What's your opinion on the "best" state to live in the United States? The answer is no doubt California. Why? We have a diverse climate and geography. We have the most diversity in ethnicity from 58 different countries. We have better beaches than any other coast. We also have one of the most productive agriculture areas in the world and the largest in any of the U.S. We also have great aerospace, petroleum, and computer and information technology. Our economy ranks in the top ten in the world. Oh yeah, it doesn't hurt that the majority of people in California are far more better looking. We got Los Angeles, and the sandy San Diego beaches, and the ever clear warm temperature in the Bay Area.

Are you kidding me... New Jersey is where it's at. I must admit though, I think I am a Californian trapped in A Jersey Boys body.

Beaches, we lose. We have tons of agriculture too, and we have NASA and the MD Anderson Cancer Research which is a world renowned cancer treatment center (in Houston). From what I've heard y'alls weather rivals ours for warmth. We're bigger than y'all. We use y'all. We use the death penalty. If someone kills a Texan, we kill them back. We're more affordable to live at. We're not smug. I'm sorry but New Jersey's New York's armpit. |

QUOTE We use the death penalty. If someone kills a Texan, we kill them back I like that, I vote for Texas. I would say my own state but I personally don't like it. We have a few cities that are the top 10 list of safest cities to live in. We have some pretty decent schools for sports and medical... yea its not that great. |

NEW YORK CITY is where it's at. But that's not a state.  No but seriously. New York as a state is pretty cool. We got quiet suburbs, small towns/cities, and the best city in the world. Transportation is really easy to and from the far reaches of the state to the hub. We get all four seasons. The best water. |

I vote for California, not Southern California and not Oakland. Nice scenery; I don't hear them say, "car" like "cah"; great shopping; great schools; the environment in California is much nicer than places in the East coast.

Wisconsin. Cause no one gives a shit about wisconsin, there will never be a telethon about all the people who die of heatstroke each year or how everyone in wisconsin has diabetes because of all the cheese, no, no one gives a f**k about wisconsin. And you might be thinking "Well then why would that be the best state to live in?" Because of one reason. When I say "no one" cares about wisconsin, that means "No One." No Hillary Clinton bitch, no Barack Obama n-word, no george bush, no ted kennedy, and especially (and this is the most important), no terrorists. You will never in your life hear about terrorists bombing fuckin wisconsin (to all the brave men and women who have dedicated their lives to Wis-Tap, the wisconsin anti-terrorist movement, you have wasted your lives. Go kill yourself, preferably in a suicide bombing(LETS GET THIS BITCH ON THE MAP!!!)).

Why do most immigrants go to California as their top choice when moving to the U.S?

Because they arrive by boats, and they have to land somewhere on the coast. Angel or Ellis Island.

I think California and Texas right now are very close to a tie.
If you'd like tremendous variety of geography (deserts to redwood forests, mountains, beaches and lakes), great weather, interesting variety of people, good economy, and a mostly left-learning philosophy, come to California. If you like the geography of prairies, plains, piney woods and gulf beaches, really hot/cold weather, cowboy consciousness coupled with a few cultural centers, and a mostly right-learning philosophy (its death penalty executions are four times as high as any other state), visit Texas. |

People land in California because it takes up the bulk of the western coast. Also there's a lot of work for immigrants. Texas has the same issue. We get all the walk-overs and the certified lawn mowers.
