The best State or region for Audiophile
Washington State got the honor of best state not just for audiophile but in general. https://www.usnews.com/news/best-states/rankings |
My community of 25 houses take more than 2 acres lot each. Thus I can play music loud even during midnight as long as I close the windows. I am happy about it. Unless I develop serious health issues, I will stay put at my current house in Northwest of Washington State. In addition, my house has a nice 180 degree view to Olympic mountains, Skagit Bay and Sound. Many people complain that the housing price around Seattle had gone up too steep. But if you go to suburb, then you can find nice houses under 1 M or even around half million. Thomas |
Somebody asked me worst region for audiophile It’s a fun thread. What is the worst State or region for Audiophile? ...Hurricane Alley? My take of worst region for audiophile is Southern California. Electricity and housing costs are expensive over there. Property tax and state income tax also make living there expensive. There is also high danger of earthquake which can ruin your audio system. It is also pretty hot during summertime not good for using Class A amplifiers. The weather is so good to do outdoor activities and do surfing on the beaches. Why you want to stay inside listening to music in Southern California. As an avid audiophile, it is the last place to move to. My son got master degree in Engineering from UCLA, I do not mind visiting there for few days from time to time but I will not take permanent residence there period. |
