Ryan,
Congrats on being in the current position you're in, getting ready to enjoy the fruits of years of your hard-earned labor. Being a combat veteran, I realize more than most that happiness is paramount, and a few years ago, I was blessed with enjoying the same opportunity you now face. The world was my "oystah", and I could live wherever in the world that I chose. For me, there was no other choice than the mountains of western North Carolina.
I now live in a town with a population of less than 24K, and can honestly say that, having travelled extensively and having lived in FL, CA, GA, and in the Raleigh area (Cary), I can't imagine ever living anywhere else permanently. If I can offer you any advice, I would say that your choice of where to live really depends upon what you guys are "into", the type of environment you envision being best for your children to grow up in, and what (if any) kind of employment you would be seeking once living there. Discuss with your wife the family activities you feel would make you feel happiest, then target the "best" locations worldwide supporting those activities.
If you enjoy outdoor recreation - hiking, biking, snowboarding/skiing, whitewater, or simply camping while visiting national parks & forests - look to the mountains. If beaches are your thing, obviously look to coastal communities. Although you do not want to live in the city proper, you will eventually have to visit one nearby, as smaller towns in rural areas don't have all of the amenities you'll find yourself needing. Whatever part of the world you decide you would prefer to live in, figure out what you feel is a reasonable drive time to "the big city" and base your search radius from it's midpoint.
For most people, it's a scary proposition to pack it all up & leave their comfort zone; if all you two feel at this point is excitement at the prospect of leaving, that's great - it means you're ready to leave & not look back. If that is the case, I hope two very useful resources for your research will be the list of US Chambers of Commerce located at www.50states.com and International buyer resources found on the source website below. If you like, you may also review some of my previous answers to other folks' questions by clicking on the profile picture for more relevant info. If more questions, please feel free to ask.
Take care, Ryan - and good luck!! |

Los Altos Hills! (Or just plain ol' Los Altos)
Celebrities live there, and MOST (3/4) are gated areas.
I know someone who lives there and she says it is paradise!!!!
EDIT: Houses range from $1.5mill - $27mill. I'm sure you can find yourself a decent $2mill-$4mill house there. Living in Los Altos/Hills means that you can go celebrity-watching and go shopping at all the luxurious! |

I recommend Fayetteville or other towns in NW Arkansas. You can get a really nice home for under $1M. Low crime rate. High quality of life ratings. Good schools. University town. 4 seasons. Low cost of living.
If you need a buyer agent to help you find a home, contact me, arealtorlady@yahoo.com.
Search the local MLS at http://www.NWArkansasHomeSearch.com. |

Hm. I would say PARADISE VALLEY, ARIZONA.
That is the wealthiest city in Arizona and most of the valley is gated communities. My father-in-law lives there so I fly to him often. |

Connecticut and some parts of New Jersey are very beautiful and safe for your kids to grow up. It all depends on how much you want spend. |

Look into Virginia Beach, Virginia. Low crime rate and luxurious homes on the oceanfront (Sandbridge). Weather is moderate with 4 seasons (but rarely snow) -- flat (no wear and tear on your vehicle). Great place for kids -- plenty to do here! |

you get a lot more house in southern states like VA than what you get up north, and with all the northerners moving down here (like me...) there's more money, and nicer houses. |
