From Wisconsin. I colo my servers out of Chicago. Wisconsin (And indeed most of middle America) has a pretty cheap cost of living which allowed me to bootstrap my own startup. Living an hour from my servers for that once-every-few-months trip for hardware maintenance isn't really a problem.

Overall, it's quite pleasant, aside from Wisconsin being rather boring in the overall. I'd rather live in Chicago, but my wife's job is here. It's not an intellectual hot-spot or anything, but it's sufficient for running a business.

And it's a pretty peasant place to raise children whenever we decide to start squeezing a few out.

*The property taxes such HARD in Wisconsin (particularly the Milwaukee Area).
