Fuck yeah! I don't even live in Florida or Texas but I would give anything to be even farther away from their braindead approach to governance.
Yes. Emphatically.
I dont know where I'd move to, cause I'm a broke poor and find it depressing to focus on unachievable details, but if my bank account had 9 zeros added to the end of it tomorrow? I'd find some place, spend a year or two hiring tutors for language and manners, then move the fuck there.
I'd love to get out of this city. It's a car addicted hellscape with a lot of personal baggage in it. A fresh start would do me so much good. I dream of living somewhere not so fucking car brained.
But if it's just enough money to move, then no. I moved states when I was younger and I can't live again knowing if anything goes wrong I might be homeless with no local support network. At least here I have some family. If I was rich, sure, but not if I have to work to keep a roof over my head.
Canada maybe
Canada and Russia likely see expansion of land suitable for agriculture in a warmer world.

Canada could be a huge climate change winner when it comes to farmland
The study, published today in the journal PLOS ONE, predicts about 4.2 million square kilometres of Canada that are currently too cold for farming crops like wheat will be warm enough by 2080 if greenhouse gas emissions continue to climb.
Currently, only a million square kilometres in Canada are warm enough for growing crops like wheat, corn and potatoes, he said.
I've been trying to convince my wife that we should move out of the USA for 4 years.
If I had unlimited F You money, I would either leave Nebraska or sponsor some carpetbaggers from New York or California, preferably enough of them to sway the elections here.
PNW, forests are pretty. I've long fantasized about dropping my life in Kansas and just moving to Tacoma like I'm a 19th century con artist trying to escape my past
Absolutely. I’d probably go to Ireland or Scotland.
I've travelled, not EXTENSIVELY, but I've been to other places. Honolulu, Seattle, San Francisco, San Mateo, Cupertino, Los Angeles, San Diego, Las Vegas, Chicago, Memphis. I got as far as the airports in Salt Lake City, Denver, and Atlanta.
I keep coming home to Portland because no matter where I've been... nothing compares to Powell's.
Norway. 2000 percent. That's where I'm from and want to visit. They also are satisfied citizens.
I was recently on a group hike with a university club, and an Austrian exchange student kept talking about how good life in Austria is. He attends university for free, lives in a vibrant city with great public transit, and with affordable housing.
My city has unaffordable housing, shit transit, and an inept local government. We are staking our future on oil prices constantly going up. The last time oil prices dipped was catastrophic, with mass layoffs and unemployment in nearly every sector.
On top of this we are being hit extra hard by climate change. Last summer I couldn't go outside because of wildfire smoke, and this year is going to be even worse. Every year there's less and less water, to the point where year round drought seems like an inevitability. Our politicians are climate change deniers. The people who elect them couldn't care less, and cry about any measures taken to mitigate it's effects.
I don't want to be stuck paying $2000 a month for a studio apartment as the climate around me slowly degrades, and my politicians try their best to turn us into America.
A sizeable fraction of the students I've talked to about this has or is playing around with the idea of leaving. Austria is just the first country that came to mind, but I would take almost any EU country if the opportunity was offered.
Maybe. I have been to a few countries outside of my own and wouldn't want to live in any of them more than where I already do. I've also been to almost all 50 states (haven't been to Alaska, Hawaii or Maine) and I havent wanted to live in any other than the one I already do.
I wanna check out Japan and the whole Scandinavian region. All those countries sound cool as fuck, but I've never been to 'em to know how they really are.
Would probably stay in the same state, maybe in the same city, but not in the same apartment.
I feel like being closer to my aging parents is going to start being more important, and we’re starting to get together a good medical team for my stepdaughter who has some challenging medical issues. Rebuilding that team in another state could be challenging and would take time, to say nothing of other countries that have nationalized health care that don’t even believe the disease exists.
This is definitely going to be more important for me too in the next 10 years or so. My parents are divorced and live in entirely different states, so I'm not sure at this point what will happen, who will move to be closer to whom, etc.
No. I don't like where I live (because it's a big city) but I'm living near my family.
If not for that, I would probably be back in New Hampshire. I used to live there alone with a 100% work-from-home job and I would go weeks without speaking to another human being face-to-face. I left because it wasn't great for my mental health but for some reason I still really want to go back.
I'd travel by land. Possibly with a bicycle, if foldable, cause I like to walk on foot too.
Not alone, I think, and with radio (other things aside, catching cold or getting food poisoning in the middle of nowhere can result in death, and of course more extreme things like breaking a bone).
Not intentionally in some wilderness.
EDIT: Why the downvotes, I think nomadic lifestyle is one way to answer this question.
I would love to move somewhere with a bit cooler weather, but I would not like to leave all the family that slowly moved here.
I would like to be somewhere warmer. Wanna trade families?
I'd want to head for the Canadian Rockies, somewhere near Banff. Not just for the cool name, but also because I like the cold and snow, I love the mountains, and it's going to be one of few places on Earth that will be habitable even with the worst of climate change.
Though now that nuclear war is back on the table I'm thinking Patagonia.
Australia, new zealand or the parts of canada near a large body of water to moderate temperatures
If I could afford it (and to come back and visit family or to bring them to visit me) I'd move to New Zealand in a heartbeat.
