general What Region of the U.S., Canada, or the World Do You Live In? (Poll)

[Flutterbattyyy 330]

What region of the world do you live in? Just curious as to where most members of MLP Forums lives. 

 

Choose N/A if the question doesn't apply to you. Some questions have more than one possible answer, so answer the ones that you feel works for you. I know that the U.S. and Canada have many different ways to divide them into regions, so I gave the option to select more than one choice if you wish.

 

The poll is broken down into the U.S. states and regions, Canadian states and regions, European regions, and world continents.

 

Choose more than one if you are away for college or temporarily living somewhere else. If you want to, that is. 

 

I would have loved to put every country and place on the poll, but that would take waaay too long. I hope I was thorough enough. XD

I've always lived in Oregon, but I'm currently in Oklahoma for college. My favorite state is Washington, hooves down.

I live in the midwest, or I guess eastern midwest. Indiana to be specific. That is of course in North America. Indiana can be a pretty cool place, when its politics aren't being a complete clusterbuck. 

[ARagY 1,152]

Can we get other countries too (you did list all the states of the US? Living in Czech Republic - feasible. Living in Hungary? Hell to the no. I feel some more distinction would be necessary as those places are VASTLY different.

Just look at that sad, sad region. No Interstates, nothing...

[Envy 5,992]

I live in Oklahoma. I've never known which region it's supposed to be a part of, and a Google search of the US regions only made me more confused, because pretty much every single region map said different. >.> So... I voted "N/A".

 

Really wanting to move somewhere where the weather is nicer, like in the North/Northeast. I have had it with Oklahoma. I can't take it anymore.

It's easier just to say "New Jersey, in the United States."

[Steel Accord 6,658]

Born in Philly and raised back and forth between small town PA and New Jersey, Long Beach Island specifically. Not sure what to make of my experience individually just that on L.B.I. time seems almost frozen. Not a lot of big chain stores and life there is generally very slow. (And I don't mean that in a bad way.)

[El Duderino 878]

Born and raised in the Los Angeles suburbs of Southern California, but I will be moving out to Colorado soon. I'll miss California, but I can't wait to get out of these suburbs. I hate the suburbs. 

[Phanact 333]

I'd love to live in Ponyville...

 

I live in Central Virginia 

[Sapphire Lightning 784]

The US state of Mane.

 

Oh, and there is kinda an omission in the list:

 

You have city, suburb, and rural, but no small town option. Many of us live in towns that aren't suburbs (IE not a part of or on the outside of a city. For instance I live in a town on an island with no associated city).

 

And Mane has an "i" in your poll, for some odd raisin.

[4HFan 476]

Arizona USA and proud of it too!

NSW Australia here, it's good to see that there's a tiny bit of geographical diversity here.

Oops, thanks! I missed that option. 

I added "small town" as an option.

 

Mane, hehe. XD 

That is how it should be called.

Eastern Washington has some nice cities with great weather. Little rain, sunny weather, not too unbearably hot (like in California), and beautifully maintained cities. Ellensburg, the Tri-Cities, and Wenatchee are really nice.

[Bojo 1,171]

I live in North America, in that country which is not the USA or Canada: Mexico!

 

Also, we got a Martian! Matt Damon is a brony confirmed.

Actually those cities can get pretty hot in the summer, but they're less humid than California. The Tri-Cities is basically sagebrush, as is a lot of eastern WA.

[Unikitty 1,211]

Ech. Never a fan of these as they always go into great detail about states across North America, whilst lumping the rest of the world into larger groupings. We get it, you have a population of 319(USA) and (35) million, a bunch of states, and a large area of land.

It should only be fair that if you go into such detail about one country, you should go into equal detail for the rest of the world. France and Germany are as different to each other as Canada and the US. Likely even more so. As with China and Japan(lumped into 'Asia'), or Egypt and Johannesburg(lumped into Africa), Australia and Papua New Guinea(lumped into Oceania/Australia), and so on so forth.

This is a good thread and at least some consideration has been taken towards the non-American population, and maybe as a non-American I feel a little salty about it, but I still feel like it's a case of "Where in America do you live, or do you live somewhere else?". Makes us feel a little minimised is all. If it was just asking about specifics across America, it'd be fine. Or if it reduced everything to a country-by-country basis.

 

To properly contribute to the thread, this post comes to you from an Australian in the Northern Territory. I won't select the option in the poll, just because I want to drive in the point that I'm not a New Zealander, Indonesian, Papua New Guinean, etc.

Eh. I'd rather avoid the West coast... Volcanoes and earthquakes, plus generally milder weather. I belong toward the Northeast, at least Michigan. Actually, I'm very much thinking Michigan, itself right now.

[Moved to Elsewhere 11,328]

I live in Illinois in the Chicago area. It's full of crime, corrupt politicians, hit or miss sports teams, fickle weather, and corn fields. Lots of corn fields. 

 

In America at least, you've never seen real Winter until you've come to Chicago. We're wearing jackets in 10 degree weather.

Someone gets mee

 

If its too much to have a poll on mlp with all the countries like you have the states, then why not use  a Google form?

Midwestern Earth Pony from Illinois!  I'm one of those that wouldn't mind if Chicago became it's own state, though, they definitely do not represent the rest of Illinois, yet it seems like all politics have to flow through them.  I'm hoping to save up enough to move even further away then the suburbs in a year or two.

[SaraEH 398]

Well i am from Denmark.. Wich is between Britain and sweeden.

I Was a bit toren about the equestria go to.. I ended up choosing center, because there Where more choices i liked, but i Was thinking about the frozen north, since me (and My sona) loooves snow, and especally ice <3

I don't know if I'd define where I live as inner city or suburban. I live in a part of NYC with a higher population density than the average suburb, but very few apartment buildings, mostly town houses.

 

I defined it as "inner city" because it would be defined as such statistically.

[Flutterbattyyy 330]

Michigan seems like a nice place. It kinda seems like the place I live in Oregon, actually. Similar greenery and such.

 

Here is my city, Happy Valley. It's a great place to live–-peaceful, well-maintained, beautiful views... a great little city.

 

 

 

 

We don't have to worry about volcanoes here, haha. The only major city to be threatened by a volcano is Tacoma, Washington. All the other cities, Portland, Seattle, Vancouver, Bend, Bellingham, etc, aren't in the path of volcanoes. In Portland, we have epic views of Mt. Hood and St. Helens, but their "flow" paths don't even pass close to the city. Mt. Hood's lahar flow path flows down the Sandy River–well away from Portland. Mount St. Helens also doesn't pose any threat to major cities.

 

Earthquakes, yeah... they are something to be concerned about. California gets a lot of them. In Oregon and Washington, we don't really have earthquakes. I am not absolutely positive on this, but I am pretty sure the NW is the safest region in the U.S. to live in, when talking about natural disasters. We don't get those crazy weather patterns, earthquakes, or ice that other places get. 

 

The climate here is quite similar to New York, actually. Same amount of rain, sunny days, etc. 

 

I've always wanted to visit Michigan. Looks beautiful, for sure.

 

 

I am in Oklahoma for college right now, so first year experiencing the Oklahoma weather here! XD

Fiiiiiiiine. I went and added in Europe and Australia/Oceania. But I ran out of questions to add (limit of 10), so I can't do Asia, S. America, or Africa, sadly. 

 

No offense intended. Europe and Australia are cool places with unique countries, for sure. I just ran out of time to create the poll and/or got lazy.

As for Equestria, I'd be lurking in a hut or cave in the Everfree Forest like the old crone that I am.
