I haven't started at 1st level since around 1998. Ravenloft 2E.
2nd level, IMO, is the best level to start at. The PCs are still very weak, they can have somewhat of a backstory without suspending too much belief, and you can start multiclassed. 3rd level works as well, but I probably prefer 2nd.
Of course, certain campaigns are going to break from this. I have no qualms about starting a campaign higher.
