Where in the USA is the best place to live for me?
I own & operate a flooring business in Minnesota. I know that starting over with my business will take time in another area, however, I don’t believe this is an area I want to live forever. Also, in the past year there has been a huge surge of people in the same business slashing prices. I realize the economy is not great right now, but I feel that there are areas out there where I can do very well. I like a medium to large size communities. Areas I have considered are Austin TX, Madison, Wi, Colorado Springs, Norfolk Va, Des Moines, IA, & Milwaukee Wi. I am open to other areas as well, I am looking for some answers from people who are maybe in real estate, construction, contracting or similar fields that have lived in some different parts of the country. Any help and advice will be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Dont go to Miami or south Florida for that matter. You’ll be the minority in your own country its a very frustrating feeling…

I would suggest somewhere in the southern part of the country. States such as MI and OH are struggling due to a failing auto industry (buy American!).
Nevada, Texas and Colorado have steady employment rates where persons are not leaving the state left and right in search of jobs.
I’m not is the business, but metro Denver ( front range )is still growing. I live in Castle Rock, halfway between Colorado Springs and Denver. http://www.townofcastlerock.org
I think you can get a flooring business going in this area.
You’ll love the weather here.
