The US is without a doubt #1 in personal liberty, but the culture is in decay, and the push from the establishment to take away constitutional rights is quite strong. Also, the IRS stays with you for life. Even if you move out of the US, you will still be paying them until you can get rid of your US citizenship, which is another process that costs money. So, there's a tradeoff no matter where you go, but yeah, the US outside of the west coast is not bad.
