i've been to phx, flagstaff and random towns along 66. it just feels like a hotter, less topological variations, more hispanic utah. i love the land of utah but not the people/culture so much.

i loved santa fe a lot. in comparison abq isn't nearly as nice but i don't think anywhere in arizona beats abq.

Albuquerque is more run down, has more crime, has a worse economy, has those fucking Kokopelli things everywhere, and is just generally worse. The nice areas of Phoenix and its suburbs are much nicer than anything Albuquerque has. I'm sure Albuquerque is cheaper, though.

it's not as kokopelli as santa fe. sf doesn't have any buildings over 3 stories and everything has that reddish adobe roofs.

abq isn't sf but it's certainly better than say las cruces.

you like old town or has it gone to shit in the last decade?

if you're not in a place off the strip it just feels like hours of sprawling suburbs. it's a place to visit but living there and raising a family would be garbage.

and if i'm going to live in vegas, i might as well just go a little more west to la.

this is an area of interest of mine...when will we be revived? Most cryos think it might be 100 years or maybe 200...i think THOUSANDS of years will pass...how to pay for it? As time goes on, things get cheaper, in general...right now the financial vampires have arranged things to make assets become more expensive...but other things continue to get cheaper...i predict robot labor and less regulation will make cryonics storage much cheaper in the future...and once the financial vampires are defeated, along with other tech advances, real estate will get cheaper...i don't think storage costs will be a limiting factor

so your wife will eat crackers with cheez whiz and live as a pauper so in a million years the cockroaches can revive you to be their sex slave. i'm sure she won't scam a way to dip on payments. even if she gets sued once you're thawed premature that's it.
