Adult Woman here. In question about where to live next. See Below>>>>?

[arber47]

I live in WI. Originally from NJ. I really... don't like NJ or the people much. I never actually felt a part of that state growing up into adulthood. The state is too congested. A melting pot. A lot of industry and pollution. I moved here to WI. the end of 04. My dad was out here for awhile and my cousins are, but never ask to see me. Even when I have hinted. I give up on them. I live in one of the least crime states. The state itself is beautiful. People are as rude as NJ, sometimes worse. Not friendly at all. I like friendliness. I had a bad car accident a while in 05 .. was lying on the road in the middle screaming my head off.. and not one person stopped or came to my rescue. Finally.. a woman who worked in the administration office of the hospital came home from work, and called the ambulance. I was in the middle of a busy cross road for a while before hand. No one even says hello ever.. good morning, holds doors open, says any mannerly things to one another. They push you aside, cross in front of you, tail gate you in the grocery store, and have no road courtesy at all. A no manner state. I was raised to have manners and respect. That being said.. I use to be involved for a long time with someone here .. however he married a person. The wrong person, but never the less.. he is married. I have no one here.. except my mom, who has cancer and lives with me. I am un married no kids. My one brother who is not easy to get along with and has some anger issues.. lives in NJ still. I have a good friend who lives there. But.. for me it is not my kind of state or people. It is also very.... expensive. I am in the process of starting up a small cleaning company that I may be able to sell for profit later. I don't want to stay in this state just for safety reason only. The health care system is the worse here.. and I do know there are some classes and loose ends to tie up here and with my mom before leaving one day. My younger brother and his family moved a long time ago to Texas because my sister in laws two brothers live there. He likes that dry constant heat and is use to it. I was there twice and hated it. It is busy like NJ, and too hot. I do miss the beaches and board walks the most. I also like the mountains.. but a woman a lone that can be scary and weather wise driving those winding roads. I have to look ahead with all that. I was considering North Carolina.. but hear it is getting very congested with everyone wanting to move there and doing so. But.. heard it is much inexpensive to live then Washington or Oregon. My brother use to live in Seattle and said it was very expensive to live there and there is a lot of crime out that way because of the rural areas. I did not want to have to resort to moving by my brother to a state I hate and is not me. Yet.. I need to be around friendly people The East Coast, West and Mid West has the least friendliness. I have been and lived there. I heard NC is very friendly and a lot to do. I am nearly sold on the NC state. We get a lot of snow here.. I wanted a lot less. FL is out. CA is great.. but super expensive. What would you do? Thanks

If Texas was too hot for you, keep in mind that NC experiences nearly the same temperatures during the summer. I was there last summer and it was 101 degrees with 70% humidity. Yikes! People without AC were literally dying.
Anyways, I don't know why you're so determined to find a place with friendly people. Every single place in the world has its good and people. Also, you generally get what you give. If you're giving off a bad attitude, people are going to reciprocate similarly. I have been to Wisconsin and found the people extremely nice and genuinely friendly, unlike the south which can be sort of a false sense of friendliness. Maybe the problem is not your environment, but rather it is you. I find it strange that no one helped you when your car broke down. That was terrible luck on your part.

Anyways, aside from the heat, I would recommend NC or VA to live. Just be wary of the heat and growing congestion. They are also very business friendly. Colorado is nice as well. You need to list more of what you want in a place so that we can give more accurate answers. The best way to get a feel for a place is to visit, so I would visit NC before you move there! Good luck :)
