If you had to live in a fictional magical world, but you wouldn't be magical, what world would you pick? (lemm.ee)

In the Harry Potter universe non magical people live blissfully unaware of magical people and are pretty much left to our own affairs with little to no intervention or malicious actions by the magical, the magical even setup an entire ministry dedicated to maintaining that status quo. It's probably the most boring and unimaginative choice but it sounds like the one in which I could live with the greatest ease and safety.

Hard disagree. Muggles are kept shrouded in ignorance, but they're still fairly routinely terrorized by dark wizards and magical beasts. The Ministry makes an effort, but fails when the going gets tough.

Except for the early 90's in the UK. That wasn't so great.
