I'm often curious why more people aren’t moving to low cost of living areas. I don’t know if I’ve just been fortunate, but I’m a college drop out who honestly hasn’t tried very hard in my “career”, but I moved out to Cincinnati which has a low cost of living at 23 (8 hours from my family) and I’ve managed to do very well for myself with a modest paying job (20ish an hour). I have 40k saved up and plan to buy a house this year. I wonder if other people who have went or started on a similar route are doing well for themselves.

And if you are in a high cost of living area, would you ever consider moving somewhere significantly cheaper?

    Laughs in maine, where it’s expensive and there’s also no culture at all.

        lol I legitimately had no idea that show took place here. All I knew about it was "that's the boring show where the white lady is always typing on her typewriter." And that it inspired the name of one of the most annoying twitter accounts.

          You should absolutely watch an early episode or two to hear the dad from happy days do a Mainer accent, it's very funny. It's like he heard "bert and I" once and was like I got this
