AirwickWithCheese Posted May 9, 2018 Author Share #53 Posted May 9, 2018 @Road Runner, please calculate Virginia for me? It's not easy with the whole lunacy of DC district, etc. I think Richmond holds up but not easy to show. How's this? Roanoke/Tidewater/Afton + Alexandria = Richmond. Close? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may be logistically better suited to be in Toronto for business reasons -- but which city do you prefer? Why? Well, how can I say this and still be PC and not called a racist... IT'S THE CHINESE! Vancouver is beautiful but I would never go back. The massive influx of Asians totally destroyed what Vancouver was, thanks Expo 86. Now it is a mini Hong Kong. That isn't one sign, that is the whole city. If Vancouver was the same smaller, laid back west coast town it was, sure. But you can never go home.

I get that. It's one of the reasons I'm considering getting out of Seattle. Not mention the economies and cost of living in both cities is insane.
