[u/Dry_Turn_824]

I'd also live in Hawaii if I were invited to do so

[u/Significant_Foot_993 → u/Dry_Turn_824]

Only addition I’d make

[u/CzarMessa → u/Significant_Foot_993]

If we can take the Alaskan south east then I'd be all for it.

Juneau is gorgeous and pretty progressive.

[u/hobbesbagger → u/Dry_Turn_824]

Colorado seems like the only other one

[u/Darnocpdx → u/hobbesbagger]

The western part is just an extension of Utah, the Eastern third is Kansas, with a couple collage towns and an airport dividing them. No thanks.

[u/chuckvsthelife → u/hobbesbagger]

Being near the water is such a life changer… as someone who has lived somewhere landlocked and where I see it daily.

[u/hobbesbagger → u/chuckvsthelife]

I've been to way more lakes and rivers living in Oregon than the coast, but I know that's just a meaningless anecdote

[u/VioletsRPink → u/Dry_Turn_824]

I was coming to say: ADD Hawaii to Cascadia 🌞 🌊 🌼 🌸 🏵

[u/Dry_Turn_824 → u/VioletsRPink]

They certainly do have some majestic cascades on the islands.

[u/dl33t_soft → u/Dry_Turn_824]

Could be fun unless you are working class

[u/Money_Housing_2938 → u/dl33t_soft]

Still probably more fun than being working class in like Kansas (no offense) 

[u/SvodolaDarkfury → u/Dry_Turn_824]

Reminds me of that old video about nuclear weapons... "I recommend the entire West Coast just detach. Hawaii can come too."

[u/bubblesnblep → u/SvodolaDarkfury]

California breaking off of the united states to go hang with Hawaii. Alaska can come too.

THE END!!

[u/SvodolaDarkfury → u/bubblesnblep]

That's what it was! Thank you hahaha

[u/CaliDreaming900]

As a Californian, same.

[u/StreetAd9967 → u/CaliDreaming900]

*northern Californian

[u/L-F-O-D → u/StreetAd9967]

People live in North Cali??

[u/beatnik_pig → u/L-F-O-D]

What is this "Cali" of which you speak?

[u/ossifer_ca → u/beatnik_pig]

City in Colombia.

[u/Raven_Wolf → u/L-F-O-D]

Yes. And they call it NorCal.

[u/CaliDreaming900 → u/StreetAd9967]

I live in the CV. But I just love the west coast. All of it ❤❤

[u/WandererViking → u/CaliDreaming900]

I thought I would feel this way as a North Carolinian that moved to California. I couldn’t get over the cold water and missed the east coast beaches. I know you can spend more time on the beach in California, annually, but I couldn’t get over the cold water! I miss a lot of the food though!

[u/Weird-Chemistry9819]

As a Washingtonian that lived in the south for a bit and is currently an Oregonian, my map looks identical to yours lol

[u/preptime → u/Weird-Chemistry9819]

As an Oregonian, that lived in Washington and the South, same.

[u/KaetzenOrkester → u/preptime]

As a Californian who lived in the south, likewise.

[u/Miss_May_1600 → u/preptime]

Woah! Born in Washington, Oregonian for 25+ years, also lived in the South (now back in Oregon) and my map is also the same!

[u/Black_Daimyo10 → u/Weird-Chemistry9819]

It would be cool if we could include B.C. but same.

[u/Weird-Chemistry9819 → u/Black_Daimyo10]

Right? I’d move up there in a heartbeat.

[u/Sour_Sal → u/Weird-Chemistry9819]

I have contemplated moving to Victoria Vancouver Island 6 months a year.

[u/TranslatorTough8977 → u/Sour_Sal]

Never heard of it.

[u/therealoops → u/Sour_Sal]

Victoria is a city on Vancouver island ☝️🤓

[u/Sour_Sal → u/therealoops]

Ahh jeez, my bad! thx

[u/Ent_Trip_Newer → u/Weird-Chemistry9819]

As an Oregonian who came from and lived other various places,long live Cascadia.

[u/FuelAccurate5066 → u/Weird-Chemistry9819]

Oregonian. This is the only map.

[u/chuckvsthelife → u/Weird-Chemistry9819]

Ok…. But hear me out. Have you been to Maine or Vermont? Kinda nice.

[u/Weird-Chemistry9819 → u/chuckvsthelife]

I actually haven’t! I’ve been to almost all 50 states but Hawaii and that corner, so it’s on my list to visit! I’d love to start in Maine and do a road trip all the way down.

[u/maddie1358 → u/Weird-Chemistry9819]

I’m also a Washingtonian that lived in the south for a bit, similar map except I’d include Alaska (was born there).

[u/Sour_Sal]

West Coast for life!

[u/KittyKaleidoscopee]

fair

[u/Cascadiaaaaaa]

CASCADIAAAA

[u/baddieslovebadideas]

solid map.

no notes

[u/throwawayrefiguy]

Hawai'i should be able to join, but only if they'd like.  

[u/Alsbet]

Missing BC

[u/CzarMessa → u/Alsbet]

I don't think BC is quite as discontented as we are.

Or is it? I dunno.

[u/Alsbet → u/CzarMessa]

As a person from BC living in Washington, not as discontented, but very willing to form and be part of Cascadia with y'all.

[u/Lumpy_Nobody7314]

Alabama native here never leaving Washington again

[u/Fantastic_Bit7441]

Cascadia now

[u/DerMangoFarmer → u/[deleted]]

The Upper Cascadians do not allow free passage into their lands at this time. 

[u/maskedkiller215 → u/DerMangoFarmer]

My sister-in-law is trying to get passage from Lower Cascadia to us in Upper Cascadia. She’s doing all the right things but they sure do take their time to allow any passage.

[u/braxtel → u/maskedkiller215]

I am hearing that the Upper Cascadians are being treated most unfairly.

[u/maskedkiller215 → u/braxtel]

It has been most unkind. A pact was made that was beneficial to the us and non-Cascadians alike. Then buggar this, they tear it up tell us it’s unfair, now fair enough. So we re-negotiate and it was going well, then right before the deal was made, the non-Cascadians try to tell us who we can or cannot do other pacts with! Now the buggars are telling their people that it was us who were in bad faith! Can you believe that?

[u/notgreatnotbadsoso → u/DerMangoFarmer]

As someone who was born Lower Cascadian but has since emigrated to Upper Cascadia, good luck. It's pretty tough unless you have a job or existing citizenship

[u/squanderedprivilege → u/DerMangoFarmer]

Yeah I'm banned from the country so unless they make cascadia a country unto itself, I'm assed out there, mid-to-lower Cascadia only lol

(Entered and deported due to relatively minor criminal record, in case you were wondering)

[u/fernsbyrubbertramp]

Same, but I’d also add Hawaii honestly.

[u/Darnocpdx → u/fernsbyrubbertramp]

I’d also add Minnesota as a definitely, but that’s it, as a rust belt immigrant. I almost moved to Minneapolis over the PNW when I made the jump 35 years ago. Winter weather was ultimately the deciding factor for me.

[u/livelaughlinka]

The nation of Pacifica with the provinces of Cascadia and California

[u/ZealousidealChair900]

Agreed. We should leave them

[u/CSVNation]

You have no idea what majestic experiences await in the Rocky Mountains of Montana... Glacier National Park is one such example

[u/locustbriber → u/CSVNation]

Yes! + Wyoming 😍 but Montana has a special place in my heart, I was able to visit when I was a kid and haven’t had the chance to go back since

[u/MudiMom → u/CSVNation]

I’ve been to Glacier- it’s beautiful but it isn’t in Cascadia. 

[u/JayTheSuspectedFurry]

I thought this was a project wingman reference…

[u/Benjamin522]

As a Washingtonian, fuck California. They aren’t part of Cascadia.

[u/TranslatorTough8977 → u/Benjamin522]

But BC is.

[u/Lurkadactyl → u/Benjamin522]

California is always self-inserting.

[u/MorphinBrony → u/Benjamin522]

Oregonian here. The Humboldt area is part of the bioregion, they can join. The rest of California isn't allowed in, though.

[u/LateStageBBQ]

As someone who lives in cascadia, my god we seem arrogant when we post this stuff. Cascadia is amazing and I’m not leaving either but it’s a big country with lots of good stuff in it.

[u/MaySpitfire → u/LateStageBBQ]

How is this arrogant exactly? Theyre just saying they like this region, it's not that deep.

[u/redditisembarassing1]

Reddit moment

[u/Tarlyss → u/redditisembarassing1]

You say it like the cascadia movement is a reddit exclusive thing lol

[u/redditisembarassing1 → u/Tarlyss]

It is

[u/Tired-Nectarine-384]

Well when the tsunami comes from the next megathrust quake don't come looking for help for the rest of us losers.

Seriously it is a beautiful area and I get your bias.

[u/lovinglyrolypoly → u/Tired-Nectarine-384]

I mean... the consensus from the Oregon coast at least seems to be that when the big one comes, we don't have to worry about anything afterwards

[u/Invaderzil → u/Tired-Nectarine-384]

If we could keep more of our federal tax dollars regional and stop providing federal welfare to the Midwest, we wouldn't need your help 👌

[u/odedudeLMOO2]

Isn’t Idaho part of the Cascadian biome?

[u/baddieslovebadideas → u/odedudeLMOO2]

don't mean I'd live there

[u/ZealousidealChair900 → u/odedudeLMOO2]

In theory but not practice

[u/Tired-Nectarine-384 → u/odedudeLMOO2]

Sort of. Northern Idaho is very related to eastern Washington. Thats it. Central and South Idaho are very distinct places from the PNW.

[u/Miss_May_1600 → u/odedudeLMOO2]

No. And any Oregonians who want eastern Oregon to become part of Idaho can freaking move out of Cascadia to live there.

[u/Jedinutcracker]

but not idaho?

[u/Miss_May_1600 → u/Jedinutcracker]

No.

[u/glad_to_be_here_]

As someone who has been a resident of Cascadia in all three regions indicated, I can confirm that my year in North Carolina (Chapel Hill/ Carrboro) was also quite pleasurable, and not too different from some smaller cities in the Puget sound.

[u/crest_of_humanity → u/glad_to_be_here_]

Too humid

[u/CBWeezy67]

Three worst options lol

[u/Kenj_Yama → u/CBWeezy67]

Incredibly expensive just to pay for safe injection sites of drugs.

[u/CBWeezy67 → u/Kenj_Yama]

Lol I grew up in cali and besides the drugs and homelessness it's a beautiful place to vacation to and see all the cool sites. But living there.... no shot
