      I myself haven't* but I've heard things, bad things.

      * = I've been to LA, San Francisco and NYC.


      So what's good about life in the "leftover USA"? I'd love to hear a differing opinion, but I can't guarantee I'll agree.

        • Why would you as a foreigner move to Chicago over NYC?

          • NYC is too damn expensive, that's why.
            I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

                Chicago smells better. Some people prefer the culture of Chicago. And so on...

                    • New Zealand is not that bad. My friend just went there on a tourist visa,
                      found work and remained. His girlfriend is allowed to stay with him. He's in
                      IT... networks and such. He tells me they need lots of workers there, the
                      country is huge and sparsely populated.

                      It's a bit of a backwater, literally, but if you're the family type, why not.

                        Now this I completely agree with. I loved living there and am still sorry we didn't get to do that meet up there.
