Most Aspie Friendly City?

Post Reply New Topic

I prefer large cities like los angeles even though i'm outside of la I find that being in the city you have more health choices and more oppertunities to meet other aspies or go to college and it'd easier to get lost. But once someone sees you they can tell you're diffrent, at least they can't tell the whole city about you . I find it easy to be more NT-like with slip ups here and there. It's better to be around educated people especially those in the medical field.

I would put Ann Arbor, MI high up on the list.

How about Vancouver, BC?

I'll be sure to avoid Denver, plus I love the beach and its too cold.

I've lived in Youngstown all my life, pretty much, and while we have the resources, you need to know how to drive, which is a big issue with me. also girls tend to be real snobby and are easily creeped out especially in the preppier parts of town. in the city, its all ghetto and unless you dig rap music (I'm a fan of some pretty extreme stuff. industrial, grind, punk, death metal) its the pits.

I really don't believe there's a such place as an aspie friendly city. I've lived in many places, and nowhere have I been able to blend in.

Chicago Ill. Maybe I'm biased because I lived there for the first ten years of my life, but there's so much diversity of population in chicago that people don't pay attention to quirky little things that Aspies tend to do. They just roll with the punches and are generally friendly.

My guess would be Tokyo

Edinburgh - not only because it's relatively liberal, diverse and intellectual (having such a concentration of students), but crucially because of the facilities for people with autism spectrum conditions there.

From my perspective, finding a job is much easier if you live in or near a big city. Towns can not offer that diversity of job opportunities. I'd choose to live in the suburbs, where there's more green and space. Added bonus would be a nearby mountain where you can hike or bike. Finding friends like you would be easier too, you can use the internet to locate them, or look for people who share your special interests. And if you had enough of all of this, you can always spend your holiday on a place where you'd really like to be...

San Antonio Texas. Texas people are unsualy friendly and nice to begin with.

Ugh, why do people bother ressurecting old posts from the dead? It's been four years, just make a new one!

Anyway, I saw my old response about New Palestine, Indiana and I still agree with it lol That town sucked so bad. On the topic, I'd say anywhere in Indiana probably isn't an overly friendly place. The South in my experience has been so much nicer and everyone's been much friendlier. So I guess anywhere from Kentucky through Texas is good in my book
