Umm.....Id probably live in the Imperial City because the Arcane University is there, or I could be a Guard if I wanted to. Or I could live in a small town and hunt for a living

I don't know why, but Anvil has always felt like home. Nothing better than laying on the beach with a bottle in one hand and the other on your sword, constant vigilance.

I'm not sure what my favorite city in Morrowind is, I've never really liked any of them as much as Anvil in Oblivion. Sadrith Mora is cool, but Balmora has more of the 'home' feel; though so does Ald-Ruhn, Caldera has the creeper though, decisions decisions....

Oh, I HATE Vivec. I would live in Joshaba's rare books though, do like the author of Doors of Oblivion and dissapear into an endless library. Ebonhart is cool though too.

I've always liked Skingrad nice tallish buildings on either sides of the streets, it always feels nice and cozy. Bruma would be my second choice, just because I've always liked the cold.

Technically not Cyrodiil. But I kinda like Crucible :Twisted Evil:

Otherwise I'd probably go for Cheydinhal. It's the most beautiful city in my opinion.

I'd live in either Skingrad or Bruma. Skingrad is just.. awesome and Bruma is a nice little "cozy" town. What I'd really like is to move the Anvil house to Skingrad or Bruma and live there.

well, convienience of the commute to "work" aside, I'm sure everyone has at some point watched the sun-set from the Anvil lighthouse. That's cool.

Skingrad's okay, sunrise at the castle is cool. It's also fun to break into the lord's manor and surprise Janus Hassildor

Looking at sunrises should be blinding you from a lighthouse...

Anyways, Anvil seems like too busy of a port town to me.

Bruma is too cold, but I have a feeling Skingrad gets perfect temperatures year round. Cheydinhal always has seemed too small with not enough interaction.

The Imperial City can be an obvious choice. It could be said that this was like a town in the medieval period, and there's plenty to do in this, "richman's haven".

Leyawiin is similar to Cheydinhal in the sense that there's not enough interaction. Not to mention Leyawiin seems disconnected from the rest of Cyrodiil. Bravil is known as the "poorman's haven". Since it smells bad there, it isn't a good choice, and it seems like a horribly kept town.

Chorrol is interesting, but once again, not a lot of interaction around there, but they do have the Great Oak Tree. The location seems kind of far out with annoying "almost-there-cold" temperatures.

Well considering how much money I have (I take it I would be able to amass just as much if it was "real life"?!), I think I'd have to buy the Imperial Prison and have it made over into my own private house.

Convenience of the IC, but w/o the unwashed masses and v. nice views! I've always liked the Prison area.

Would def need to add more windows in the walls though, so I could fully appreciate those lake and mountain views!

...and maybe a w/e house in Brindle Home for when I wanted to escape the city.

Lol I wonder who the two whom voted for Bravil are. :P

No one votes for Leyawiin because there would be too much Argo-jiit conflict.
