Michigan.... I live 25 min from the D ( about 1 mile from the palace Home of the PISTONS), it is a busy lifestyle here, but it is also laid back at the same time. I like it cuz I am surronded by lakes in my area and 45 mins from Lake St. Clair. I was born and lived here for 23 years. The other four years of my life I lived in Tennessee. It was beautiful living down there in the mountains, but very SLOW.

you were being sarcastic right? 
I found a nice little sum-up, actually it was a chain on myspace for what Massachusetts is all about. And I can proudly say that it is all true 
"If your from the Bean..
Khakis are something you start the car with
You think crosswalks are for wimps
You think if someone's nice to you, they either want something or they are from out of town and probably lost
You know how to cross 4 lanes of traffic in 5 seconds
You think it's not actually tailgating unless your bumper is touching the car in front of you
You know that a yellow light means at least 5 more cars can get through ... and that a red light means 2 more can
A Crown Victoria = Undercover Cop
The transportation system is known as the "T"
Subway is a fast food place
You could own a small town in Iowa for the cost of your house
There are 24 Dunkin Donuts shops within 15 minutes of your house
When people talk about the "curse of the Bambino," you know exactly what they are talking about, and you believe in it too... or, did
You think of Rhode Island as the "deep South"
Anything past Worcester is "the middle of nowhere" (if you live in
Boston)
You believe using a turn signal gives away your plan to the enemy
If you stay on the same road long enough, it will eventually have 3 or more different names
Someone has honked at you because you didn't peel out the second the light turned green
You've honked at someone because they didn't peel out the second the light turned green
All the potholes just add excitement to your driving experience
Stop signs mean slow down a little, but only if you feel like it
Six inches of snow is considered a "dusting"
Three days of 90+ heat is definitely a "heat wave" ... and 63 weather is "on the warm side"
$15 to park is a bargain
You cringe every time you hear some actor/actress imitate the "Boston accent" on TV or in a movie. If you don't have it, you're never going to get it right ... even if you were born here
At the ice cream shop, you call chocolate sprinkles "Jimmies"
You can go from one side of your hometown to the other in less than 15 minutes and see at least 15 losers you graduated with doing the same exact same thing they were doing the last time you saw them.
You know how to say "Worcester," "Haverhill," "Peabody," "Gloucester," "Salisbury," "Pelham," and "Needham""

Half the city floods during the rainy season. Though I am thinking of moving there. I go second week of January every year anyway for the CES. Then I drop by and see a friend of mine as she works the AVNs every year.
the city has been working on the flood problems for decades and i must say there has been great improvments and it is still getting better
Yeah it's a great city, the AVNs were great except it was 3hr wait to see Jenna Jameson too long IMHO.
