What is the best place for allergy sufferers to live in the United States and...

[Rockaholic]

...around the world? Many years ago, it might have been the American Southwest, although I heard that people moved there and planted things that people are allergic to, so now there supposedly is no escape. I understand that people have different allergies, but there are some things,( ragweed, for example, ) that are common allergens. For example, peanuts could be a common food allergy. With this in mind, what places in the U.S. and the world might be generally a good location for a person who has a lot of allergies. Grasses/weeds and many types of trees bother my allergies. I'm on allergy shots, which my insurance refuses to cover, and have to take tons of expensive asthma and allergy medication. My hope is that somewhere might be less miserable than where I live currently. Any ideas? Do you have an allergy success story. Please share!

DO NOT come to the San Francisco Bay Area...particularly Contra Costa County...which has the worst pollen counts in the country!!! People who have never experienced any grass/weed/tree allergies in their lives start sneezing the minute they get here...the weather is too nice and everything grows year-round...
