It largely depends on what you're after, economically, and personally.
Generally speaking, places with a lot of jobs and a lot of "night life" aren't "beautiful" places in terms of scenery.
If you care about scenery, you can't go wrong with Maine, Washington, Oregon or (far) Northern California.
Eastern Washington state is one of the most beautiful places I've ever been to.
If you're willing to deal with a bit of a climate change from the UK, you might also want to look into Taos/ Santa Fe New Mexico. Awesome area, but you might not like the weather, as it is really dry and warmer than you're used to (but at least it isn't Tucson!)
