Correction. I pretty much "live" in Charlottesville, VA (Univ. of VA), which has less snowy winters. In fact, it practically never snows here.........it just ices up. I just hate winter, period. It's cold, nasty, and annoying to drive in. I'm def gonna look for a job down south when I get out of college. Plus, there's the aforementioned short days and no DST.

(Actually, had I attended UNC in Chapel Hill, NC, I would have had no snow at all and a milder climate )
