Personally, I recommend California, since I love love love it here. Los Angeles is the only place I've ever loved living. I've spent some time in San Francisco, and I have some family there, and I can vouch that it's an awesome place to be. San Diego is nice, although it's a little suburby for my tastes.
Elsewhere in the US, I have always liked Chicago: pretty, nice people, good pizza. Also, Washington, DC is pretty nice. The public transportation there is freaking great! Excellent museums, too.
I have a good friend who lives in Seattle, and he swears by the city. Says it's the best place he's ever lived, by lightyears. I haven't been there yet, so I can't verify, but he makes it sound good.
If you're interested in living outside the US, I recommend London above all other places. It's expensive as fuck-all, but it is my favorite city on the planet. Great food, great music, great theater, great museums, great public transportation, nice people. The biggest downside, aside from the price tag, is the difficulty in getting soda that's cold enough. Damn Brits never chill their drinks enough. Still, that's a pretty small trade for free health insurance....
