Money no object? Manhattan no question.
I can deal with crowds and rudeness. I could waste a decade just going at my own pace from park to park and museum to museum and restaurant to restaurant. Just soak in all there is to experience. Nothing on the island is 'too far' from Central Park, so I could 'waste' another decade with biking, walking, bird watching, people watching, sports, . . . then slow down to photography and painting. Even if nothing changed [and face it, time marches on], I picture a good 1/4 century before boredom or wanderlust would set in. I honestly think my philosophy and temperament are optimized for an urban life of wealthy [or at least the removal of wealth as an obstacle] leisure. About the only thing I'd picture missing is woodworking. A bit too much to ask to haul a workspace and skads of raw materials into dowtown Manhattan just for my amusement.

If money were no object, the last place I'd live would be near any city. Look for me up in the mountains somewhere.
Just don't look too hard. |

SF, followed by San Diego and Seattle. San Diego has the best weather, but less vibrant than SF. Seattle gives you almost as much as SF, but the weather would kill me.

I'm leaning San Diego. Ideal weather, urban enough, and a great beer scene.

Perhaps downtown Breckenridge, Colorado. Any of its six or eight blocks.

KC because it would be an easy walk to Chiefs and Royals games.
