I don't like living in the NY/NJ area, but traveled around and found that I can really only have the highest standard of living in places like the Northeast Coast and West Coast. Start wandering into the middle states and the wages plummet. I'm in I.T., so your experience may be different.

But if the cost of living goes down proportionally, what difference does it make?

I traveled to Nevada/Utah/Idaho/Montana/Eastern Oregon over the summer, found out everybody else did as well. The real estate agents and their banker buddies are waiting to do business with you, and contractors that are double and triple the prices compared to other areas are readily available, no way am I that desperate to overpay those prices when there is nothing but 7/11 type jobs as the major employer, ridicules.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 80935529


Fun fact Idaho and Montana don't have any seven/eleven stores so you could get in there and start one.

 Quoting: Raylie Ann


My point being was wages, I said nothing about actually going there, analogy much?

That said, recommend an area that wasn't $250k over priced in any of those states.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 80697404


I was being short and concise, create your job/ opportunity start a business.

I apologize I thought you had an interest in going there.

Something in this exchange indicates that you would not be too happy in this region, I'll just leave it there. thumbs

Arkansas. and keep your blue state ass out of here!! We like it just the way it is. Once we clear out the illegal aliens from the chicken plants and loot all the walmart corporate offices and their homes we are building a wall around our state and anyone wanting to live here will be fully vetted!! Anyone trying to cross the wall will be fully vented with

Cali, far South... land of Sun, fun, fit bodies, gimme-grants, mega churches, with a few demoncrats in charge. Rents are too high for shithole status, but the laws suck.

One of the scariest things I ever did was to skip the major highways and zag across Arkansas back to Tennessee through country back roads. I have never seen the level of blight and poverty I did on that drive, it was truly a dystopian nightmare. You could hear banjos playing through the trees, I was afraid to stop and get gas.

SO FOR THE RECORD, YOU ALL THINK THE US IS ONE BIG SHITHOLE

WHAT PATRIOTS AND PRIDE YOU ALL HAVE AS YOU CALL AMERICA A SHITHOLE
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 37171402


This country was amazing just 25 years ago.
The more liberal the "leadership" the more of a shithole your state is.

No one one "on GLP anyways" is likely to debate that.

The question is really - When are people going to realize the "government" is at war with its citizens?
 Quoting: Elevenbravo214


so you think your nation is a shithole

got it
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 37171402


SO LIKE WHEN TRUMP CALLED HAITI AND AFRICAN NATIONS SHITHOLE COUNTRIES

YOU ALL THINK AMERICA IS A SHITHOLE LIKE HAITI AND AFRICAN NATIONS

GOT IT

President Donald Trump referred to Haiti and African nations as "shithole countries" during a meeting with a bipartisan group of senators at the White House,

America has become a dystopian nightmare partly by most citizens' willingness to be divided and easily led by their fears of their perceived differences, which has lead to nothing but ignorance, hate, and fear of anyone or anything that doesn't immediately resemble what they know & value.

Stop living in fear, learn to see through the constant manipulation of your overlords.

Open your hearts, refuse to cooperate with the dark forces.

Love is the only reality.

Florida, but soon to be Georgia.

Moving from goos state to shithole cause it cheaper.

It was missouri before that.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 80335548


I've lived in a lot of places over the years due to my ex's job transfers. When we divorced I could choose anyplace in the country to move and hot-tailed it to North Georgia. Nice people, good job, awesome house that didn't put me in the poor house. I wake up to a beautiful mountain view every day. There are a whole lotta worse places.
 Quoting: GA Girl


Northern Georgia is gorgeous. I love the Appalachian mountains.
 Quoting: ElleMira


It is. We are also getting inundated from people from New England, Florida, and of course Atlanteans who are now afraid to live in the Leftist city they made Leftist. I don't mind people moving in, but I resent people screwing up their own areas and then fleeing here and trying to screw it up, too.

WI is a great producer state. Beef, toilet paper, sausages, cheese, beer, toilet paper, cranberries, field veggies.

Still has the only all polka radio station in the US.

Downfalls: Dem takeover of govt through a probable phony election, Milwaukee, Madison, Chicago. Yes, Chicago, we get a ton of people from Chicago looking for a better welfare state. Dem takeover of newspapers and all media. Gov Evers seeks to do better for his imported peeps.
 Quoting: Greyberry


I gotta look up this all polka radio station!
