Default Re: is living in the USA overrated

Using a real broad stroke one could group countries based on desirability into three or so groups. In the most desirable group you have the rich nations of the world, including the US, Canada most of Europe etc. Within this group I'd say it becomes pretty subjective and personal in terms of picking a favorite.

I grew up in Sweden, lived there for 17 years of my life. As I came to the US as an exchange student I immediately felt more at home in the US than I did in Sweden. I didn't dislike it back there, far from it, but things just felt right in the States. So now I live here in America. Talking to friends and family back home they can't understand how I could choose to live here rather than there.
