You're already in North Carolina, just move up to the mountains.I’m looking for the best place to move my family...
Needs:
Trails (with rocks) for Jeeps, mountain bikes, and hiking.
Clean, clear lakes and rivers for swimming and kayaking.
Snow to snowboard/ski.
Enough sun and warmth but not humidity.
Trees.
Actual mountains.
...I’ve lived all over but haven’t found that forever place.
Maybe, I’m just a gypsy.
Its completely possible I interpreted his reply wrong.Maybe he was eye rolling because at least two of the four corners states are colossal shitholes. Also none them check the boxes OP was looking for.
+1 on Bozeman. Stayed there for 4 weeks once and I'd love to move there.Billings was the smelliest, most polluted city in MT because of the coal and gas refineries.
Bozeman and Missoula are fantastic.
So where are you in NC... I'm an hour to the west of Asheville and it great here, short on snow but you drive to it in your Jeep. BUT my base is FL for tax reasons. I would say TN eastern mountains as less taxes and TN is a nice friendly state.I’m looking for the best place to move my family...

Including taxes....North Georgia should have everything your looking for.
I live in Fairfield County. What negative perspective do you encounter daily that isn't a click-bait, politically motivated article? Like you, I've lived here most of my life, having only departed for 5 years to live in MA. For all the constant noise about "pensions are going to bankrupt the state!" and "I'm moving out if they approve tolls!" tell me what's really impacting your day-to-day? I'm just as happy living here as I was 30 years ago. For all the praise our neighbors in MA seem to get (they legalized pot, after all), I'm here to tell you that living in MA felt just like living in CT... it was just colder and the people had a funny accent and were worse drivers.I'd be interested in hearing why you think CT is a good place to live. I ask as I encounter very negative perspective on a daily basis that tells me otherwise. What part of the state do you live in? Not saying your wrong by any means but rather would like someone to show me the right side of things here.
You said "Don't live here, it's horrible." How else was should I have interpreted that?Don't get me wrong
You're conflating two separate topics. CT is not a great state for off-roading, but PA and NY are close by and have awesome, legal off-road parks. If your original reply was something along the lines of, "CT has limited off-road opportunity, so don't move here if that is very important to you" I would have nodded my head and moved on. Saying that CT is horrible, however, is just inaccurate.Going for top down drives you can find some great roads. Beaches are decent but I do wish we could drive on with the Jeep.
That is pretty place... too cool only have a month of summer.If you are willing to move North of the border, Vancouver's got it all.
In fact, during certain months, you can enjoy both water sports and snow sports at the same time.
Lol Vancouver is not like rest of Canada. The mountains and ocean shields it from most of the cold fronts. It’s more like 4 month of summer.. 5 if you can wing it to October.That is pretty place... too cool only have a month of summer.
Well I'm a Florida boy and it is the other extreme to me.Lol Vancouver is not like rest of Canada. The mountains and ocean shields it from most of the cold fronts. It’s more like 4 month of summer.. 5 if you can wing it to October.
Fair enough.Well I'm a Florida boy and it is the other extreme to me.
I am often asked, “Where are you from?”In today’s world, political climate would weigh heavily on wherever I decided to move to. Not happening though, my family has been on the same spot since 1795. My roots are too deep here to pull up.
No Way!!!!CALIFORNIA!!!!!!! Best State in the nation.
