What do you like about where you live?

I live in the town I grew up in. I like it and the cost of living is affordable.
We have to travel to bigger centres occasionally but grew up doing that.
Both kids are in the city 6 hours away and we might find a smaller town nearer to them as we get closer to retirement.

I think Arizona would be good.m; my wife loves off-road Jeeping and AZ fits that bill well.

Before heading to AZ, spend a bit of time there during the summer.

The things I like about Arkansas:

• Affordable
• Nice weather with four seasons. I prefer heat over cold so not much snow.
• Friendly people but not over-populated
• Good variety of hunting & terrain. Woods, delta land & hills.
• The ability to go from the city to the woods quickly
• I grew up in the swamps of Louisiana. I like the south.

Arkansas cons:

• It's landlocked. It's too far from the sea.
• I do enjoy the big mountains and expansive vistas of America's west.

My daughter is currently living on my sailboat on the Chesapeake Bay right now. When I retire in a couple of years, I'll be relocating to the coast for the next phase of my life.

Wandering for hours in the Ouachita Mountains with my pneumatic. I never saw another person.

In the pine woods near the Arkansas River. I shot a deer with my Ruger No. 1A in 303 British a few minutes after I snapped this photo.

I love the US to make money, but looking into relocating soon to my home country, Spain.
First, family is there and that’s not replaceable.
Second, cost of living is way lower than Miami, which is where I live now.
Third, life queality is higher (good food, cheap private health insurance, great domestic and international communications, etc). Plus flight connections to Africa are much better .
Fourth, hunting is great plus you can hunt all year around and permits can be dirt cheap.
Fifth, land is among the lowest prices worldwide. You can get 200-300 acres within 2 hours or a larger city for under $200k.
Sixth, great friendly people.

Bad thing is the new trend of woke people taking over the country, including politicians. Taxes are stupidly high, so forget about working because half of it goes straight to taxes.

Spain was sounding like the go ahead nail you mentioned unreasonably high tax.
I still think it would be good that try the food and visit for a different cultural experience.
