So many cool places too go to (australia, scandanavia, canada, some parts of africa), are you really sure you want to move to the US?
IMO it's not a better way to live there then Europe or UK.
Once mentioned are definitaly better livable (maybe besides climate) in different ways.
Think Norway was announcement best country to live within Europe for 2nd time in a row.
Just my 2ct.
New York is awesome though, if you got cash too spent. But if I had those two, NY would mean my death.
