That depends entirely on what you're looking for. There is no place where everything is perfect, but if you figure out what you value most in the place you'd like to live, it's easier to narrow it down.

Best standards of living are in Scandinavia still. If you are really wealthy New York.

Yeah ok gun but. There's a lot more to a good lifestyle than shooability. You in particular can stay down in your hole

I am a white guy

specific parts of virginia and new jersey are good. I hear new england is nice, though many of those ppl find themselves better than everyone else. I hear positive things about the west coast as well.

>should I look in europe
take a trip to wherever you are considering moving to, US or otherwise. I think europe is cool because each country has a much different culture. you could also take trips to South America, since some places in SA are very nice.

oh and some nordic countries are really cool. I’d like to live wherever they regularly have those massive airsoft battles.

>specific parts of new jersey are good
How can anyone say that with a clear conscience

there’s some places in new jersey that won’t allow ugly franchises that sell diharrea food or overdevelopment of scenic areas such as parks and farms. there’s often a train to Philadelphia, New York, or even DC and Baltimore. historical buildings are also a big thing in many areas. then there’s the shore if you want to relax or possibly party that way.

but we can just talk in memes if u prefer.

oh and people say it’s too built up, but there are actually farms and lakes almost everywhere. some of the suburbs are utopian, even, if you don’t think that kind of thing is scary.

Switzerland has the highest happiness rating in the world however that may mean it could be more expensive to live in

Depends on who you are and what you like, one man's haven is another's hell.

Keep in mind also that no country is 100% perfect.

I'm Canadian and wouldn't mind moving to Japan. I love how clean and organized the country and culture is, how their cities are all based on biking and public transortation, in a sense people are extremely individualistic and keep to themselves with their own hobbies but there is also a sense of collective community, etc.

Of course the work culture there sucks, rent in the cities is crazy stupid expensive, as a foreigner I'd sometimes get snippy comments and looks from older people and feel like an outsider but I already feel like an outsider in my own country so that wouldn't be so different.

US is not the best obviously. But to be honest places that are "better" are quickly becoming worse... generally because all the people who want to live somewhere 'better' are moving there.

>specific parts of new jersey are good
Yeah like across the border imao

retards. most places in the US are meaningless people-farms. where I live is better than whatever mcdonalds hole most channers crawl out of

Why do you think you can just go wherever you want? It's not so easy to get a residence and work permit for Europe.

Honestly man, stay in the US. Even if there's a chance of you having a better life in the UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, or even someplace outside the anglosphere, odds are it'll only be marginally better, and probably only in a few ways that'll be offset by the difficulty of acclimating to a new society and new laws.

Unless you've got a raging boner for guns, the rest of the anglosphere is pretty much the same as the US, and actually much better in most ways.

If you have cash then move to CAMBODIA!!! Best spot ever. Go Phnom Penh, avoid Sihanookville.

Actually, the legal structure of most other English-speaking nations is quite different, and in many ways troubling to me.
New Zealand only has a national government; there are no states, and consequently no federalism.
Canadian federalism is almost backward; any powers not delegated to the provinces by their constitution are expressly reserved to the federal government. That said, I do like how rigorous their grant of power over education to the provinces is. The way their courts work with federalism is kind of stupid.
Australia seems to have fairly normal federalism, but their nanny state shit is really a hindrance. Land ownership is a big problem there too. All the boomers bought land and aren't selling for some stupid reason.
The UK's "constitution", to the extent there is one, is a purely political document with no legal force. Consequently, it's possible for their legislature to do things that would be outrageous in the US, such as general search warrants.

There are a lot of differences that you just can't anticipate prior to living there. The differences in the functioning of law and government are just the tip of the iceberg (and an iceberg in their own right).

why would you worry about any of that unless you're wanting to become a lawyer or politician lol

I really like living in Denmark.
We have a good safety net, it is really hard to fuck up.
I moved out when I was 18 and have been living on my own ever since.
When I was 21, I quit my job, took a new education in a completely different field.
Never took a loan or asked my parents for money. Didn't acquire any debt even though I studied for 6 years.
Didn't even apply for jobs, they just gave me one right after I graduated.
Within 3 months of graduating in the new field, I bought my own apartment.
Have never been worried about my health, we get good free service. My grandfather was terminally ill with cancer which had infected his spine. They did spinal surgery so he could walk the last month of his life.
We have a tightly knit community, we always eat together, keep in contact, do things with people in our lives.
Oh and we are not cucked like Sweden.
I know it is old and we might not have been able to do it today, but the cartoon thing was from Denmark. When a bunch of muslims threatened to riot and murder ambassadors if we didn't retract and apologize, we flipped them off and said free speech bitches.
While not as epic, this year we banned burkas and reinforced our border against Sweden.

But this shit matters for everyday life. There are a lot of weird little things you take for granted in how your government functions.

My point is there are a lot of nuanced ways in which life is different in these places that you can't anticipate and might not realize until you've been there for a long time. Admittedly, a lot of them may never affect you. Those that do affect you may have economic or non-economic costs.

My point is, if you're going to take the step of moving to another country, you need to know that the economic benefits (i.e., the jobs you can get) are not merely marginally greater than the predictable economic and non-economic costs. You need a significant amount of padding for unanticipated negative differences that may come up after five or ten years (i.e., after you're married and have children and just packing up and moving home isn't so simple).

because something that is not considered a legal worry where you lived for the first 18 years is suddenly a huge concern anywhere else you go. imagine waking up one morning and not learning that all the laws have changed by about 90 degrees, and you neve rknow what minor thing you're going to do to set it off, and what outrageous reaction you might get.

>But this shit matters for everyday life

no not really lol what matters in my everyday life is what goes on in my city, I barely give a shit about what goes on the rest of the province and fuck if I couldn't care less about the federal government either.

>because something that is not considered a legal worry where you lived for the first 18 years is suddenly a huge concern anywhere else you go

nah not really like I said the major difference is guns. Other than that there are no laws that have changed about 90 degrees. In a lot ways too the law changes 90 degrees in a good way like you can drink at 18 instead of 21, and marijuana is/will be legal nationwide.

>lol guns alcohol and drugs are the only things that matter to anybody normal
spoken like a true underage

lol why are you mad

yeah there's different ways in how states in the anglosphere operate in the sense of how they pass laws and elect their officials, but it's not like in Canada it's illegal to wear shoes indoors and whatever else you seem to think is a "90 degrees" turn in the law or culture

>but it's not like in Canada it's illegal to wear shoes indoors and whatever else
As I said, spoken like a true underage.
