Top 100 places to live


Money Magazine, who once took financial advice from famed economist Billy Joel, has ranked the Top 100 places to live. I've noticed that out of the Top 25 finalists, only 2 are in the South. Many of them are in bastions of freedom like Californiastan and the Peoples Republic of New Jersey, however most of them are suburbs as opposed to the urbs. Number one on the list is Moorestown, NJ (near Philadelphia).

Moorestown as oppossed to Morristown (near NY York) which is usually featured in this list (in fact, Chatham is a stone's throw from Morristown).

Jersey, my ass.

Actually, four are in the south--Maryland is below the Mason-Dixon line and its long-time residents (as opposed to the upstart newbies constantly moving in) are quite proud of their Southern Heritage.

My sweetie, The Major, is a Baltimore boy, born and raised, and his forebears fought in the Civil War; like many families, his fought on both sides.

Ellicot City is lovely, but Gaithersburg? (shudder)

I spewed my coffee when I read that article. Moorestown wasn't all that far from my old place in Jersey, and was absolutely nothing to write home about at all.

It was simply another segment of suburban sprawl only marginally distinctive from the segments up and down the road a ways.

Having lived in a few nice places in my life, and having visited many more, I gotta say, "Moorestown ain't it"
