Lisa forwarded this site to me today.

Forget Fortune Magazine's Top Spots. This site lists places where YOU would like to live, based on what important to you. I put in my criteria, and told it to look in New England, Mid-Atlantic, and the Rockies.
Whats interesting is the amount of places in MA and VT. On top of the list is Williamstown MA. This is like 10 minutes from where Lisa and I will go with Deb and Phil in October. Sweetness. Lewisburg PA is also on the list, and I was thinking about a more mountainous PA location for my next job (post-grad), especially around here. Some excerpts:
