Proving we think the grass is always greener on the other side, half of us want to live somewhere other than where we live now. And the top choice for those who just want to get the heck out of Dodge is...Denver. That's the word from a survey of 2,260 adults conducted by the Pew Research Center. Why Denver? It has low humidity, eight professional sports teams and proximity to the Rocky Mountains. Fully 43 percent of those surveyed cited Denver as the place they would most like to live, followed by San Diego and Seattle. The least favorite cities were Detroit, Cleveland and Cincinnati.

The most livable state in the U.S.A. is... (And where does YOUR state stand on this list?)

Most popular cities where people want to live:
1. Denver (43 percent)
2. San Diego (40 percent)
3. Seattle (38 percent)
4. Orlando (34 percent)
5. San Francisco (34 percent)
6. Tampa (34 percent)

If you want to go where the beautiful people are, stay away from these three cities. (We'll also tell you where the gorgeous babes live!)

Least popular cities where people want to live:
1. Detroit (8 percent)
2. Cleveland (10 percent)
3. Cincinnati (13 percent)
4. Kansas City (15 percent)
5. Minneapolis (16 percent)
6. Pittsburgh (17 percent)

Surprise! The fattest people live in THIS popular city. Blame it on too much fast food and TV.

Fun facts to know and tell:
-- Republicans would like to live in Phoenix, while Democrats prefer San Francisco.
-- More men than women would like to live in Las Vegas.
-- Men who live in rural areas are much happier living there than are women.
-- Most people who live in cities said they'd rather live someplace else.

This Florida town may be heaven on earth, but do you dare live here?
