So. Orange County - Southern California. This includes, Irvine, Lake Forest, Mission Viejo, Aliso Viejo, Rancho Santa Margarita, Ladera Ranch, Laguna Niguel, Laguna Hills, San Clemente. Can't go wrong living at these places, other than expensive housing. Hell, I just moved to Lake Forest a month ago and its very nice. And, yes the house cost over half a million, but its worth it.
If you are young and single, live in the Los Angeles area.
If you are married and starting a family like myself, then live in So. Orange County.

I would love to liver were Dan P. lived in Mansfield,Ohio.. What a great location and house was very pretty. The overall location of the place was just great for any car enthusiest. So I would pick Ohio for a for more reasons than that.. There are plenty of rennlist members and also almost anywere in ohio is at most a 3 hour drive to one of the best sports cars facilitys in the world.. (Mid-Ohio) ....The roads for cruises are some of the best in the world and there is very little traffic or even cops on the rural routes..

Wo, I'm going to disagree with Fishey. Cops in Ohio suck, they're like cockroaches.....everywhere. I got a ticket for doing 70 on I-71. There is nothing in Mansfield except Mid-Ohio. The roads curve a little and are not heavily traveled but the road surfaces are bad and there are no hills. Oh yea, watch out for the Amish. I grew up in SE Ohio and absolutely LOVED driving there. The roads were like your own personal racetrack (except for the deer). I could drive for 20 miles on beautiful curvy road without seeing another car or house. That was the only plus to living there though. I'm not trying to **** anyone off as all of my family lives in Ohio including Mansfield. Just my observations.

Personally Ohio has the best back roads I have seen for condition (road surface). I hate driving in the south because you run into alot of dirt roads and up north all the roads suck in every state...

The first cigarette I ever had I smoked behind Grandpa's barn. It made me dizzy, and I coughed a lot.
"Don't worry, that always happens with the first one," said Grandpa. "Try another one." And you know, he was right.

I've got to speak up for Atlanta
Been here all my life and I don't have any complaints. I live in a great community just outside the perimeter and have great neighbors. We've got a number of good repair shops here and as far as tracks - Road Atlanta is just up the way. PCNA headquarters is here and Jim Ellis is a decent dealership. Cops don't bother anyone for 10 over and on the perimeter you can easily do 20 over without being noticed(Actually required practically to keep from being run over). The local porsche club may be set in their ways but we've got a good group of 944 and 968 owner's that meet up every once in a while. Real esate values are holding up and the job market is decent. The airport is the main hub for practically any flight in the US and IMHO the weather is great. Nightlife activities have always been overrated in general in my book - I enjoy spending time with family in my spare time....

Don't come here. We don't got non of that stuff. Your not even allowed to go to a race track if you live here. It's against the law.
Its snows 8 moths out of the year.
Go away, don't move here.

Harry- we GOTTA keep you away from Tifo..
Ohio is nice- I agree. more temperate winters than Illinois. Good people and good backroads. I havent seen more than 10 cops since I've been here. there are 4 Hooters within a 20 mile radius.
If you like bugs, bad drivers and old people move south east. (Fl, Ga)
besides- Ohio is home of 944 fest. You've tried the rest now try the 'fest.

How about Sebring? ANG unit right up the road, if you don't like that one (artillery I think), there are tons more around. The unit trains at Avon Park Gunnery range, 15 min away. Sebring Intl Raceway is in town, Moroso Motorsports park is an hour away, Homestead is 2 hours. Orlando is 1 hour, beaches 1 hour to west, Tampa 1 1/2 hours away. Hot as hell in summer, very nice in winter. The town is growing like gangbusters. Plus the 12hrs in your backyard each March!
