The happiest place to live in the whole wide world is the exact place that I live.

My papa was a preacher, so I've lived in several places; born in Punxsutawney, PA, early school years in Meadville PA, graduated high school in Shanksville PA, live now in almost rural Niles Ohio. Each place was the happiest place for me while I was there. It didn't depend on weather, wealthy surroundings, or any of the other features that surround mythical gardens-of-Eden. It only depended on my decision to be happy and contented wherever I happen to be 'planted.'

First of all, my happy place:Cincinnati. It's centrally located putting it within day trip distance of many tourist locations in the mid west. It's just a great place to live.

In response to Bill's SF comment, keep in mind the bands Journey and Starship wrote songs about their love for the "city by the bay". I visited Virginia Beach back in 2000. I was surprised and amused to learn that the use of curse words in public is illegal. There is a city ordinance on it (1st amendment be damned). It's meant to keep the city a family oriented place to live and visit. Good for them.
