Where are gay friendly cities/states?
| Sun, 08-15-2004 - 8:52pm |
My partner and I are on a hunt for the gay friendly cities in the US out there? Do you know where they are? If so, please share this information with us!
Where do you live and do you consider it gay friendly?
What gay friendly cities do you know of?
We are not the type of family who would fit in in New York City or LA. We have modest jobs and prefer smaller cities, if possible. So, if you have any input at all, please share with us!
Thanks!

I love Madison, WI also... and San Francisco is a great place. Never have seen problems here either, and people are fine with lgbt people, but...
Only 3 hours from Chicago?

My partner and I live on Cape Cod (Dennis) and honestly, we're looking at moving to Vermont or back to the Happy Valley. I guess it's gay friendly here, but finding friends hasn't been really all that easy. We'll see if there's some hidden community as we're probably going to end up pretty high profile in four months or so.
Ptown I think would be a no for most of us. You might find a 1 bedroom condo in ptown for $400k if you're really lucky, but there are almost no jobs that could support that kind of mortgage. It's a great great place to visit, but it's not really a realistic place to live unless you're extremely wealthy. But really everyone should go visit ptown now! It really is a wonderful fun time.
Of course I would not mind Cat. Are you planning on moving?
Fill me in.

>I think the best places to live are liberal college small towns.
I think that for the most part that's a pretty good idea Kathy.
