Where would I Want to Live in the English Colonies?

If i were to live in one of the three English Colonies, I'd probably live in one of the Middle Colonies. They were right in the middle of the New England and Southren Colonies. Some advantages of living in the Middle Colony would be that you could have religious freedom there (because that's why they was founded), they had more of a social and economic democracy, and they had an o.k. education system (at least better than the Southren Colonies.) Another good thing about the middle colonies was that they were known for their bread, and I like bread! The disadvantages of living in the Middle Colonies would be that they were industry based colonies (I'm not much of a factory girl), they were more ethnically diverse, so you'd have to get used to being with a ton of different people from different cultures speaking different languages right at once, which isn't always fun, and that women could not attend colleges, something I'd definately want to do when graduating high school.
