i want to go to spokane

I emphatically agree. Just saying that sadly, it is probably a marginal step-up from Spokane.

You would probably like Austin alot. You'd have both the southern and music culture there with excellent affordability just outside Austin and maybe even within it. Half of the original YTMNSFW members are in Texas with Austin centering around it. Austin definitely seems to be the ideal place for you.

i do love Texas...
