Best country to live in?

<p>I always thought Austria sounded pretty chill</p>

<p>England’s fine, but personally I can’t wait to get out of here.
I want to live in America, Spain or Canada</p>

<p>Well try some university in canada</p>

<p>Australia, trust me. We’re all chill. I’ve lived both in the US and Australia for equal amounts of time… and Aus is waaayy better.</p>

<p>If you are relatively rich, any developing country like Brazil, China or India would be a wonderful place to live. There’s a thread of logic behind this, I leave you to research on it ;)</p>

<p>@runallday4- You think America has more problems because you live in America. If you followed the local news in any other country as closely as you follow American news and politics, you’d realize that all around the world we’ve all got very similar problems : ignorance, intolerance, and incompetence. That won’t change no matter where you are.</p>

<p>^ True, but the dominance of crazy (and popular) politicians is pretty scary to the rest of the world. And Americans are known for being ignorant :)</p>

<p>^^^ That’s a horrible thing to say because it basically translates to “Move to a country where the gap between the rich and the poor is huge so that you can reinforce your class privilege and continue to oppress others.”</p>

<p>@UKgirl23- And Brits are known for having bad teeth. It doesn’t mean it’s true all around.</p>

<p>USA all day. In reality we are probably the safest country to live in or at the top. Our education system is pretty decent. You can live in any type of environment you want work where you want and change the world if you want. True we dont get out much to other countries and know what they have to go through but were a great country because of other reasons. Maybe im just a brainwashed fool but hey i love my country.</p>

<p>Our education/safety are not top, or even top 10. What makes the US the best country in the world (this is coming from an immigrant) is the incredible amount of opportunity. This is one of the only countries where, if you’re willing to sacrifice and work hard, you can do anything you want to do.</p>

<p>US education in non-college years may not be the best, but the fact remains that we have the most top public and private colleges in the world.</p>

<p>Oh, higher education, yeah absolutely. No one can compete with us there, but I was talking about primary/secondary education, which is where we’re lacking.</p>

<p>Fact also remains that not everyone goes to college. The idea that anyone can do anything if they work hard enough (see also: the American Dream) is clearly misguided, though, and ignores not only people with disabilities but many other marginalized folks.</p>

<p>What about London any thoughts on there?</p>

<p>Where’s TheYankInLondon when we need him??</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Since when does everyone need to go to college?</p>

<p>^yeah agree with smorgasbord, there’s figures like bill gates that didn’t even finish college but makes billions of dollars, college is not exactly a necessity for everyone…</p>

<p>

<p>OK, first off, relatively rich will not do unless you have no problem with ****ty living accommodations. If you, in a developing country, want the same amenities that you find in the USA/developed world, you gotta be pretty rich.</p>

<p>Also, have you ever been to Brazil, China or India? Most of the cities have huge slums. I’m sorry, but it sucks waking up to see destitute poor people all around you. There are “nicer” cities in China, but they are *<strong><em>ing expensive and *</em></strong>ty in their own way.</p>

<p>Europe seems cool, especially France, but given domestic issues and EUR depreciation, I’ll pass.</p>

<p>I’d live in Tokyo if a Japanese woman married me and I had sufficient funds. Yes, Japanese society is not exactly kind to those who integrate, and I believe their culture is inherently unhealthy, but I could give a ****. Great service, great products, cultural hub, bars and nightlife everywhere, great fashion, great food. </p>

<p>Having said that, I love the USA. But I live in San Francisco. </p>

<p>Honestly, countries are an inappropriate measure for the question of “where you want to live”, as they’re far too broad. There’s enough of a difference between UES NYC and the Bronx, not having mentioned the difference between NYC and Cleveland.</p>
