Find Your Spot!

I think I might make Wednesday's my 'find something on the Internet to play with' day. Today?

http://www.findyourspot.com

It only takes a few minutes, you answer questions about your likes/dislikes in regards to your living situation and it spits out your ideal place to live according to your answers. When it came time to choose a geographic location, I chose "none" so it wouldn't limit my places. Funny. My top ten?

1. Lewiston, ME
2. Hancock-Houghton, MI
3. Plymouth, NH
4. Montpelier, VT
5. Johnson, VT
6. Durango, CO
7. Shelbourne Falls, MA
8. Plattsburgh, NY
9. Williamstown, MA
10. Lebanon, NH

Even if you have no intention of moving anywhere, it's still fun and who knows? You might find that you're living exactly where you want to. Or, damn close.

Maggie said...

Ceour d'Alene is a big drug town because its close to the border.

Amy, I think you cheated because I know you want to live in Colorado.

Here's mine:
1. Lewiston, Maine
2. Ketchikan, Alaska
3. Seward, Alaska
4. Camden, Maine
5. Saranac Lake, New York
6. Saugatuck, Michigan
7. Littleton, New Hampshire
8. Windham, New York
9. Hancock-Houghton, Michigan
10. Steamboat Springs, Colorado (No, I'm not even kidding, I guess I'm doing pretty well!)

I also had Jackson, Aspen, Vail, and Durango.

I don't know why they gave me ones in the east because I said I hated humidity.

This was fun.

22. Truth or Consequences, New Mexico

Funny I don't even really like the beach that much. I guess hating the snow and humidity limit the places you can live.

Scott's List:

Maggie said...

I made Paige do it... She got Cleveland, Ohio. HAHAHAHAHA. Then her second one was Albany, New York. HAHAHAHA.

amy said...

Looks like Scott and Loni should be considering the Green Mountain State...or, Truth and Consequences (??) what an odd name for a town.

Mag, I did have ONE CO town in my top ten, and I read about it - sounds like a nice place. Cleveland and Albany? ick.

Marc...I remember you saying Lewiston sucked.
