My college, Brockblox.

>>762866
I'm from Pittsburgh, PA, USA.

It's an affordable place to live, lots of small ethnic communities, and it really is beautiful. But there's a lot of crime, and the weather is terrible.

I've lived all over the country, but I currently reside in Austin, Texas.

You can pretty much figure out everything there is to know by studying this picture.
We're a giant suburb with a lake.

>>762889
Where's that? I keep looking at the plants, but I can't figure it out.

>>762922
I'm glad I grew up in the inner city, oddly enough. Being in the suburbs seems weirdly alienating.

>>762922
why is there a black person painted on that wall?

>>762925

University of Hawaii at Hilo on the Big Island of Hawaii. Those are the dorms. Sorry for the terrible resolution, but I'm just pulling these out of an old Photobucket.

Errrr... Yeah... This is from the city I live in... It's in Canada. Try to guess where.

Good city except for the perverted statues outside the education board headquarters.

>>762986
That's awesome. I always wanted to live in Hawaii, but that's not an original or groundbreaking thing to hope for.

Are you from there originally, out of curiosity?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swinoujscie

Pic is closest to how I remember it from before I moved out in my early teens. It has changed... back in the years directly after the democratisation (~1990-1995?), blocks of flats used not to be painted in such showy, bright colours...

I miss the old times. That's why I like photos from North Korea. ;_;

>>762944
It's really not that bad. When you're a little kid you don' give a fuck. It's the same shit as being in a city in that regard. You find people your age and you do stuff. Worst comes to worst you have to get your mom to drive you somewhere.
It's when you hit about 20 or so and realize the entire place lacks any culture whatsoever that it starts getting mindnumbing. But I don't blame it for that. It was built for people to raise families in. That is literally it's purpose. Cheap housing for newlyweds and their spawn.
Long Island can be a very beautiful place, but for the most part the default mindset everybody who comes here has is "meh". Because really, it's just 125 miles of urban sprawl and housing.

Define hometown.

I grew up in a small town in Ontario. It was nice enough once you got past the hicks, but I'm never going back now.

My home is Montreal. I am far more at home in a city than any town, and I know it as well as I knew the town in Ontario, even though I haven't lived here as long. Honestly, though, I probably won't stay more than a couple more years here, I want to try other places. Home is just where I am at the moment, there's nowhere ultimately that I think I should be. Montreal as awesome, though.

>>762944
The suburbs has to be the worst place to live. All you hear in the day time is lawn mowers and at night crickets.

>>763012
Awesome. I always wanted to go to Poland....

Phoenix, AZ; USA.
>Pros
Idk lol weather I guess. It's not like I do anything but sit on the computer all day...
>Cons
Boring, ugly, crime

>>763031
Went through Phoenix once on my way to Los Angeles, took a layover at the bus station. I thought it was pretty there, but holy shit that heat just destroyed me

>>763009

Yup, born and raised--though I've lived all over the island. At one point I lived in the mountains, and we had a wild bull who grazed next to our house.

It's beautiful here--unless you're allergic to plants.

>>762979
It's a Native American women.
The story goes: This Indian chief tried to force his daughter to marry some douchebag from another tribe, and that crazy bitch was all like "Fuck that, Imma go drown myself". Then she went and drowned herself. Now every 7 years she supposedly kills somebody or something.

>>763057
Man, I wouldn't fuck any of those people

>>763021
As opposed to the beautiful sounds of car engines and screaming couples in the next apartment? Why is silence a bad thing?

And no, we all know Detroit is the worst place to live.

Where is it?
>Utica, NY. A good 4 hours from NYC.
Pros/cons of living there?
>Pros: Cheap housing
>Cons: Run by mafia, there is absolute shit nothing to do, everyone sucks
Did you ever leave?
>I've never moved, but I've been all over the US on tour and just various road trips.
If so, where?
>Johnny_Cash-Ive_Been_Everywhere.midi

>>763057
How does it feel to be so white, whitey?

>>763057
I'm jelly. That must have been an amazing place to grow up....

>>763085
I knew a guy who lived in a punk house in Utica, he had nothing but good to say about it.

>Where is it?
Switzerland
>Pros/cons of living there?
Pro:
-It's usually relatively quiet
-Lots of skying areas
-It's white as hell.
Cons:
-Everybody knows you. If you fuck up, everyone will know what you did and they won't forget...
-Movies arrive in cinemas months after their official release if at all (one of the reasons I pirate a lot)
>Did you ever leave?
Well, I go on holiday every year, so yes. Next year I'll move to Zurich.
>If so, where?
I've been to the USA, Italy, France, UK, China, Bali, Dubai, Egypt, Greece, Hungary, Germany, Netherlands, Austria, Spain, Portugal & Thailand on holiday.

Panama city, Panama

Pros: cheap as fuck, nice beaches, relatively safe and calm.

Cons: underdeveloped, conservative, the average panamenian is a ignorant fuck

i've only lived outside for a small number of months in seoul and san antonio texas

shameless tourism advertising

>>763094

I'm Puerto Rican/Portuguese.

>Where is it?
Middle of fucking nowhere. Patagonia, in southern Argentina, against the Andes. El Bolson.
>Pros/cons of living there?
It's nice, awesome weather, lots of lakes, lots of cool people. On the other hand, bad latency for internet, and middle of fucking nowhere, which makes travelling a bit more expensive, and there's not much to do in the winter. Also, not many people around, which limits options with women. I do have a girlfriend though.
>Did you ever leave?
Yes.
>If so, where?
Buenos Aires for college, no options here. Now back here working. I do travel often too, backpacked 3 months in total this year, mostly in europe.

>Cambridge Ontario Canada,
>Pros-Beautiful seasons, Good food, Quiet, Forest.
>Cons Mosquitoes,Cyclones,Boring,Stinks(farms)
>I left there when I was 5.
In Las Vegas.

Where is it?
>The UK - Hereford
>Pros Countryside 99.9% white, castles and shit.
>Cons- Boring as shit. Polish people.

>>763182
Hey rich guy, give me a dollar.

>>763199
You live in fucking Patagonia? You lucky son of a bitch. I had a picture from Patagonia as my desktop for a long time, it looks beautiful there.

Big Spring Texas.

It blew up once, pic related. Was exciting. Surprisingly enough only one guy was injured. There are no pro's to living here. Just cons.

>>763194
i must say your face looks nice. i am puerto rican too, but my peruvian blood fucks my face up.

>Salem, Massachusetts
>rich history, near the ocean, cute girls
>tourist trap, if you listen carefully during the night you can hear the souls of the damned cry out in misery

>>763203
Las Vegas,

Pros-
Good if you live to party.

>>763173
A punk house?
Well, I've always thought it would be a cool place to live if you knew the right people.

I've never met a single punk here in my life.
I am pretty involved in the music scene, too. Although I don't do drugs or anything so that might have something to do with it.

>>763203
Sup nigga, galt born an raised right here. If your preston or hespeler then were glad to be rid of you

>>763321
Pro- Great and plentiful restaurants.

Cons- No Justice, Cops are complete assholes.

Swansboro, North Carolina

>Pros- low crime, very friendly people
>Cons- little to do if you don't like fishing

It's not a very pretty place.
Overrun with drugs.

Winchester

Pros:
>Beautiful, beautiful town
>Mostly friendly people
>The students are mostly nice
>Some of the best schools & colleges in UK.
>Literally surrounded by large major cities, meaning town stays relatively pure
>Being surrounded leads to very good transport & infrastructure

>Cannot into technology

Left for Wales to go to Uni. I don't really miss is that much tbh

Moscow

Nice looking city, interesting history, very big, got lots of things there

It's violent and sometimes too big. Roads are bullshit, almost impossible to drive through. People are often assholes.

I left to travel a lot, then settled in Petersburg.

>>763512
I've wanted to live in Moscow forever. It just looks so....interesting.

Adelaide, South Australia
pros
>great place in general, beaches great weather
cons

Austin, Texas

Pros:
-Jerbs, jerbs, jerbs. Seriously, what recession?
-Best place to live in the world if you play music professionally (like me)
-Fantastic music happening SOMEWHERE every night of the week
-Great local culture with museums, art cinemas, and so forth
-The Alamo Fucking Drafthouse. Real food + movies + special showings of awesome stuff all the time.
-Tex-Mex
-End of an Ear is the greatest record store ever
-You can go out dressed however you please, nobody really gives a shit

Cons:
-Slowly dying thanks to an influx of Californians looking for jerbs, the condos they're moving in to crying about the live music being too loud, and a city council that's completely pants-on-head retarded
-Even I, a relatively liberal guy, find a lot of people here swing way too far to the left
-90% of UT kids are the worst people you'll ever meet
-Hipsters, hipsters everywhere
-Usually ok if a little hot during the summer, but some years (such as this past one) it's absolutely unbearable, with monthlong stretches of 105 degree plus weather at like 90% humidity

Born here, raised here, going to die here. I'm not fucking leaving no matter how many yuppie Californians jam their way in. I will be that crotchety old man reminding youngsters about the good ole days when Austin had less than a million people and there were still places to see music that didn't charge $40 a head.

>>763020
Fucking Anglo scum from Ontario.

>>763600
Forgot my pic. Mewtbloxxx.

Courtenay, BC

Let's start with the pro's.

NOW THE CONS, MOTHERFUCKER!

> ignorant, closed-minded locals

> NO bar/club scene.

> rednecks, rednecks errywhere.

> the natives aren't the best either

> not a lot of work or opportunity here

shit sux.

>>763600
Brofist. I'm in Austin, as well.

This summer was fucking hellacious, there are hipsters everywhere, Californians and New Yorkers fucking everything up, Red River is pretty much shutting down, and I actually kinda hate it here now. But I remember when it was awesome, bruh. I remember.

Also, End of an Ear is fucking amazing and I salute you, good sir

Medellin, Colombia.

Pros:
>Beautiful girls, probably the best in the world, and I'm not talking about the slutty "fake tits" girls, I'm talking about the real classy regular girls, beautiful
>Fantastic nightlife, one of the best in South America, great parties
>Great places to live for people with money, I mean, 5 star places

Cons:
>Drug dealers
>Crime
>Corrupt politicians, corrupt police
>Poverty, misery in some places

>>763727
That's a sweet picture. I want to live in Columbia, and traffic narcs across the Darien Gap

>>763747

I'ts a great place to live, but I say that because I'm a middle/high class guy who will probably leave this place some day.

You won't believe the things that happen here in the "slums".

>>763031
>>763085
>>763185
>>763199
>>763727
these places look amazing

>>763794
Like what? (curious)

In America we just sell drugs and shoot one another.

>Where is it?
Los Angeles, CA
>Pros/cons of living there?
Pros: Everything is in close proximity (especially if you have a car)
Cons: Traffic, disgusting people, rent is higher here
>Did you ever leave?
I wish. I would like to move to another state.

>>763864
>>763864

At some point of the early 2000's we had a total war being held in the slums and I'm not talking about this gang against the other, I'm talking about paramilitary right-wing forces against left-wing militias against the forces of the state, all of them fighting for the control of the drug territories. The war has now turned to be between two of the most big mafias in the world. You have 12 year old kids fighting for their side, some crazy shit happening in there. The law it's only allowed to punish people older than 18, so you have these gangs recruiting 14 and 15 year olds to do the dirty jobs.

As I said before, I don't live in those places but I'm sure a lot more crazy things happen in there and there are probably tons of stories about crime and shit in there.

Colombia has been growing as a country in the past years, I won't deny that but everything you have heard about Colombia... in reality it's probably ten times worse.

Victorville,CA

Pros
>Romanticism of cowboy lifestyle
>Only hours away from Vegas or LA
>Plenty of desert to off-road in if you're into that.

Cons
> Conservative as all hell (I jokingly call this place "little Texas")
>Boring as fuck, especially on the weekends since everyone goes out of town then.
>Lots of crime,gangs
>Expensive as duck to live in.

>>763971
Holy shit...that is so much better/more interesting than I ever could have imagined. Currently googling around on Columbian slumwars.

Thanks for the informative response, anon.

>It's on Long Island.
>Pros: It's pretty peaceful for the most part, and there's tons of trees and plant life.
>Cons: There's not a lot to do for entertainment short of going to the shops downtown. It's also located near a not so nice area where there's lots of crime, but nothing bad from it ever really spills into our town.
>I've lived here since I was two, so no.

>>763727
earlier panamafag
Medellin is awesome, people treat you so nicely. And i agree with the partying.

Its a shame that people here have this unreasonable xenophobia for colombians...

>>764100

Fuck yes and thank you very much! Braced to peruse. This shit is so interesting.

I grew up in a crime-ridden and violent neighborhood in the United States, but this makes my childhood seem bucolic.

>>764049

Forgot to add, I've lived here since I was 5, but I want out.

Can anyone guess where this is?

>>764145
Bump for curiosity

Colombianfag here
its not really that bad.

Bogota

pros
>you can find anything here, any type of food, entertainment etc
>colombian women are not superficial at all (except a few from medellin and the coast)
>educated colombian women are surprisingly intelligent (just had an hour long conversation with my gf about the badder-meinhof effect and just how much involved was the church in the censoring and condemnation of cientific advances in the early renaissance, mierda was so cash!)
>people are overall polite, no such things as that alpha, beta etc bullshit here
>weed is so fucking cheap, ive never even bought any, my friends just give it to me for free
>black people are probably nicer than white people here, I hate it when americans assume that just because something is bad in their country it implyes thats the way itis everywhere

cons
>this place is getting filled with americans and europeans who do nothing but spread their shitty belief system everywhere they go (ie: arabs and muslims are horrible people, well maybe in your shitty ass countries but here they have done nothing but improve the economy, and help their country (this is mostly in reference to christian arabs and jews), muslims are probably the smartest people Ive met here, not to mention theyre tolerant as fuck and newcomers assimilate very easily)
>somewhat unsafe
>poverty is very prevalent
>youll spend a minimum of 1 hr on bus/car to get anywhere here
>expensive as fuck, even though the average annual wage here is around us 7,000, the cheapest a middle class apartment located in the city will go for is around us 100,000
>hipsters
>weeabos

Cordoba, Argentina
Can't think of any pros/cons right now
I never left

Hampton, New Hampshire
Pros: all types of weather, not far from Boston, not far from the Mountains, also Atlantic ocean

Cons: FUCKING SUMMER. holy fucking tourists. it's like 90% minorities (you know what i mean) during the summer. if you live on the beach, you can only leave your house during monday-thursday due to traffic.

Also, it looks better in the picture than it actually is.

>>764478

I always thought that New England was beautiful. Maine, Vermont, Massachusetts, and New Hampshire.

Boston, MA

>pros
aesthetically pleasing, great history, tons of cool shit to do all the time. never gets boring. also drugs.
>cons
fuck the people who live here. seriously. fuck them. talk about a bunch of snobby assholes.
>did you ever leave? if so, where?
never. i've lived here all my life. overall not too bad.

>>764754

Nothing beats rolling into Boston on Route 2 East and catching that glimpse of the city as you barrel down that hill.

You know the one.

Love it.

miami, fl
pros
weather during the winter (i hate the cold)
i like that there are so many immigrants, white americans get on my nerves
i like what the immigrants bring with them-- the food, culture, easy to keep up my spanish
growing cultural life (ie art, music, etc)
cons
cubans-americans are generally horrible people who still hold the bay of pigs as a reason to keep voting republican
everything is very expensive
everything is corrupt so nothing improves (mass transit, the police, etc)
too many new yorkers move down here and then complain about how much better new york is (then go back, we won't miss you)
all the people who move in from the rest of the US make sporting events awful to go to (more mets/phillies fans there than marlins fans, more knicks fans than heat, etc)
weather during the summer is like a circle of hell

I did leave, for college. I went to a school in western massachusetts and then to one in Sarasota. The one in West Mass was pretty cool except when it snowed (I hated it) and the change to a rural surrounding was very new to me. Sarasota was closer to home but I liked it, it had a lot to offer for a smaller place.

Greece, Serres, 100k population

Pros:
>Non existant crime

>20 minutes away from skiing center, 40 minutes away from beach.

I've been all over europe and all over greece as well, i wouldn't want to live anywhere else. (Maybe Tromso in Norway, that was a cool town).

>>764622
Hampton beach is just hella dirty and filled with hispanics in the summer, and drug addicts in the winter.

Slatersville, RI

>Pros

Snobby soccer moms
>Did you ever leave
Yes, lived in providence while going to school. Never go to providence unless you're just passing through, it smells bad and you'll probably get in a car accident.

>>764754

I want to move to boston so fucking badly, looking at getting an apartment in cambridge after I graduate.

>>764622

I love how no one ever mentions rhode island ever in the course of anything unless comparing hurricane sizes.

>>765258

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caucasian_race

this is a highscool picture from 1999

you may think that a more scandinavian/germanic look is "white" but that's just a fallacy.

Milwaukee is the slum of Wisconsin.

Anyway, I live in Madison, Wisconsin
Pro:great culture, big enough to be fun, UW Madison, low crime, near a bunch of shit
Con:winter driving
Left:Cancun, canada, the bahamas, and a lot of places in the US

>>765438

First, that's not dark skin. Next, they have the typical caucasian anatomy signs.

They are a subject of caucasians, namely Mediterranean Caucasians. Which, unfortunately, is a term no longer used, because it isn't that specific, and the variations from the regular causasian aren't that many.

So yeah, they are caucasians.

>>765438

well then you don't understand what caucasian means, that's fine, people are morons most of the time, you don't have to feel bad.

But nevertheless, don't pretend to know when going : this is white, this is not, that you know what the fuck you are saying.

glad we cleared that up

>>765438
they are Mediterraneans from what i can tell.

mediterranians fall into the white race spectrum. it goes from darkest to lightest:

med < atlantid < north atlantid

atlantid is the dark version of a nordid.

>>765486
They may be Caucasian, but they are not white.

Helsinki, Finland

Pros:

Ah, my New Englandfags. I'm driving up 95 to come back home for winter break. I cannot wait to see that fuckin bridge!

Chicago, Illinois.
>>Pros:
Good food, easy to get around unless you're on the fringe of the city. There are nice places for pretty cheap compared to New York, I hear
>>Cons:
Some places you really have to watch your back. Lots of hipsters and fucking suburbanites. Those fuckers always raise rents.
>>Have I ever left?
Never lived outside of Chicago. Always been on the West or Northwest side.

>>764860
Personally love the view from Rt. 20 in Watertown by the old Armory when you can catch the skyline.

-lots of weed and hash

Cons:

-fucking hot and heavy pollution in summer
- Small city, lots of people know each other

Did you ever leave?
Nope

>>765600
According to classification North Africans, Semites and Indo-Iranians are Caucasian. They are also not white

Kentucky

Pros-Small town, nice amount of places to eat, good internet, fucking amazing bbq

Thomaston, GA.
>Pros
Very quiet
Very rural if you're into that sort of thing
>Cons
Cops are dumbasses that will arrest you for weed and being gay, but can't solve a murder worth shit.
People are asshole rednecks
Its a fucking small shitty town
Incredibly racist
Run by neo-conservative evangelical skin heads
Incredibly homophobic
Incredibly religious
Nothing to do
Prepare to have bricks thrown in your house if you are liberal (happens to me all the time. I now use the bricks as decoration)
I can go on forever.

Hey I don't know the odds but I'm from Hampton NH too.

I've lived here all my life. Went to Winnacunnet, and I probably know >>764478 from school.

>Oxenhope, England.

same fag forgot the pros and cons

pros- close to a lot of shit, lots of people, lots of shit to do, right by manhattan, easy to get weed, etc.

cons- my whole family is from there so there's a lot of people who know me/my family so it can be a little restrictive, know too many people there i don't like, and surprisingly the whole small town everyone knows everyone shit doesn't just apply to small towns works that way in brooklyn too

i did leave, i live in the middle of nowhere right now gonna move to philly soon...i love brooklyn/the city but i'd like to be far away from the people i knew there...don't really want to get re-involved in all the bullshit there.

Wassup LI bro.

>Valley Stream, NY
>Generic suburb of NYC that has become increasingly urbanized as time goes on
>Pros: Schools were good when I was in 'em, shopping close I suppose, beach and Manhattan ~30 minutes away by train or car (on a good day), Summers ain't bad, used to be a fun village to ride bikes around with your high school friends, a few 24 hour places open these days
>Increase in cost of living (~$20 by train to get to Manhattan), no "downtown" area to hang out in, no main strip, increasing urbanization has led to apartments being built (tl, dr: niggers everywhere now), school system turning to shit, no money to fund public works, shopping districts now full of dangerous minorities (the walmart trampling happened here, lots of car thefts, etc)
>No but by god am I trying hard to. Hopefully San Diego by next June, just gotta graduate and get my savings in order.

>>766100
Forgot picture.
>Sellari 66 993

>>766100
I'm said LI bro.

Last time I was in Valley Stream, I got a flat tire turning around in the Sunrise Cinemas parking lot. That was New Years Eve, 2009. I am sure you are cool, but I FUCKING HATE VALLEY STREAM. Fuck it and its mall white people used to go to.

>>766160
It was nice in 2006. Not so much anymore. I graduated HS in '08 and that was probably the last good time. My mother, who has held on thinking it'll bounce back recently told me that she's considering moving when I do because it's getting pretty bad. Three fires over the past year at major restaurants, a murder or two and thousands of niggers have made it pretty bad.
>>766188
There's a reason why we call the Sunrise Multiplex the Murderplex. It's an awful, awful place and the mall has been going steadily downhill since that fucking Walmart was built. I tell people who ask I'm from Lynbrook now, since I'm right on the border.

Bergen, Norway

Pros:
>Beautiful city with amazing old architecture at some parts.
>surrounded by tall mountains, which are beautiful to watch and hike in
>Perfectly sized, not too big but not to small either.
>Good developed culture, loads of festivals held here, probably the most art centered city in Norway. The theaters always arrange things also (that's not just shit to get us spending money)
Like cultural movie exchanges and so on.

Cons:
>It goddamned rains all the fucking time. ALL THE FUCKING TIME. We set a record on it some while back.
>Getting infested with sandniggers like the whole of Norway.


-I left once for school to live in Oslo, but that was mostly because I wanted to get away from my parents and it was the only school open to take me in with a dorm. I'll probably leave again because my whole network is down there now.
But I love Bergen and would probably chose to stay there if I could choose between any other city in the world.

-wont give specific details but I live about 30 mins from the city, halfways up in one of the mountains

>>766266
Rain sucks. Here it rains about 1/3rd of the time and people get depressed from that little bit. I can't imagine what it's like in Bergen or Seattle.

>that feel when hometown is so shitty, small, and pathetic that there are no pictures of it

>>763646
Oh shit, forgot to tell you I went to UVic for 5 years. Now I'm back in shitty-ass Courtenay :(

>>766294
All the pictures of my village are just of individual houses or maps. Because there's nothing of individual significance there.

Anyone from a small town WISH they lived in a big city?

I know I do.

>>766347
What's big to you? The NY metro area is roughly 20 million people and I've got to say... it might be a bit too big.

>>766364

I'm from a place with less than 30,000 people. Sooo, probably 1-5 million people.

>>766318
Did you ever meet a Jenna Hatter or Jessie Singer while at UVIC?

OP,
I was born in X. I stayed in X for 3 months then moved to Y, and lived my childhood till I was 7 there. I've never been to X since.
Is my hometown X or Y?

>>766508
Y, clearly. If you don't remember it, it doesn't count.

Raleigh, North Carolina.

Pros:
>Excellent place to raise a family
>Crime tends to stay in one part of the city
>Weather isn't too bad
>A lot of people can be friendly, have southern hospitality, etc.

Cons:
>NOTHING TO FUCKING DO
>A car is absolutely essential, Raleigh is extremely spread out and we don't have a decent public transportation system because of it
>Drugs are scarce, weed's expensive when you do eventually find it.
>Hardly any jobs, especially entry level/minimum wage. They are completely taken over by illegal immigrants.
>Public schools are trash, except for the magnet schools.
>A lot of religious conservatives
>One of the only good music venues got torn down to become a Kerr Drug
>Every restaurant is a chain restaurant. Hardly any non-chain places except for downtown.
>So many of the chicks around here are either religious freaks, aren't comfortable with sex, or are fucking carbon copies of each other

I do plan on eventually leaving this shit hole. But not until I finish medical school in a few years.

Hoping to move to Seattle or some city on the west coast.

fellow new england fags

anyways North Shore Mass

mexico city, mexico

uhh in mexico? (south of the center of the country)

Pros: good food everywhere, lots to do, public transportation is bountiful though a bit crowded at times (six million people alone use the metro system every single day), again just soooo huge that there's always something to explore or see if you look for it

cons: risk of being kidnapped or mugged (or just phone-scammed), some parts of the city are honestly pretty grimy and dirty, the smog!! air quality varies, feels too crowded sometimes, drivers are pretty dangerous when you are on a bike (fuck you microbus drivers, fuck you!!)

yes i left for somewhere in the US for a while but now i'm back, not planning to stick around though

>>765668
I am so fucking jelly of your hometown, coming from a guy who grew up in bumfuck nowhere, Ohio.

It's funny how the Greeks think they're white after being raped by Turks for centuries.

Hobart, Tasmania
>pros
It's pretty
quiet
SO MANY BEACHES
Waterfront near the main city
Everything is close together
>cons
The people, some are just complete scum
Town closes at 6
Some areas are so fucking horrible and you can smell the welfare in the air

>>763213
>Lists as 99.9 % white as a pro
>Lists polish as a Con

And, once again, this is how shallow and prejudiced really are hurr no but therree slavs they no white like me. i superior yes

monterey, california
>pros
location (on the ocean, close to big sur and santa cruz), weather is foggy and rainy with a summertime season in fall which i love, pretty chill people (although not in nearby towns), droogs, fucking beautiful area
>cons
ghetto high school ships kids to go to school here, expensive as fuck, isolated, need a car to get anywhere, not much to do

i did leave, go to uc santa cruz across the bay now. family stills lives there, i love visiting.

Soyapango, El Salvador.

Welcome to a XIX century like industrial city!

Pros: my house is there.
Cons: High rate of crime, gangs (Imported from L.A.), people is shit, everywhere smells like shit, people look like indians, lots of traffic, trash all over the street, poverty, pollution, bus drivers killed every week, 10 kills per day, and other third world stuff.

Home, sweet home.

Another view from the clean streets.

These are the humble people that fills my town with happyness

>>763569

Fuck Adelaide, I hate it here. Moving to Melbourne as soon as I have enough money.

Its 11pm on a saturday? Everything is shut time to go home.

Oh, how hard is the life at out jails. Luckily our righteous judges put them free most of the time.

>fuckingmootbloxthinksmydamnpicisnotoriginal

Finally, these women are the base of our economy.

I hope you liked my city :)

Walchwil, Kanton Zug, Schweiz
>Pros
Nice town, beautiful views, modern houses, very nice area, high standard of living, easily connected by train, bus, boat, car to Zug.

>Cons
Not much to do really, no real shopping/entertainment, must go into Zug or Arth to get groceries/shop, very expensive housing/rents.

>Did you ever Leave
No, I love it here.

If we're actually talking about hometowns, then it would have to be Waianae, Hawaii. I don't live here now, of course.

A good thing about this place is the beach. My house was literally across the street from it, so playing outside was cool. The neighborhoods were... Eh. In my childhood, it was like playing in a free roaming world type game before they came up with it.

I once lived in Hollister, back when I was 7, but I moved back to this rock when I turned 10.

>>767313
holyshit, people are actually like that? Man they would get fucked up in my town, hopefully they never move to buttfuck Ontario were everyone has a crapload of rifles and shotguns and hates non-whites.

Yeovil.

Generic small English town in the south west. It's not got a huge amount going for it, but no major drawbacks either. The people are mostly shit but isn't that the case everywhere? It's home.

Everyone my age talks about how shit it is, how they can't wait to move away. I dunno if I will, but if I do it'll be to somewhere smaller, whereas most other people want to get out to a big city with more clubs, more to do etc. I'm old beyond my years, I'd be quite happy to settle down in one of the nice villages near by.

>>767373

every body is a fucking redneck, its in dumbfuckistan, pretty much everything else

>Did you ever leave?
Yes, I moved to NYC. Best decision of my life.

Where is it?
Santa Rosa, California (160,000 people)
Pros/cons of living there?
Pros: Very scenic, great for tourism if you're over 21, tightly-knit communities (in certain areas), has been the scene of many famous movies (Shadow of a Doubt), notable landmarks, white areas are pretty much crime free, local junior college has good connections, arguably has one of the nicest climates in the world
Cons: Boring as hell, not many jobs, entire southwestern side is non-white and crime-ridden, downtown is tiny and boring, traffic is bad for west-east highway, oldfags won't let anything new be built in the town, annoying spoiled kids, weird roads and two entire sections of city are connected by one small hilly road
Did you ever leave?
Not really, except for 1 year away somewhere else. I would like to leave though
If so, where?
N/A

St.Louis, MO

Pros:

>Did you ever leave?
I lived in Vegas for two years. Fuck that ghetto ass town.

>>767610

I know that feel bro. I used to live in Petaluma and Rohnert Park. Fuck Sonoma County.

Whitby, Ontario, Canada

It's your standard boring suburbian town, about a 45 minute drive from Toronto. It was a nice place to grow up, but I don't think I'd want to live there as a young adult. I moved away when I started university three years ago, but I'm in a co-op program so I move around a lot and my parents' house there is still my permanent mailing address. Since I moved out I've been living in Waterloo (for school) and Ottawa (for work).

>>763004

Calgary, FUCK YEAH!!

>>767894
Get the fuck as far away from the dirty shwa and whitby

Shits the gettho

I grew up in Elgin, IL.

Pic is a church I remember riding by regularly.

What a wretched hive of scum and villainy. They had seperate school buildings for k-6, then 7-8, then again for 9-12. My family moved out before my 9th grade year, and I couldn't be more thankful.

7-8 was the worst. I was bussed half way across town, in the interest of integration. I am white, and was in the minority at that school (mostly blacks and hispanics). I was in 7 fights in total my 7th and 8th grade years, 1 each for the 6 major gangs (hey esse, you can' walk down this stairwell), and one in shop class with a white trash asshole.

During my 8th grade year, I was too advanced in math, and they had me go to the High School half way across town in the other direction to take math (mostly HS Juniors in the class). I got to witness the first school stabbing in Elgin's history; 2 gang banging pieces of shit decided shouting shit at each other wasn't enough.

Fuck I'm glad to be gone from there.

Shrub Oak, NY

>pros
Clean, pretty quiet. Low crime. Not far from NYC, like an hour's drive or 20 mins to nearest train station

>cons
You need a car to go anywhere. Other than that, it's generic white, middle-class suburbia. It's boring and full of self-entitled assholes. Because it's technically in Westchester everyone assumes you're rich.

>have you ever left?
I attend school in Buffalo, NY, 7.5 hours away. Buffalo is a shitty, dying rust belt city. Been on short vacations elsewhere, longest was a 2 month stay in Beijing (study abroad)
I'm getting the fuck out of here once I graduate college and moving to New York.

pic related, it's the exit you would take to get to my house (thanks wikipedia)

Great thread, I'm halfway through reading it atm, posting in case it 404s while I write (happens everytime).

Hull, England. Other side of UK from Liverpool, about halfway between London and Edinburgh.

Pros:
>England, therefore relatively civilised
>A short ferry ride from Amsterdam (therefore lots of cheap drugs to be found in Hull)
>People are very down to earth and (mostly) friendly
>Decent nightlife (if you know where to find the "alternative" clubs)
>All my stuff is here
>Lots of history (English civil war started here)
>No religious people (Pagan corridor - Like the bible belt in reverse)
>Weather's pretty good, hot and sunny in summer, snowy in winter

Cons:
>Place is dirty, half the city looks like it's under construction, the other half is covered in dogshit. On the council estate I grew up on I'd frequently find used heroin syringes on the street
>We have more than our share of chavs and crazy people
>I think we came top of a European poll of obesity. I believe Hull has topped smoking, drinking, obesity and teenage pregnancy tables of the UK in the last five years. Sounds cooler than it is
>"Kingston Communications" has a telecommunications monopoly over the city, and they provide shitty internet
>Immigrants everywhere (most of them are cool though) and locals are really racist
>Built on a massive flood plain. A few years ago we flooded so much a guy died

I've been to Wales, France, Spain (a few times), Germany, US and various places in southern England. Always came back here though.

Pros:
>not too large, but large enough to provide plenty of entertainment
>over 50% of adults have a university degree, one of the highest for any city anywhere
>also azn-tier school system
>very marginal amount of nikkas to cause problems
>public transportation to anywhere
>women are easy
Cons:
>quite expensive, not too bad considering the PPP
>almost half of the year cold as fuck
>geographically not in the best spot if you consider travelling
>people like to keep to themselves unless drunk or if you're not strangers (might be a pro as well)

Where is it?
Gorham, ME
Pros/cons of living there?
>PROS
>College town, neat little suburb with some interesting places.
>Lots of farmland on outskirts
>Beautiful in the summer, nice and quiet in the winter
>Very nice people, great library w/ no late fees, everything in walking distance where I lived.
>Linked to Portland, Westbrook and South Portland, all within a 30 minute drive.
>No wangsters except in the high school.
CONS
>High school not as good as most others, and no, I'm not saying so in spite.
>No night life, really.
Did you ever leave?
> Yes, left for Manchester, NH for college. Disgusting city, would transfer but love my friends too much.

Pic related. The olde asbestos filled middle school, which was pretty cool if you like classic schools. Now a municipal center minus the asbestos.

>>767856
Did you leave Sonoma County? If so, where? Any recommendations on where to go?

>>767928
We moved to Wisconsin Dells, WI, on some vacation property my parents owned.

I couldn't have asked for anything better, and I'm dead serious about that.

Yes, we have the tourists to deal with, and they are assholes, but there's no shortage of work in the hospitality industry, and overall the town is peaceful, quiet and has almost zero crime.

I remember when I moved up here, the WEEKLY newspaper for the Dells would run the entirety of police reports for the week. It took up 3/4 of the page. And most of them were underage smoking, jaywalking, someone hit a deer, and drunk driving without injury (it's Wisconsin, *sigh*).

I've not left. I've lived in and around the Dells for the past 18 years (with a short 6-month stint in Madison, WI), and really do not want to leave.

Nigga please

Oulu, Finland

Pros:
-Small (the cozy kind)
-Has a university and good studying possibilities in general
-People are relatively nice
-Good art/music scene

Cons:
-Two hig-crimerate city districts (I've lived in both)
-Public transportation is ASS
-Hard to find good apartments
-Shitty job market

St. Louis Missouri
Pros:
Not too big not too small
The Loop is pretty chill
Has lots of sports and amusement parks
Only a few hours from Chicago or the Lake of the Ozarks
Some of the suburbs are ranked amongst the best places to live in the US
Cons:
If you go out at night in North/East St. Louis you will likely be raped/murdered by a nigger
Only a few miles from Hicks/jesus freaks
Super segregated between races
The Rams suck and Pujols is gone
I've left plenty, I've been to every state in the US except the Dakotas Alaska and Maine. I've been to Mexico, Canada, South Africa, and Mozambique. I'm moving to Ireland next summer.

Where is it?
Schenectady, NY. Part of New York's capitol region, along with Albany (the actual capitol) and Troy. The three are mostly there because it is where the Hudson and the Mohawk rivers meet

Pros/cons of living there?
Pros: -Real fucking pizza (pic related).
-Actually, you can get just about any food from any corner of the world there, and most of it is fucking delicious.
-Proctor's Theater; real art and culture, the owners show movies on it all the time, everything from classics to modern anime.
-Good schools, a few universities around, as a result a lot of intelligent people.
-Beautiful weather. Great parks within close proximity.
-Stockade district and lots of character and historical preservation all the way back to pre-Revolution.
Cons:
-Manufacturing and GE were the main source of jobs in the city and the whole reason why it prospered without turning into an urban wasteland like Albany and Troy after manufacturing jobs started becoming strictly overseas business. This did shut down the steel mill on the Mohawk near where I lived (recently demolished) In the '90s, GE kept laying off tons of people, some of them parents of friends. Divorce, drugs, suicide followed.
-Speaking of drugs, Schenectady is a major stop on the I-87/I-90 drug corridor. If you read Uticabro's post above there is something of a similar situation in that the Mafia is pretty much guaranteed to be behind ant successful political candidate, used car dealership, Italian community center, junkyard, etc. The police are complicit; there were details here but hurr field too long. Basically I grew up watching the law being broken and it being fine so long as everyone got paid.

Did you ever leave?
Yep.

If so, where?
All over.

Magnolia, Texas

Pro's
>Nice area, industrialized and very modern but at the same time has areas that provide you some privacy with ranch areas, while still being able to access town in 5-10 minutes of driving. Best of both worlds
>Good kind of mexicans, hard working and very humble. Everybody seems to get along rather well
>Good job opportunities due to bordering houston and the woodlands
>Very little roody poo's
>25-35 minutes from Sam Houston, 35-45 from A&M
>Nice community college

Con's
>Lack of small business at times since chain restaurants, strip malls, and walmarts dominate the area
>Numerous cliche middle-upper middle class gated neighborhoods who all look like they were made by the same contractor. NUMEROUS of these, will find at least 2 gated neighborhoods every half mile.

About all I can think of.

>>768264
Yea it's fucking cold everywhere in Finland. Get out of that place sometime and you'll see.

Jesus Christ, that's some high saturation. Brisbane is a nice enough place, though.

Hartford, Connecticut.
Pros- delicious ethnic food, no laws, excellent narcotics
Cons- Puerto Ricans, if thats a problem for you.
Spend the best years of my life here...about to leave on a new job. Gotta move on I suppose.

>>769249
Adelaidefag here, so jealous of you. Brisbane is amazing.

>>765470

lol Why the hate? I think Madison is nice.

Have you ever been in Downtown Milwaukee? Have you ever been on Lake Drive (Pic related)? It's beautiful. How about the entire South Side and the suburbs? The only bad part is the North Side.

... Damn, seeing these picture makes me want to move back, even more.

>>769276

Well of course it is when you compare it to Adelaide.

>>769276

Sup fellow Salvadorean, superior San Salvador City Salvy here.

Virginia, Cavan, Ireland
>Pros
peaceful, everyone knows you, no crime, quiet, pretty, cool scenery/wildlife, for the most part everyone is very friendly and strangers help strangers etc
>Cons
meeting up with people is hard because everyone lives so far away (countryside) so it's a huge hassle, not a lot to do, only 1 bus service to anywhere every 1 hour, everyone is a christfag, if you do anything the entire town will know
>Did you ever leave? If so, where?
Yeah, I live in Dublin now to go to college, about 10 minutes away from Dublin City centre. I feel a lot safer back in Cavan but there's just so much to do here, to be honest it feels like a whole different world.

Have any of you guys considered Postcrossing?
You get to see lots of pretty pictures from all over the world, and learn something about those places too, from real people who live there.

Finland.
Typical small town.
Left in 2007.

>Where is it?

Raleigh, North Carolina

>Pros/cons of living there?

Pros: Good weather, lots of jobs, NC State University, southern women.

Cons: There are limits to what you can do in the town if you ever want to "strike it big". You're going to have to move elsewhere to do that. Just not a big enough city for a young person.

>Did you ever leave?

Yes

>If so, where?

Currently I live in Wiesbaden, Germany

>>769631

Castelsardo, Italy

I currently study in Genoa

>>769651

Pros: Very quiet, everybody knows everybody, people are really nice, god weather, the streets are beautiful. Summer night are magical, with everybody on the street to have a drink.

Cons, small town, not much to do. Isolated town

Logan, Queensland, Australia
Pro's:
All roads lead to the motorway.
Con's:
You have to take the motorway to get anywhere.
Unless you like driving for hours to get to Brisbane city in the distance, the only thing to see is bushland and suburbs which go on forever.

I suppose it's a peaceful life but when you spend more time driving to and from the destination than actually being there you just stop trying to go anywhere.

Zagreb, Croatia

Pros: Some of the best looking women in the world, tons of clubs/discos/bars/night life, good climate, relatively clean city, over 1 million population, one of the best looking cities in eastern Europe (I know that ain't saying much)

Cons: Gypsies. No jobs. Erryone poor as fuck

>I rent an apartment in Chelmsford, (pic was related but it was too large), just because it's convenient for work sometimes (very short train journey into London) and for visiting my brother.

If so, where?

>>770000
aww you're upset because i wrote visit(ed)
Bro France is my country and we speak French here, if you don't like this idea then it's your problem, you will never be forced to come here.

>>769937
i don't know what 1burp is, sorry

>>770006
Kieren?

>>769981
>>770014
>French people
You must be trolling. Why you gotta be so rude? And smell bad?

>>770058
Assuming that that is a guess at my name, nope.

>>770000
I'm the other french guy, not the stupid parisian.
This is fucking true, I can't believe we are this retarded. Low level english isn't even that difficult to learn.

>>770014
Dude, it's that kind of speach that makes people hate us.

inb4 Paris sucks, don't go there if your interest is meeting nice people.

>>770123
Why should we care about it ?!
It's our country, it's not an Anglo-Saxon one, not an Italian one, it's France, home of the French, who speak French.
Stop being so americanized already, stand for your culture or it will be gone in 100 years.
I speak english, so of course i help tourist when they ask me for something.
> " makes people hate us."
Again who the fuck care ? We're still the most visited country in the whole world.
Stand for something brethren.

I wrote this in English because i want you guys to be able to understand what we're saying, because it's an English imageboard and it's /r9k/ and not /int/.

>>770179
What a fucking jackass. What if you wanted to visit japan, would you learn japanese first then?

>>770190
I would learn the basics words, yes.
Why are you insulting me ? Why so upset ?

>>770196
basic* my bad

>>770196
Cause your ideology is really quite dumb. If someone comes to live in France, yeah they should know the language but tourists.. come on son.

>>770203
> I'm not your son, bro.
Also opinions, i respect yours, respect mine.

>>770179
I'm not going to feed your troll, fellow.
Keep your way of thinking and I'll keep mine.

Posting this for the bump.

>>770215
I'm not even Trolling, it's just like, you know, my opinion man.

>>770220
Ok so let me get this straight :
A whole nation have to learn a foreign language in order to welcome tourists.
But wait, when you're visiting a country then it mean that you're showing interests for the said country, so it makes sense to learn the local language right ?
Where's the logic ?

Sydney, Australia

Pros:
>Good weather most year round (cool in the winter, hot and sunny in the summer, but not humid)
>Australia's biggest city, so we get a lot of international attention, celebrities, news, etc.
>Decent enough night-life
>largely cosmopolitan atmosphere, great place to grow up
>no massive social problems (little actual poverty, there are gangs etc. but if you're not involved you're not involved)

Cons:
>It's fucking HUGE. For a city of 4 million people I wouldn't be surprised if it had the same geographic area as New York.
>This means it's divided as fuck - you wouldn't recognise the eastern part of the city if you grew up in the west
>Western suburbs full of immigrant gangs, racists, conservative fucktards
>not so much "culture" here, and nothing truly remarkable about this place
>expensive weed (up to $20 g)

It's a good place to live in and I love it heaps, but unless you make your own life-changing experiences you won't come off with a "holy shit that was amazing" view of this city.

its beautiful. a shame im going to move soon.

Cambridge, England
>Pros:
Great history, lots of young people (obviously), very Pretty, decent choice of shops/restaurants
>Cons:
Students, tourists, can be boring

I left for college. Now I'm at Bennington in Vermont. It's nice. Bret Easton Ellis and Donna Tartt went to school here.

Kingston, ON, CA.

Pros:
>Fairly green city, trying to become more environmentally conscious.
>University/college city
>Economically, politically, geologically stable
>A couple of hours away from Toronto, Montreal, Ottawa and the US.
>Downtown area is quite beautiful

Cons
>Aging city
>7 or 8 prisons in the area (mentioned on Law and Order SVU though)
>Awful OHL team
>Major tourist city in the summer, especially the downtown area, gets kind of annoying

Allentown PA

Rustbelt city
Majority on welfare
No jobs at all
Shitloads of hispanics and blacks
Can get mugged/raped at night
Everyone is on drugs

Dunmanway, West Cork, Ireland
Pros: The young people are pretty fun, always good times to be had in town on holidays. Not too far away from all the fun places in West Cork, and an hour away from Cork city, which isn't too bad. And, uh... we just got an Aldi?
Cons: Apparently has a reputation for being rough, although I've lived here all my life and I only heard that the other day. There's hippies fucking everywhere, the school's a shithole, there's no proper shops and only one restaurant which barely counts as a restaurant. And yet we have 7 hairdressers. How the fuck does that work?

I've never lived anywhere else, although I'll be moving away in September for university. I've been to England, France, Wales, Spain, and Morocco.

Herp derp, dropped my pic.

>lives in Cambridge
>left for university

Oh dear.

>>770330
I live in Sydney, Australia as well!
I don't live in the city though, I live in the Eastern suburbs, around Maroubra and Bondi
It's not as busy there

>>770367
You live in CAMBRIDGE. What about going to the CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY. Did that cross your mind?. If not let me repeat.

WHY ARE YOU MOVING FOR A UNIVERSITY. You live in CAMBRIDGE. What about CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY.

>>770447

So much this.
Full baka.

Because it's one of the most competitive universities in the UK, maybe? It's not easy to get in. There's a very strange distinction in both Oxford and Cambridge between the students and the inhabitants, most people who live there don't go there for university because it's fucking difficult.

took this a few years ago,
>Chicago, IL
>pros:its a city, lots of stuff to do, beautiful, public trans
>cons:fucking hobos, crime,niggers, mexicans, not enough 24/7 places
>just moved here 2 years ago, never know if i might leave or not.

>>770330
Fuck. Meant to add:

>Moved to Brisbane for two years when I was 2, and then to China for two years when I was 13. Goood shit man.

>>770494
derp, forgot photo

>>770492
You should have studied harder then. Fuck, man.
You must realise how lucky you were to grow up there and have that opportunity?

Looking to visit for the week? You'll be bored in 2 days.

Looking to live or study here for a few years? Excellent.

Decatur, AL

Pro's
>Relatively safe
>Small metal scene and a few hipsters
>Semi interesting history, Civil War shit

Con's
>Fucking Churches everywhere
>Fast Food everywhere
>rednecks and right wingers
>Lesbians, WHY ALL THE LESBIANS?
>As a gay guy it gets kinda lonely

santiago, chile.
pro: it's cold and really beautiful, no niggers.
con: everything you have will get stolen, jesus fucking everywhere.
i left when i turned like 10 and moved to ausfailia

I wasn't the guy who posted the first thing about Cambridge, but I'll respond anyway.

There is no link between growing up in Cambridge and going to Cambridge University. I live in Edinburgh and I hope to go there next year, and my chances of doing so are not lessened by me living 300 miles away. Just living there doesn't give you an automatic ticket in, or even give you any sort of benefit whatsoever in the admissions process. It's not an "opportunity", just a coincidence.
