The BIG Dig
The Big Dig is located in Massachusetts and is considered to be one of the most complexed highways in the United States. The Big Dig was constructed to replace a 6 lane highway that caused heavy traffic and expanded it to a ten lane highway with bridges that made it connect with the airport and downtown Boston. A plus for the big dig is that it took traffic away from neighborhood streets and kept them on the highway. The highway also had many problems that came with it due to bad construction, criminal arrest, one death, and a leak. The BigDig is most controversial because of its price tag being $2.8 billion in federal tax money and is projected to be well over $22 billion within the next 15 years.

Good city...Bad city
Bad City
New York City, New York
New York City is one of the most populated cites in America, with a population of 8 million people. This city also does not have sufficient parking due to the way the city was made in its original form and most people have to rely on taxis to get around. Speaking from personal experience, its not really too clean either in some parts especially close to the subways. Last but not least, the cost of living is also high being at $2,801 which is significantly high to the average American.
Good City
Atlanta (no)
California(umm too many wildfires and over crowded)
Florida ( Taxes are too high..so no)
HAWAII...YES!!!!
Why not?!?!?! Hawaii is one place I believe I would want to live in for many reasons:
- Weather (temperate)
- Scenary (beaches, trees, and beautiful women)
- Not very populated (1.3 million)
- Low crime rate
- One of the top law schools when it comes to Environmental Law
