Seeking ideas on location search

13 years ago
We are considering relocating for new opportunities in life. Seeking comments from others about where this journey might take us.
The goal is to find a moderate temperature climate. We like the four seasons, but prefer shorter winters, yet, want to avoid too arid of climate where there's a long 'brown season'. Mountains are nice, but must have rolling hills. We love larger trees for shade and beauty. Wanting a more rural setting, within 30-60 miles of a metro area. We plan to build ourselves a nearly energy independent home (earth contact, wind, solar, water) with contemporary, prairie style.

So the questions are:

Given those stated parameters, where do you see as an ideal living area -- and why?

What design and technology suggestions would you offer?
