I personally feel like the America that most people are actually looking for exist in the Dakotas more than it does in Wyoming.

No winters are bad wind is horrible and meth is every where here. I mean sioux falls hit a record with 14 homicides this year its a rough dangerous place. The hills are over run with tourists and cwd is killing all of our deer. Elk license are pretty much once in a lifetime. ;)

A friend of mine went to the Upper Peninsula from El Paso a few years ago. They bought a place for cheap and then Covid happened and turned that whole Northern Michigan, Uppers Peninsula and Northern Wisconsin thing into the same BS that Wyoming, Idaho and Montana became.

There really isn't anything left.

Alaska kicks ass, but you need a hell of a boat or an airplane license to enjoy the outdoors to the same extent as Wyoming, Idaho or Montana.

I don't know much about South Dakota, but NODAK was a paradise before the oil boom.

Also a winter weight blond behind every tree.

Moving to Wyoming is like wanting to date a gal with a temper - chit chat online for a year, spend every other weekend together, learn everything about her, listen to her favorite songs, even get her name tattooed on your neck, but until actually living with her when she’s not on best behavior, there’s no way to know if it’s the right flavor of crazy for you. Lol
This is accurate. I was a Wyoming visitor before I moved here. Bought a piece of property where me and my wife were possitive we wanted to spend the rest of our lives and raise our kids.

4 years later, we never built on that land. Have no intention on ever living there under any circumstances. Why? Because we rented a place right down the road and found out a bunch of factors that we would never have known without living there. It would be a miserable existence.

Wyoming is not what you think it is when you visit.

Care to disclose general area and why you originally were so certain and what the biggest of the "bunch of factors" that woukd keep you from ever living there were?

I'm kinda thinking Wyoming is the least populated state, by a lot, for some very good reasons.
I say this as a property owner in Wyoming, in a generally “not windy” area of the state which is rare.

It’s a great state to visit but living there full time would suck.
