Top three: North Dakota South Dakota Tennessee This, ^^. The Dakotas are sparsely populated and spread out, affordable acreage, affordable home prices, hear a lot about hospitable locales. I could speak with experience about Tennessee, some of the friendliest people I've ever met, somewhat conservative values, attractive scenery and of course affordable prices. It's the wintertime that makes one want to shy away from retirement in, say, North Dakota and South Dakota as well. Shove that aside and these three states are great picks. A great many of the cold issues can be eliminated by building either an earth shelter or concrete dome home and employing basic food storage procedures that would eliminate food worries during the brunt of winter. |

Top three: North Dakota South Dakota Tennessee My wife seems to like Tennessee. Apparently houses are much more affordable there. Is that because people are poor there, or is it a good place to live? The Tennessee real estate market is depressed but bouncing back due to real viable changes in their recruitment of new businesses while New York has set up “tax free” zones in areas that were not taxable to begin with as their business enticement. However, New York will nix your tax-free status in a heartbeat if you do not hire as many people as projected and the areas open often means failure so where would you want to open a business. |

If you are looking for a place with low unemployment as a young working person then your needs differ from someone looking to retire. Further, you must take weather and geological conditions into account if the area is prone to tornadoes then an earth shelter or concrete dome will work. If the area is prone to floods, mudslides or hurricanes high ground without unstable mountains will be needed. On the other side if the area is arid is there enough water to sustain your needs now and in the future. Further, some areas are prone to sinkholes and others to radon gases what geographical features are in your area of interest. Take Tennessee some areas are prone to sinkholes while others are not and beckoning opinions is no answer to a question that requires much research. |
