If you could move anywhere?

[Blandry]

Before you buy, I would suggest you rent until you get the flavor of the area. You might find you can't stand the local politics and personalities.

Best advice yet.. work brought me to CO and while it's amazingly beautiful state I can't hardly stand the people and politics after just 3 years here. Next stop Laramie, WY.. I'm already looking at rentals there.

If I was moving from where I am now, I'd want to go to Alaska.

I lived in Portland for 5 years and would go back to the PNW in a heartbeat. It definitely wouldn’t be Portland, but somewhere east of the cascades. Best of luck to you and your family!

California is a pretty place. Great weather, all the outdoors you can think of.
Con:cost of living and the politics suck beyond belief.

More and more I want to be away from most people......me and the dog, he is a great listener.

This.

I can actually move and live anywhere and we keep talking about moving all over tarnation from Alaska to Florida and most places in between, but nothing has ever motivated me enough to leave Texas so here I stay put. We're heavily invested in coastal activities so that's probably the only thing keeping me from moving to the Western hunting states. So to answer your question honestly, I guess I'd say Texas. You mention sports, you won't get anything bigger than Texas high school football, it's huge here.

100% California.

Honest question: Do you have a career that will allow you to work from anywhere or are you going to need to be tied to larger population centers?

I just can't believe that someone from Ohio is moving and they're not going to South Carolina with the rest of the transplants.

It would be somewhere at least 2 hours from any population center, that is pretty enough, has access to basic things that I or the wife need, but where there is not an abundance of stupid people or criminals. Most places people have heard of, have already attracted hoards of people already, so the trick is to find a place under the radar, and then go wherever you want with that as your home base.

You can buy my 1960's ranch in denver metro for 800k so I can move somewhere else...

Im thinking more like Montrose, Gunnison, etc.

Gunnison is nice in the summer. Coldest place in the lower 48 in the winter. Not that unlike midwest cold though. (I'm originally from Chicago).

Look at Granby CO - lakes and streams for fishing, backside of RMNP, lots of National Forest for hunting and ski areas nearby along with snowmobile trails for winter fun. If you wander north a tad you can find hot springs too.

Iron Mountain Michigan is nice, plenty to do for outdoors activities. Very cold and lots of snow.

Grew up in ketchikan. High school football was literally played on a field of gravel.

That sounds like a character builder right there!

Don’t choose California, it’s awful here.
