I would say either Gondolin or Khazad-Dum.
I can't fathom how beautiful it must have been to come close to Valinor in beauty. And it's strength of arms as it's pinnacle is staggering as well. Being a hidden city it could have lasted much longer were it not for Maeglin the accursed. Can you imagine being Tuor and entering those beautifully wrought gates and beholding the majesty and grandeur of it all?
Khazad-dum would be a wonderful place to live if you don't mind being enclosed. Plenty of work to do and probably plenty of mirth, after their fashion. Also a wonderfully strong fortress. Plus I think the dwarves deserve a bit of recognition in this as well.
