Florida would probably suit you... good weather and the odd hurricane to keep it interesting. Or Arizona... gets very hot but is not humid so you don't feel it too much. Nights are cold there though.

California might qualify too, except San Francisco which has a somewhat Irish-type climate.

Anywhere hot will have spiders, I reckon. The lawns you see are probably just dormant... The bottom half of States has lawns mostly of Bermuda or Zoysia grass, both of which go brown in the winter. Most Americans are proud of their lawns and go to great expense to maintain them to a high standard.

L.A. has perfect weather almost year round. I worked there for a year after finishing college.

When I lived in L.A. I had a great life. I picked a nice area which I felt was essential. Rent was expensive and I had to share a very small apartment with a friend to live in that nice area and didn't have much money for going out, but we had a great life buying cheap drink, going to "all you can eat" buffets and hanging out with cool people from all over the world, by the pool in our apartment complex mostly. The beaches and other natural resources on our doorstep were fantastic. If you had a higher income, I think it could be a fab place to live.

Thanks for the advice so far!

Just forgot to mention, that I'm looking for something civilized, so no s**t hole in the middle of nowhere.

I was considering San Diego before but that seems to be out now, when you've mentioned the mexican food

LA doesnt sound so bad. What about Georgia? The east coast certainly has some advantage, as I dont like flying and from east coast its closer to Europe, to visit family etc.

Actually I'm looking for something like Fairview in Desperate Housewives.There I said it. Now you get the picture.

Does anything like that exist or is it so sunny only on Tv?

I had a blast over there as well but ofr one of the most famous cities in the world it didnt live up to my expectations. Some local had the gual even to ask what part of the US is Ireland in, shher cheek and that was the ones that had heard of Ireland. Dont get me wrong I enjoyed my tome over there but wouldnt want to live there. Now Vegas was a cool place, although I must admit I didnt veture too far off the strip barring going to Hover Dam. If you like warm weather this is the place
