Dirtyhip Posted August 24, 2017 Share #1 Posted August 24, 2017 Web and cell service sucks. Frequent road closures and power outages cause some mayhem. Forest fires are a real concern here. People are very poor here. It is like third world for some of these mountain families. The trails are epic. The terrain is steep and fun. The trails near our possible new neighborhood are great. Food is expensive. The locals compare it to living on an island. Avocado was 4 bucks each. My posting habits are gonna drastically change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Further Posted August 24, 2017 Share #7 Posted August 24, 2017 There is some beautiful landscape near here that is meth / heroin central. And high poverty very often means high crime. Think about this move. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petitepedal ★ Posted August 24, 2017 Share #8 Posted August 24, 2017 Well... explore your options..you guys are young yet Weather/climate changes are making changes across the country...look at clean air options..look at allergies...look at cost of living... Jobs in Colorado didn't pay enough when I was there...I liked the mtns...and seasonal changes...Texas...was too hot and no seasonal changes....Florida was humid and hot...and well....yeah not my place. I have returned to MN for the change of seasons and hey we have a great biking culture...

On the brighter side, you'll have plenty of time to sit on the porch and learn to play the banjo to entertain the tourists... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrapr ★ Posted August 25, 2017 Share #14 Posted August 25, 2017 Are you moving out of State? What was that place Shelter Nook? You'll buy a house in Cali then we will hate you when you sell it & move back here to Oregon. Don't Californicate Oregon! I don't want to hate you 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
