I think I’d still prefer living in a city on the East or West coast. I’m in the LGBT community, and I like living in a state with explicit legal protections against housing, healthcare, and employment discrimination. On top of that, the LGBT community has a lot of history in these cities, and lots of social groups to connect with. I also just enjoy city activities more!

A lot of people underestimate how important this is for us. So many countries in which I'd love to live are ruled out immediately, and we simply don't have the flexibility to only take into consideration cost of living, natural beauty, family, etc.

Relatively speaking, are very few places in the world where you can live a "normal" life as an LGBT person.
