Even disregarding the fact that your description here still doesn't meet the $1M bar you set in the original comment, you are using the general term "worth living in" to describe places you would live, which is way more elitist than is typical of HN.

I too would only live in a small subset of the country (a different, but not opposite, subset from you). But I would never do something as petty/hostile as describe those places as "the only places worth living."

Zero sympathy. The people who live in those places routinely complain about unfairness to them, while then voting based on bigotry and ignorance, jubilating in ICE's cruelty, etc. They have done worse than simply issued harsh words, and they deserve worse in recompense.

> you are using the general term "worth living in" to describe places you would live,

In general, anyone who uses the phrase is going to mean it subjectively.

But--there is a somewhat objective measure: property prices :)

And they are all higher in blue state coastal cities than in buttfuck Trump-loving nowhere.
