Illinois or Iowa are the best in my opinion.

I work at Glasgow international airport for the TSA. So i'd like to do the same over in the US. My boyfriend is an American citizen and has an associates degree in science, a dimploma in Aero engineering and mechanical engineering. Not sure what he could do there, hopefully something good with his background. I would like to live somewhere not near a city but where the TSA are. About 20 miles from my work max.

But with good opportunities for hunting etc.

Nice climate, not cold or anything too. Not run down but progressive and quite laid back. No overspill from a city like some which are so busy.

i believe S. Carolina has the longest hunting season in the U.S. it starts in August and runs throughout the year. they also have generous bag limits.

Cool, that's nice. I like the idea of where I am just now. I am 5 miles from my work but im also 20 from our biggest city. I like being rural.

This is my opinion with limited knowledge, but here goes.

1) Kentucky - there's lots of good reports on W. kentucky near Illinois
2) Missouri - I've seen many good reports on Missouri as well.
3) Alabama - late rut as far as rut goes and that makes it nice. Gun season is still long though.
4) Mississippi - I've heard alot of good about Mississippi.
5) Georgia - I live in GA. Numbers are great, but it's rare to shoot bucks over 120, and almost
impossible to get a booner. Rifle season is too long and deer limit too high IMHO.
6) South Carolina- to long of a gun season in many areas.
7) Virginia - don't know much about it.
8) North Carolina- don't know anything about it.
