Hi. I finish school in a year, and I am trying to figure out where I want to live after I pass the Bar, or where I want to take the Bar. My profession is such that finding a job, or striking out on my own will not be overly difficult, so that is not a consideration. I was thinking either beach or mountains, but beyond that I have no clue. Any helpful suggestions, and why you suggest them would be very helpful. Thanks

Take a good look at Asheville, NC. In the mountains and a few hours from the beaches. This a a school community and a retirement community with every Age in between. Not to sure about the Bar Exam, but there are lots of local Breweries and Bars.

For me, Portland, Oregon. Not just cause I was born there, but also soo much to do, and I like the V.A. hospital.

Sounds fair. Most of us do tend to stay where we grew up. I grew up in Milwaukee, WI, but found home in NC to be much better - no where near as much snow and we have polite snow; it melts and goes away in a reasonable time, polite!

SoCal has the beach and the mountains within a couple hours of eah other and unlike MAJ Robert (Bob) Petrarca suggestion of NE you can actually ski and surf on the same day in SoCal.

I'll give you credit for that one SSG Guina, In my neck of the woods you can only ski and polar bear plunge in the same day :-)

Tampa Bay is a great option to consider. We have lots of beaches and salt water activities including some great inshore and offshore fishing. We have several reasonbly priced private country club communities offering excellent golf and business events. And we have 3 professional sports teams with the Bucs, Rays and Lightning. Tampa Bay is a growing area with lots to do. I spend a couple weeks a year in Maggie Valley, N.C. ..... because the mountains are cool too.
