Greetings all.
I live in central Pa. Lot of nice down home folks here. Things to see and do are within two hours drive, 45min if you are brave or related to a judge. A bit "red" though, makes it hard to let my self go out in public.
                       Peace and goodness all       binee

I grew up near Saginaw, MI but live in Marysville, WA about 40 miles north of Seattle. The weather is usually mild year round and Seattle is very glbt friendly. Up here where I live, there is no glbt - we're just people.

Wow, a lot of you seem to be from Seattle, I heard it was very LGBT-orientated, almost like San Francisco also heard it's very expensive though, so is Seattle really all that? I was considering going there, since it's still close to home, but I don't really know yet. Any ideas/confirmations?

*nods*
I wouldn't call it LGBT oriented per se, but people are generally quite open-minded about that sort of thing. We have two huge pride celebrations now (the downtown one and the capital hill one), plus there's the gender odyssey conference that meets here annually.

Seattle can be expensive; it just depends on the area. There are a lot of surrounding suburbs and cities within 10-15 miles that I have found to be quite affordable even for me, the broke student.

I highly recommend seattle to everyone who is considering moving (I've convinced many a relative and several friends to move here though the years). I just love it here.

I hail from the McKenzie Valley in Oregon, but am willing to travel on a whim.

I visited Seattle once, and I'd love to go back. It rained, and I loved it. Anywhere with rain is good in my book. *makes another good mark for Seattle*

Yay! Susan's Seattle party!

I'm not transsexual per se (identify androgyne), but if anyone's interested in a PacNW get-together, I'm game.

Southern Cali here...SO is in NY

That'd be so awesome. 

Central New York...  About an hour west from the current snow-capitol of the universe, Oswego, NY.

Not really, I suppose..but I am posting in the TS part of the forum...

So where are the good suburbs of Seattle? Tacoma and stuff? I guess Marysville is good, but Karen, how can you go more north than Seattle? lol. That's practically Canada!! Maybe I'll think of it. I just don't like the idea of war-mongering Bush and all that other stuff. Plastic surgery is way cheaper here for FFS and I get SRS covered where I am now.

If you're on the west coast of Canada, Ice, you're already in one of the best areas to be trans in the world. If you're not, then Vancouver might be within reach for you, and you don't have to worry about immigration to the US, having to pay for medical care, or starting out in a new country.

I have lived all over, military and airline family, but now I live in sticksville, about 100 miles in either direction of a big city.

I'm from Chicago.  Born there, grew up in the suburbs, went to college in St. Louis, lived in Boston for 1 year, Israel for 12 years, Manhattan for 2 years, and northern California for 3 years.  And now I'm back in Chicago for the past 3.5 years.
