    Seriously considering a move to Iowa. Mock me if you want. I'd prefer Idaho, but my wife's entire family is in IA and compromises have to be made. Good news is cheap real estate and awesome growing conditions for plants. I'm so tired of fighting nature trying to grow stuff up here. Bad news is heat and humidity. We'll see.

    Being from Iowa, yes, the humidity and heat can be a bear sometimes, but I miss every bit of living back there. The only problem for me is that I have an SBR and Iowa currently doesn't allow them. Perhaps in the not too distant future that will change, but we'll see. The real estate is reasonable and it is a lot simpler living outside the city.

    I would never mock your decision to leave a state that has left sanity behind in the dust. I would also add that if you do make that move I hope and wish you and your family prosperity and good fortune for sure. Good luck to you Sir, wherever your destination ends up being.

    Well thank you guys. Most people I know are like, "People move out of Iowa, not to it!". LOL Most of those folks are from there so I know how it goes.

    Sorry to derail OP

    Drove over this crosswalk today, while moving to Iowa. Suddenly found myself checking out the mailman. Seriously, it's a skid from a semi dual. Even has some even chop to it like ABS was working overtime. Perhaps he stopped in hurry to avoid a bigger problem. I used to drive that stretch in a large truck when I worked downtown. Plenty of crazy traffic and people.

    I'm curious about the age of people fleeing. Seems I know quite a few long time residents that are moving, or at least sniffing around. I know I'm looking around.

    I plan to move ASAP, but my job will be the determining factor on how soon it actually is, a year is best case scenario. I'm 34 and will have a few locations available, but AZ is probably my first choice.

    If I had a million dollars for a house, I'd buy one with a boat dock in the Florida Keys. Everyday I would wear flip flops and tees & shorts. Moor the Boston Whaler out the back door and scuba, fish, and hunt everyday. Every place else is insanity. WTF was I thinking moving here? Space Force?

    34. Looking to jet in 6-9 months. Will likely come back for vacations and to eat tag soup.
