best hippie place to live?

A great counter culture all located right next door to the biggest trees in the world! There are a lot of homeless but I found most of them too be fairly harmless. I sat at a little wine bar near the arcata square and watched an entire green painted bus unload some of the coolest people I'd ever seen. A guy with a kitten just hanging out on his camping pack, a girl with what look like fire eating torches retrofitted to a hula hoop, a guy with dreads to his ass and a dreaded beard. All sorts of cool people! The redwood state park is right near by and is a sight everyone should see before they die. The place looks like its from a prehistoric time and the trees just refused to conform to the modern world, much like the inhabitants! When I walked through the park I ended up talking to a guy who was 98 years old and had worked as a logger back in the day! Even the straight edge folks are cool. You should give it a look!

 

wow thank you so much I'm that much more excited!!

 

Seems like Canada is the place to go. I've been trying to figure out where to relocate as well once I get my shit together. I've heard great things about Oregon though.

 

arcata is only an hour south of the oregon border.. I'm stokeddddd

 

Sounds good! If the apartments are decent and cheap, I'd have to consider that as well.

 

yeah i heard humboldt/arcata is one of the less expensive places to live in cali..

 

Hard to find any place, everywhere in the world, to live our hippy ideal, really.
What do we need ?

- A place where we can leave for very cheap, and sane
- Good people to share with : open, colorful, happy to live, sane (not destroyed by drugs), warm, peacefull, not too square...
- Nature
- Enought warmth so we can be relaxed
- freedom (so we can bath naked if we want, think what we want, dress as we feel)

Anything else ?

(San Francisco is too expensive, Burning Man is quiet crazily expensive too and full of tourists now, rainbow gatherings are more and more under smoke)

Love brothers and sisters

I live in chattanooga as of right now and the mountains are packed full of hippies but the place I want to live the most would be Ashville, NC...

Peace & LOve

 

an old school bus is a great hippy place to live.

 

Eureka Springs, Arkansas seems like a really groovy hippie place. Very laid back and not too big of a town. I went there a year and a half ago and I wanna go back. Lots of bikers though.

 

I've heard that Bisbee, Arizona is good but I just don't fancy the desert all that much. Still thinking about it though... that or somwehere in Oregon.

 

best hippie place to live?

In my own mind!!!! Nothing beats it :coolgleamA:

 

Eugene,of course.

Forgot to add about Oregon=only state in the union that will issue medical marijuana cards to out of staters.

 

Certainly NOT here!

 

Asheville, NC is not too bad of a place to live if you are not a part of mainstream society. . The cost of living has went up and it is harder to find a job now. I have a lot of friends who have lived there for years and love it.

 

Bisbee's cool, I was there last year and it got friggin cold. 7*f cold, the hotel we were in froze. Not much going on there mostly tourist stuff.

All of Oregon is cool.
