Alright damnit, Im sick of Vegas! Too many no-show locals, coked up visitors, and just plain weirdos! I love my regulars I keep, and the business men that come to town from time to time but everyone else is starting to depress me, (I will relate a very funny story though, that happened today though on the board later on) and I want out!
Sadly I just bought a condo, but that can be rented out-- I want to find a new home base city!

So heres my question-- what is the best city to work in? Taking into consideration all aspects of living there, including cost of living (which is why I shun NY, dont wanna pay 2000 a month for a hovel), hobby traffic in general, major business dealings throughout the year, the need for an exotic girl (some cities have thier preferences) as I am cuban and french creole so I look distincively differnt, local laws, UC rules and LE tolerance (or lack there of) of "private entertainment", pet laws and regulations (strange as this may sound I hear some cities dont tolerate large snakes and I've got a few), local scenery (I need to keep myself entertained), and of course innercity crime ( I know every city has it problems but some more than others)....
Also keeping in mind that I do visit other cities, so if a city wouldnt be ideal to live in, but is in need of more variety in thier provider lists I would still like to be aware of it and so on....

Ladies, I need an inside track, so please field this one as well, I love to hear from the guys but I need the real scoop from the other end!

Chicago is the best town for the hobby. The guys here are accused of being cheap asses, but I know that many providers do very well here. Take any of the Wisconsin (emphasis on "sin") that come here regularly and are indies do very well month to month. If you service is excellent, then you can't go wrong here. The GOOD word travels fast.

On the East Coast there seems to be lots of activity and touring providers converging on cities like Washington, DC and Boston like they came in on the team bus. A constant state of activity(See the EROS vistors section to see what I mean) These people arnt here because they are checking the place out on a whim. There is plenty of local talent as well and I suspect, in Washington at least, they are overlooked by hobbyists who are saving them for when times are slow. This is, of course, not good for the local women. I wouldnt go to south florida on a bet. I may be wrong but there seems to be a never ending unlimited supply there. Tampa-St.Pete maybe different though.
In your position I might look where the there is a large upscale urban population and not huge numbers on the TER ,TBD or ASPD boards. For instance, (just an example here not a recommendation) Pittsburgh,PA 2 million people, the steel mills closed years ago so its a much cleaner city now with a much smaller blue collar work force than before. People who live there seem to love it. Check the cities where the touring agencies send people again and again that seem curious at first glance. They are doing this for a good reason. The other factors are all personal choices; weather, climate, taxes etal.
Hope this helps a little. Best wishes to you!

....call me crazy, but I love my babies, they make great pets. I keep them separate from my clients when I do incall so no one freaks out, but I have 3, one 5 foot bal python, one mex black boa who will be 6-7 feet soon, and I just bought a baby albino lucestic texas rat snake who will grow to be 8-9 feet, and some cities do not allow large snakes I have come to find....

I have a few pets... I love animals...

Thats the only thing I do like about vegas-- you can pretty much have whatever you want out here... I thought about getting a panther if I could get a license and I bought a house out here....

heh-- we all have our more intersting habits, but thats not even close to my better ones...

Providers and their children, etc. because it wrecks their Fantasy.   But what if their babies are albinos, boas and pythons!  
 I'm pretty sure I want to meet the snakes.  Maybe you can train them to be my handcuffs.  Maybe you should move to L.A.

Ok, Dani. You've got my attention. While I am personally unnevred by your babies, me thinks you should be a bit reluctant to share these stories, because most of these guys already dread their dicks falling off. Perhaps because your precious babies might get hungry for a little snack and if the guy slips and dips into the wrong hole, it's lights out... You might want to do a study of those guys wouldn't didn't quite want to become regular clientel after viewing them in their elongated splendor. As hobbies go, this one might make you 'lose' a little business and most guys are senstive to where they stick it : )

...thats why I keep them separate! No one at all would have ever known if I hadnt said anything, I think I have shown them to a client all of 6 times, and those were people that I already knew liked snakes or had some themselves. I wouldnt want to put my business at risk-- nor make anyone think Im a total weirdo... so I keep em locked away when company is about....

And even he will give a better explanation than that. Now, if you've had a bad experience here, I suspect that that you were dabbling in the street trade. There a countless quality indies here and many agencies that perform excellently. Like all large cities you have to naviage around the pimps and low lifes who are just off the street, but on average, with price and quality being the biggest factors, Chicago beats out NY, LA, SF, and Miami and your beloved HOUSTON, which to me is mostly about providers who formerly were on the stroll and cleaned up just enough to make the eFucking a business. Don't slam a locale if you can't offer reasons. Your opinion and your asshole then become the same body part.

I am curious to know why you feel that is the case.  Any providers that also feel as 6 does...please chime in also.
I think we have pretty good people here as clients and providers

Chicago isn't one of the worst cities, but it's probably in the lower 50 percentile. Now shows are the most common problem cited by ladies.  Some say LE in Chicago (towards internet girls)is a big threat but frankly that is a grossly exagerated issue. While not the most liberal of cities in this regard, proper screening should alleviate LE concerns easily.

That said, there are many ladies that say Chicago is their favorite city to visit and they do great business there. I think if you are a solid provider with good reviews you'll do fine working in Chicago.

Boston and Washingtond DC seem to be the most favorable cities for traveling ladies. They send em by the bus load to those cities and they ladies do very well (assuming they are credible w/ good reviews, etc.)
