How did yall choose where you lived?

Im 16 and I have always loved the idea of 2 completely different living styles and don’t know how to choose, and I’m wondering if yall came across the thing. 1 part of me wants to live in a really remote place where it would be just me and my family, like a Montana have a nice Lake to go fishing and just take things slow. Another part wants to live right next to the beach. Live in a small town where you can just walk down the steps and you are at the beach and there are family owned restaurants all over. So how do I choose between these polar opposites?
