurants, pubs, and co-ops/organic food markets/farmers markets) and a vibrant local music scene would be lovely too.
General chill vibes, friendliness of people there, and any other interesting cultural stuff going on, also factor in. And of course there's got to be some kind of local job market and affordable housing. I mean I'd love to live in Northern California / the PNW, but realistically I think I'd be more comfortable financially in the southeast. I'm not actually sure what I'd do about work if I moved back Stateside, but I hope that if I find the right location, the right livelihood will find me.
Thank you. 
it sounds to me like you want Vancouver BC, not the US... and dont forget, trump is president now so you dont really want to live here anyway

I always think about Boulder, never given much thought to Denver. Seems like it might be just a bit too big for what I'm looking for. I've been living in very large cities and want something smaller and quieter.

Indeed, you might have a point, stranger!

I've not been to Boulder yet, from what I've heard it's a total hippie town if you're into that scene
I don't blame ya for not wanting to live in a big city anymore tho, Denver is definitely a pretty hectic place to live, it's the first "big city" I've ever actually lived in and I definitely prefer more rural areas, but finding a job here was a piece of cake for me

Flagstaff az is cool. It doesnt have the beach but there's good hiking there and in surrounding areas, sedona (a supposed chakra of the world) and the grand canyon. For the SE, charleston sc is a nice historic beach town. I've heard good things about st. augustine Fl too.

cities are expensive to live in but they have the best music scene.
I recommend Portland and Eugene as well. Washington has some good ones, Seattle and Tacoma come to mind. I know theres hiking and nature for sure.
Cali is expensive but nice.

I live in a place in California called the Mojave Desert. When settlers first were given land here they actually gave it back to the government because the land was thought to be completely inhospitable. It gets to 110°F in the summer and Easily 20°F in the winter with up to 70 mile an hour winds(although it's only gotten that high a few times. If you choose the West Coast do yourself a favor and move to Northern Cal,Colorado,Oregon or Washington. Theres tons of really nice beaches in SoCal and amazing unique desert but most folks who move here regret it soon after.

Boulder seems like a really lovely place.
If you are open to the northeast(we have outdoor recreation too! and definitely have indoor rock climbing gyms, the largest indoor one on the east coast is right here in Philly, but I don't think Philly is what you're looking for - I think you'd probably love some of the smaller towns in SE PA like New Hope, or a city like Bethlehem which has a pretty good music scene and is under 100k in population but is close to NYC/Philly and close to the mountains) maybe take a look at Burlington, Vermont? Really lovely, forward thinking small city. The rents will be higher than the southeast, but lower than Denver and Boulder/Northern CA/any big city.
In the south I would recommend checking out Asheville, NC.

You should move to Watts in South Los Angeles, California. It's paradise.

Lots of food for thought here, thanks.

Asheville right now is my top choice. I'd never even thought about PA - I've been through Bethlehem but don't remember it well. There are a couple very small towns in PA I like, like New Oxford.
