    I loved the video, not surprised at all. I figured St Louis would've been higher on the list. I was born and raised in that craphole, at 18 I joined the Marines to get away from that hell hole. It was the lesser of two evils, if I'm going to die I might as well do it fighting for my country instead of walking out the door to go to the grocery store. Here's a funny story. Last week my cousin called me from St Louis and ask me if he could come to Tampa and live with me until he get on his feet. Now mind you this is my cousin that just got out of jail after serving 23 years for murder. He said St Louis had gotten too violent, after laughing my ass off until my stomach hurt. I told him no, my wife wasn't going to go for it, I hung up.(saved by the wedding ring) Now when a covicted murderer says the city has gotten too violent something is seriously wrong.

      For sure, Tucson is as hot in the summer as most people can take, while San Antonio would be more temporate, but likely more-than-moderately humid. I've been to Tucson, stayed there in recent years. Me I'd pick San Antonio. Never been there, BUT HAVE been to Houston/Galveston, so I do know what humid is. Been to Arkansas many times in my life, over 4 decades (have famiy there). The Ozark plateau is gorgeous and really green, but the summer humidity is high. Also, the winters in Tucson can get quite cold, not extreme like Albuquerque (it's in the Rocky's), but still cold enough.

      Flints water is getting better and prepsndemic was ahead of schedule. My BIL was working on the pipe gang there. Flints problem was ignored by the governor but is now addressed. I've read a lot on lead poisoning, and am very encouraged by the fact that, with a few outliers, most of the kids in my mother's generation and before grew up in a similar lead exposure era. I remember when lead was in gasoline. My generation and following have enjoyed less and less lead exposure and the levels deemed toxic are lower as well. Not belittling it, I just really liked the health depth guy who was afraid they would write off this generation of flint kids as damaged goods. My parents grew up with tons of lead and were quite smart and successful. So there's lots to be hopeful about.

Rents have risen 300% since the tech exodus began a couple of years ago. I grew up in San Francisco and moved to Oakland 10 years ago. I've watched the streets of SF become littered with garbage and homeless tents. The influx of a city's wealth is directly proportional to its poverty. It's started to happen in Oakland. So, please move Oakland to #1 on your list!!
