    Bozeman, Montana! Not many vegans out here but the ones that do live here sure make up for it!

    Wasilla, Alaska! Not too many vegans that I know of, although there is a vegetarian society that holds potlucks monthly.

    Massachusetts. Pretty good for vegans I think, and an all around nice state. Can be expensive to live here though.
    I plan on visiting some places out west, but will probably always end up back in the new england area.
    I live in NH but on the Mass border and I go to Mass all the time for vegan stuff. It's the best for veganism!!

    Erwin, Tennessee, where people act personally offended by healthy eaters, let alone vegans! Sometimes it's tough being liberal, vegan, and pagan here.

    But, on a good note, there is an Earth Fare about 15 miles away and I'm less than an hour away from Asheville, NC. Very vegan-friendly!

    Providence, Rhode Island. I love New England, and I appreciate the fact of the veggie/vegan restaurants there are. If anyone is ever in the area, Julians Restaurant on Broadway has the best vegan gingerbread pancakes hands down! Yummm!

    Flagstaff, Arizona.
    Don't know any other vegans or vegetarians. There is one vegan restaurant and a good store for produce. Sedona nearby has a raw vegan restaurant. Lots of people here hunt and are involved in ranching. Not a place where vegans can have an easy time. I don't go out to eat so it works for me. The views and out door activities make up for what the town lacks in vegan friendliness.

    That's cool - I really like Portland too. And I do love the Northwest. So beautiful and I actually prefer rain to sunshine (strange I know - but this climate is perfect for me. ). But with that said, it is pretty awesome to have mild temperatures year round (depending on how close you are to the coast) and to have the ocean right there is really awesome too. I just really liked the feel of San Diego and people seemed really friendly. Not everybody, of course, but compared to L.A., definitely an improvement. The only three places I want to live the rest of my life are either Seattle (preferred), San Diego or San Francisco (or Boston if I have to go to the East Coast).

    I live in redmond,oregon. Which isn't vegan friendly at all, but bend is only a couple mintues away. But I hate that portland and eugene are over a hour away. Their are a few health food stores I can go to and a few places to eat. I have met any other vegans here. I was to move back to portland , I used to live their when I was a child. I visit their every fall.

    I completely agree. I moved (back) to Seattle from a small town near Spokane, which was definitely not vegan friendly. It's amazing how Seattle and Portland can both be awesome cities to be vegan - some of the best in the world, but you go to the central or eastern portions of those states and it's the polar opposite.

    Outside of Beaumont, Texas. There aren't any vegan restaurants around here, but I can get a good couscous salad at Goodfella's, and Pei Wei Asian Dining has some vegan-friendly dishes. I get my supplies at HEB and Basic Foods on Dowlen Road.

    There are a couple of vegan restaurants in Houston, but I haven't been to them. I don't go to Houston much. People can't drive there and it scares the shit out of me. Once on a fieldtrip to Houston in high school, two different people tried to crash into/run our school bus off the road. Who does that?

    I say you can go vegan literally anywhere. (I know the op never said you couldn't but I'm just saying!)
    One vegan, whose youtube videos I watch, lives in a developing country and is a vegan.

    Personally, I live in Pennsylvania and one word: hunters!
    It sucks to be a vegan here. Only because I live right next to the woods
    and during hunting season I can hear gun shots from hunters killing deers. So sad And I sometimes see photos posted on Facebook of people i know that are hunters. One guy had a picture of a dead deer by him and he was smiling. It really disturbed me to see him so happy that he killed an animal. He never had that type of characteristics in him, or so I thought.
    Pennsylvania has the most hunters out of anywhere in the U.S.A.

    So, if you hate animal hunting than that makes it hard on vegans. Because most people here are hunters and tend to
    be against vegetarianism, let alone veganism! However, there is a nice vegan restaurant in Pittsburgh I really want
    to go to sometime.

    I think the best state to be vegan in the USA would be New york. I would say L.A. but that's not a state.
    Those NY vegans have it lucky! lol

    Maybe Vermont. They seem like evolved, open minded people. Plus they are the healthiest state
    in the USA! So there may be a lot of people following a vegan diet.

    NYC is not a state either.

    I live in NY and it's nothing like NYC. I had to drive through 3 states to visit NYC and it was well worth it.

    Stamford, Connecticut. Unfortunately, though, I think there are only about 5 or 6 vegetarian restaurants in the STATE (and, yeah, we're small, but we're not that small) so that gives you some idea of how vegan-friendly it is around here. It's too bad, cause if you're a nature lover, Connecticut's a lovely place.

    Any other CT vegans out there?
    I'm from CT... and one of my cat's names is Cyan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm in Bristol, CT. There isn't much up here. There is this place I want to check out in New Milford, CT called "The Sweet Spot". It isn't vegan, but their vegan cupcakes are amazing! http://thesweetspotct.com/about.html. The Cali melt and Southern Fried Tofu (aka Sou Fry) at It's Only Natural, in Middletown, are delicious. http://www.ionrestaurant.com/ This restaurant is almost entirely vegan. They do offer diary cheese if you prefer. There is also Shoreline Diner in Guilford that has a vegetarian section on their menu.

    One place I am considering moving (in the future) is Winter Park, FL. It is located at the northeast corner of Orlando and both those areas are veggie and vegan-tastic!
