I went to high school in a small suburban town and went to college in a middle of nowhere. I'm DYING to move to a big city when I graduate this semester. NYC could be nice but I don't think I'll get the right job to be able to live there comfortably right now. How's DC?
Should I look into the west coast like L.A?

Out of curiosity, what variety of Asian are you and where are you from?

What do you do? That will put an emphasis on some cities.

I personally wouldn't want to live in DC, but some like it. Atlanta (I'm biased, since I moved here for this reason) is growing like crazy and has been for quite some time, so there are a lot of opportunities in almost every industry.

Let us know what you do and we can help a little more...

WTF? I'm Asian and I don't think it matters. San Francisco is as diverse as you can get though.

The worst kind of racist is one that doesn't know he is one.

Are you that scared of white people? Why are you scared of white people?

He says he lives in the south. I'd be scared too.

There's a substantial Hmong population in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area. Dunno about prevalent the Chinese, Korean, Japanese, Thai, etc.. populations are though.

People of different races clearly have different cultural behaviors. Some people want to embrace their culture and be around other people who share the same behavior.

It depends on where he lives. My understanding is that North Florida = The South and South Florida = not The South.

I agree. I want to embrace and celebrate my white culture.

Move to the South.
