>>2580950There is a direct correlation between how good living is for middle class and how Conservative it is.
>>2580970It's already against the rules, it's in the sticky. That post is off topic.
>>2580970NOOOO! YOU CAN'T SAY THINGS I DON'T LIKE!!! BAN THEM!!!This site is turning into Reddit.
>buy a home in the US>cheapLmao
>>2580950Philadelphia has everything barcade anons want and its cheaper to buy a house than rent
>>2580950>that listHoly shit fuck no never
>>2581164That list is my literal worst nightmare. Fucking Birmingham Alabama, St Louis, Baton Rouge. That's a hard pass from me. You can get a 3 acre lot in California up near Yosemite for 50K. Buy a prefabricated cabin for like 40K and drop it on the property. You could dig a well, bury a septic tank and install some solar panels and you'd have a house 60 minutes from Yosemite for like $120K. It's fucking paradise up there. https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-search/Wawona_CA/type-land?view=map&pos=37.27918,-119.732527,37.237577,-119.667295,14&qdm=true
>>2581238>120kNot happening. You'd be in around 180k on a good day.
>>2581238>you can lice under spic communist rule for the low low price of-No thanks
>>2581255I've lived all over the US. If you're looking for a cozier place to live than the foothills of the Sierra mountains in California, you'll never find it. It's close to 60 degrees for most of the winter. The foothills have a real small town feel. Madera County actually votes conservative, as do the surrounding counties in the foothills. There are almost no blacks and the crime is lower than the national average. The reason everyone doesn't move there is because there are no jobs and not a lot of housing. But there is a fuck ton of empty cheap land.
That list is fucking grim lol. I don't think Detroit would be too bad, like the suburbs or maybe out towards Ann Arbor. Never been so all of this is secondhand knowledge.
>>2581309>cozy winter>no snowlollmao even
>>2581309>americans buy their house based on fucking politics of all thingsjesus fuck the brainrot is strong in your """country"""
>>2581369Why wouldn't they? Each state functions almost as differentely as European countries do. Wouldn't you factor in local politics and tax rates when choosing which European country you'd like to live in?
>>2581309The Sierra culture is so opposite from the coast; a Californian I met on the Amtrak described it as like a slice of Texas in California. >>2581366While dry spells can feel comfy in winter, wildfires become an increasing danger with the lack of rain. When the atmospheric rivers do strike, they can be severe and last for days. You have to be self-sufficient if you are living innawoods. I got stranded at a buddy's off-grid homestead up in the foothills near Angels Camp (2500 ft elevation) after a surprise storm dumped a foot of snow and blocked the primary road into our off-grid compound with a mudslide. This was in March 2020 just as all the COVID panic was kicking off. It was a helluva time to be stuck in the mountains, smoking weed, rubbing my poison oak blisters, and hearing the world go to shit over the satellite radio.
>>2581402>>2581255nah he's right, western sierras have daily pride parades and mandatory electric vehicle purchase, definitely don't move here(mirin what you got goin on but you are also correct about difficulties + pretty sure it's gotten harder to get a mortgage on a structure even since 2020 with insurers pulling out of the market)
>>2580950Wisconsin is still pretty cheap. You just have to be able to handle the cold and avoid the jogger infested areas.
>>2581569>green gay fudgepackers
I would say on that list Detroit and Rochester are the "least worst". Both have major universities, medical centers, and some recovering nightlife/culture. I will also shill for West Virginia because it's extremely cheap, especially if you have a remote job.
>>2581366You can go drive 30 minutes into the SIerras and it's a winter wonderland. You've obviously never been to the Sierras if you didn't know that. They can get like 15 feet of snow in a day.
>>2581584>The Chicago Bears
>>2580957oh yeah Vermont is so awful to live in. it's completely due to Germanic white%
>>2581640Germanic and Anglo whoops
>>2581357Ann Arbor is really nice due to the university Detroit might as well not exist
boomp
>>2581030Philadelphia is a shithole full of blacks and junkies, the houses are cheap cause no one in thier right mind would wanna live there permanently
>>2581369btfo>>2581374
>>2581374I would even argue they function more differently. In Europe the EU is trying to homogenize/harmonize everything. They come up with "directives" on all sorts of nonsense that apply to the whole EU and want the tax rates across the EU to be the same so people aren't tempted to go on cross-border shopping trips or move to avoid income taxes. In the US most of this stuff is left up to the states. Some states do not have state income tax at all. Some states do not have sales tax (like VAT) at all. Imagine if you could cut your taxes in half just by moving a couple hours drive or an hour flight away to a place that has the same culture (more or less) and climate and language.
