You're really stretching there with your last few examples.

Wyoming your biggest issue will just be a lack of any real culture or metropolitan amenities, plus the winters. But it is beautiful and the people are as friendly as anywhere else.

Colorado's problem tends to be hcol even outside the cities, and traffic to get to the mountains. But our government is shockingly functional, and our problems derive from tons of people moving here because it is a great place to live.

Cali's problem is definitely high prices and traffic. And kinda shocked you pegged CO as the place to find pretentious yuppies.

But honestly, I could be happy living in any of these places. Mississipi... would take some work.
