Tfw I will never live in 50-70s USA

>Russians who moved to America after WW2:

wealth, fame, success running tech companies by 2000

>Russians who stayed in Russia after WW2:

soviet union collapses in 1990

>Russians who moved to America after WW2
Examples ? I don’t know any

What? Is that a super dumb question?
I very interested in American films (1965-75 favorite period, after inventing video games and Soy Wars everything looks not interesting).
And I do not see more comfy place to live rather Southern California and San Francisco/San Jose area.
South is trashy. East coast full of troubles due civil rights.
But now... When I am thinking ... may be Boston is good.
Of course living in somewhere in Montana or New Hampshire is pretty based and redpilled, but what about cities.
What besides LA, Boston and SF (60-70)?

Boston is the best city, New England is the best region

>south is trashy
Yankee media has truly done a number on our image.
Oh well, tourists were always shit

Most of the country was doing pretty well for itself, but it wasn't exactly sustainable.
>Pictures of USA cities from the begging of 20 century looks better than Russian cities like Moscow or Spb today
I've always wanted to go to those places. Would I just be disappointed?

>What? Is that a super dumb question?
Yes it is, don't seek an actual education about a country based off of media, ESPECIALLY Hollywood
California was ripe with violence and tension during the Civil Rights Era btw, no major population center was safe from protests and violent clashes

Sikorsky Aircraft and Ampex tapes are the two largest.

Aachen vs Trier vs Saarbrücken?

South has its own thing, It's difficult to imagine be there (for me). Louisiana is very interesting, besides that it's just trailer-parks, blacks and southerns aristocracy.

I understand that if someone dreams of living in NYC, he doesn't mean Bronx or Queens, nether Harlem. When I mention LA, SF I mean best parts of it or its good suburban areas.

>And I do not see more comfy place to live rather California
>What besides LA, Boston and SF (60-70)?

50s-70s LA was shit; besides the awful smog the entire transit network was dismantled. It's why Reagan lived in Ventura and Nixon in OC. Also loads of racial violence between blacks and mexicans which was real at the time, as mexicans hadn't won yet.

50s-70s SF was shit too; besides the general hippy scum shitting everywhere, the Moscone assassinations, and the rise of AIDS. Nearby Oakland was the center of America's black muslim movement, which made money by kidnapping white people and demanding ransoms. Also Ted Cruz kept killing people near Martinez.

then came the addiction to credit

>When I mention LA, SF I mean best parts of it or its good suburban areas
Even those places weren't all that good
50's-70's America was picturesque with the cozy parts being small towns dotted all throughout the US, not big cities or the boonies

>and the rise of AIDS
Wasn't a problem unless you were a member of a certain subculture.

I wanted pics and got chimping instead

May be my good impression of those place based on relatively white population back then.

Anyway, What was the best city or place to live but still big (population)?

OP is the type of person who would have shown up to America as part of a Soviet-American friendship program in the late 70s only to somehow get him stuck in a place like Geneva Towers where he'd be raped by drug users and have all his pretty Soviet uniforms taken and burned for fuel.

mid tweneith century American cities were shit, all of them with no exceptions. Urban decay was real and it wasn't a thing people wanted to deal with.

Aachen or Trier. Aachen is bigger though, and has better connections to the rest of the country

It was a problem if you wanted to use any of the local hospitals or water fountains. It's how Issac Asimov got infected, and is why CA hospitals didn't let openly gay patients in until they figured out what AIDS was.

San Jose but only because nobody knew where San Jose was before 1995.

When Khrushchev visited the US in 1959, he met with some labor leaders in NYC and one of them said "You know, many Russians of your age came to New York in the early years of the century." He replied "Bah, they only came for higher wages." The labor leader said "Well then, it's a pity you didn't move here back then. Perhaps you could be a big union organizer now."

Someone also mentioned about America being the land of opportunity and he said "What is your point? I was a peasant boy and now I am the premier of the Soviet Union."

Thing is, in those days the suburbs were nice and the cities were shit because all the jobs and money went out of the former. The suburbs have become increasingly degenerated in the last 25 or so years and cities gentrified into having a million shitty boutiques and hipster cafes.

>Also Ted Cruz kept killing people near Martinez
And to think, some people wanted that guy to be president.

>railroad sells downtown train station because voters are promised a new one will be built in a better location by 1990
>new transbay terminal doesn't start construction until 2009, but city goes cheap so defects means a train tunnel won't be built into it until the 2030s at the earliest

Solzhenitsyn lived in Vermont during his exile.

literally: you gonna get raped the station

it was also not nice that the state built a three level rape park right in front of the city's main ferry terminal, right on the waterfront

though it's better than Sacramento whose waterfront became Interstate 5. Tucked under the junction near the iron railroad bridge is the train station.

Yes and thank the KGB for funding the ANTIFAs of those days.

It's extremely distressing that the Bay Area's former central railroad station was destitute during that era and abandoned after the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake dropped the Cypress Viaduct onto the train tracks, cutting it off from the south.

also LP is why my house's "garage" leans over by two inches, because it's actually a converted carport that didn't take the shaking

On the topic of unlicensed building modifications, most of the apartments in SF have illegally converted garages built under them to comply with the city's minimum parking requirements. This is what happens during an earthquake.

Was The Wonder Years an accurate representation of that era?

Before the Civil War most Whites in USA were Anglos, Germans. Then some Irish came in. Next Jews, Italians.
Who was average White by he's background in 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s?

No

Nope
Irish came in Antebellum, the Famines were mostly in the 1840's, the Civil War was the first half of the 1860's
Germans, Jews, Italians, Poles, Russians, etc. all swarmed in afterwards like rats
Average white by the latter half of the 20th century was a mutt

>wanting to live in the era when suburbia spread like an infection, cars were 10 mpg shitbarges with no emissions equipment, trains fell out of favor, and lanes of destruction were cut through the middle of cities to build interstate highways
It may have seemed all fine and dandy then, but as it turns out what a mistake that time was.

catholics were allowed into public hospitals and schools after ww1, niggers and spics were after ww2

people only realized things went wrong in 2008 when they ran out of houses to sell and lanes to add, but even then nobody really wants to change anything because change is scary

I wonder when public transit fags are ever going to realize that most people don't want to sit on a bus with niggers and homeless people.

that looks comfy af
