It all depends on what is most important to you
Assuming Utah is out of the question, and assuming what might possibly be important to you based on what is important to me, here is where I would move:

Taxes: Move to any state without an income tax (Washington, Tennessee, Florida), or any state rich in oil (Wyoming, Alaska, Texas). Oil rich states generally have a lower tax burden overall.

Education: Move to a state the spends lots of education: Massachusetts, Virginia, Minnesota.

Weather/Climate - Move to a CITY (important distinction) that has the climate you want:
Snow: Denver, Spokane, Reno-ish
Sun: Phoenix, Dallas, Miami
Seasons: Boston, Green Bay, Richmond VA
All Around: Medford OR, St George UT, Charleston SC, San Diego CA

Family:
Can't beat Utah (specifically Utah County), St Louis MO (don't laugh), Des Moines IA, Indianapolis IN, Detroit MI suburbs (surprise), Almost any suburb of a midwestern town, etc.

History:
Philadelphia, Boston, Washington DC

Sports:
Atlanta, Los Angeles, Detroit, Boston

Job Opportunities: (depends on your industry)
New York, Raleigh NC, Los Angeles, Atlanta, Chicago, Kansas City MO, Seattle

Low Cost of Living
Detroit, Pittsburgh, St Louis, Lexington KY, Cleveland, Milwaukee

Undiscovered places that will soon become bigger than you like:
Bend OR, Bozeman MT, Spokane WA, Redding CA, Reno, NV, Albuquerque NM, Midland TX, Flagstaff AZ

I want to get lost and never be found... but it has to be BEAUTIFUL there:
Columbia Falls MT, Riverton WY, Watersmeet MI, Tomahawk WI, McCall ID, Asheville NC, Bangor ME, Anywhere in Alaska, Maui or Kauai

I'm a glutton for punishment:
Terre Haute IN, Oklahoma City, Tuscon, Riverside CA, Las Vegas, Billings MT, Tampa, Baltimore, Omaha, New Orleans, Portland OR
