  • [[ratio of eligible women to men, by age range]]
  • quantity of public lands reachable within 1 hour
  • presence of cultural institutions
    • university (preferably public, research, reasonable tuition, open to nontrads)
    • community bio lab
    • hackerspace
    • improv
    • bookstores
  • community gardens or farms reachable within 1 hour
  • available water
  • low gini coefficient, and high standard of living (people are more equal, but not because they're all destitute) (?)
  • decent public transport if possible
  • attainable [[median home price by city]]
  • [[city climate data]] between 20 deg F in winter an 80 deg with dew point less than 60
  • evergreens in town, lots of trees
