Ah, nevermind. I picked New Mexico because it's the only state that has another language (Spanish) as an official language, as with Quebec being (French), but Louisiana could work also.

Maine/RI Territories = Alaska Manitoba/Sask = Midwest states that begin with 'I' Alberta = Texas BC = California Where's Quebec. I'd say Q... |

| I still am wondering if there is anymore info on Toronto though. Because that's where I plan to move sooner or later. I've never been there myself, but others I know say that it's kind of a cold city; people are more uptight than they are in the west. But I do think it's good for Aspies to live in ... |

| What exactly makes a place Aspie-friendly? -Liberal tolerant culture (which creates less breeding ground for bullying and more friends) -More disability services -Low crime rate overall -Middle income areas (rich folks hate us, and obviously the ghetto people hate us) -Probably an area with a high ... |

Tell that to the Aspies who grew up or live in the South. |

| Texas is quite diverse, but still conservative in that we are heavily influenced by three conservative cultures: the Old South, the Old West, and Mexico. You also forgot that Texas is the most religious state in the Union. I thought Utah was. Nah, Utah is 3rd, Texas is the most religious, then it's... |

However most of the cities I listed for "best cities" are either a) Canadian cities, and b) West Coast or Northern cities. Why is that? Except maybe Au... |
