California. There's a reason the cost of living is so high.

Honestly, what state you live in doesn't matter nearly so much as what local within any given state. I quite like the Seattle area, but the rest of Washington I see little reason to live in. What time I've spent in New Orleans was also quite enjoyable (although I don't know that I'd want to live there) the rest of Louisiana is a cesspool. Tallahassee is a nice little city aside from the minor detail that there's little to do beside hit up dive bar.

Where are your family and friends? Pick that state. Studies show that a strong community is worth more than money.

Don't have family and friends? Move to New York. Highest percentage of single girls.
