We both wanted to start our family life in an ideal place that we were crazy about ( Salt Lake is cool , we were just ready for a change ) . We compiled various statistics on different metropolitan areas across the country , with over 20 different cities on the list . We then did a side - by - side comparison on stuff like taxes , cost of living , education , real estate pricing , weather , NHL teams , the job market , the economy and several other important factors . After an exhaustive study of Rebecca 's killer Excel spreadsheet over several days , we both concluded independently ( and later together ) that Raleigh was far and away the best place for us ... on paper at least .
What country were these people in ?
