Count down..2 more days
I think this question is a bit broad. To the best of my knowledge there's no State in the US which isn't family friendly parse. Other things you may want to consider before deciding on where to stay could include nearness to friends/families, your job industry/job interest, the weather, the make-up/municipality of the place - (the list is endless)
........ I'm sure any other person could take a stab at answering this too.
Personally however, the number one State I would never consider settling in as an immigrant is Arizona! This largely has to do with the “Show me your papers” provision of Arizona’s 2010 immigration law, SB 1070 — which went into effect in September 2012. Admittedly this law is intended to help the State streamline, if not completely eradicate an influx of undocumented immigrants, the bottom line is this immigration law empowers its enforcers to engage in racial profiling.
The US justice system in general provides for an accused person's innocence until proven guilty, Arizona's SB 1070 on the other hand presumes all immigrants to be guilty until proven innocent! In Arizona, I would be presumed to be an illegal immigrant, simply because I speak with an 'accent', the cops have the right to demand to see my papers without having committed any crime. Of course the State is not admitting to engaging in racial profiling in the course of enforcing this law. A couple of other States enacting similar draconian law include: Alabama, Georgia, Utah, Indiana and South Carolina.
Now this is not to say that immigrants cannot thrive or prosper in these listed states, as I am not trying to discourage people from going to whichever place they plan on settling in. As a matter of fact, these States may actually score higher on other yard sticks an immigrant might be using to decide on where they want to settle in the US. It is simply a matter of personal preference and how much an individual can take.
House,
Hey guys how is the race? Hope everything is nice and will always be nice........................
Nesh & all those guys who are waiting for interviews, just take your time to revise everything especially issues related to your marriages(if applicable). Also remember to go thru the photocopies of the Forms that you sent to KCC>>>>>>>They mostly asks questions from these Forms, your births certs and academic certs. Answer the questions the way they ask(don't give them a story unless when asked to describe otherwise some complicated questions may arise). When asked an obvious quiz, do NOT answer them with "Of course"........................Its a kind of a rude language. Me & ma family just afraid of the unknown climate.......................anyway we might be flying on 23rd Nov, 2012. It is my wish in my prayers for all members to win this race....May God bless everyone. Otherwise niaje? we're in pay day week, kuna mpango? @ Dominsty, Nesh.......Vipi?
Be with God and definitely the visas are yours. God is a WINNER
All the best guys...................Remember ........................Confidence................
@ Nesh..................Beware of some con-men along the United Nations Avenue near the US Embassy 1st Gate (this is where you will be told to wait for your time by the KK guards). Some might convince to offer you an AOS coz they know everyone there", must be carrying cash and end up defrauding you(Most of them are very smart, wearing black suits)
Well well thank you LOADS Sm1smom!!!!! I had planned that after 2 years i will move to Phoenix Arizona but with this accent of mine my documents will get old by showing them to the authority every time i meet them.
