I am graduating in August with a degree in mechanical engineering. I want to spend my 20s in a bad arse town while I have nothing tying me down. I am pretty much open to anywhere in America. My criteria is:
1. Fun things to do
2. Outdoorsy type attractions
3. Good night life / music scene
4. Lots of young babes
Sell me on a city. TIA
Congrats on your upcoming graduation! A couple of suggestions:
1. Washington, DC. I spent several years there and absolutely loved it. Tons of stuff to do. Lots of young people from all over the country. It is a different part of the country, but still fairly easy to get to the South. It has a pretty nice climate. Colder than the south, but not crazy winters like you would get if you went further north. Easy access to the big cities in the northeast like NYC and Philly. You are fairly close to several beaches and not too far from the mountains in Virginia. If you move up there I would suggest either living in the city or at least one of the VA or MD suburbs on the Metro so you don't have to fight the traffic. I lived in the District and it was fantastic.
2. If you can handle the cold, Chicago is awesome. It has all the amenities of a truly world class city and a much lower cost of living than New York.

Excellent suggestions
Everyone nowadays seems to have Portland, Denver, Austin, ect. in their mind. But I think Washington DC is one of the best cities in the US. It has everything for everyone- transportation, arts, nightlife, sports, ect. Chicago is great too, but I prefer the East Coast, not that this is my thread

Thanks to all for the suggestions
Lots of good cities to consider. I wish I could travel around the country to get a feel for all these places, I have been rather limited in my travels. Really only been around the Southeast, D.C., and Denver.
