Lake Havasu City, AZ
the last, best place -
2/21/2011I spent 50 years in Illinois. Great for what it was, but: weather, taxes and congestion drove me to consider a change. Moved to Lake Havasu City to continue my current career. I would NEVER go back. Climate, people and overall environment are unparallelled. Winter snowbirds are a mixed bag, but nothing objectionable; spring break college kids are...college kids.
Negatives: commercial air would be nice; a Costco would broaden shopping a bit. Economy is soft: like every other place in the country. Upside: 60some thousand residents. Downside: 60some thousand residents.
Never leaving.
