Can anybody tell me anything about Idaho? How the economy is? How hard it is to get a job there?
I was surfing job listings on Indeed and it looked kind of okay.
have you looked at Washington state?
Better tax laws, weed laws, weather, jobs, and well everything.

ID is great if you are looking for a place for strategic relocation. WA is full of taxes and liberals.
Boise is to Idaho what Austin is to Texas
OP here
I am mostly concerned about jobs. Some of these really beautiful scenic areas have shitty economies where it's like a fucking blessing to get a $12 an hour job.
I don't want to move to somewhere like that.

That's montana/Idaho for the most part. Also fierce competition for those shitty jobs. I've heard multiple stories of 100+ applicants for things like dishwasher jobs

Okay fuck that.
Idaho is cancelled. Staying in Chicago

Chicago is a great place to live if you don't have to commute into the city.
Housing prices are fair compared to similarly sized cities, and it's easy to avoid niggers if you know the area.
If you don't work in the public sector, budget concerns of Illinois don't outweigh the benefits of earning power and affordability of the Chicago area.
Honestly the only better place I can think of is Texas.

I live in the outter suburbs.
What I hate about Chicago is that there basically is no culture, unless you're downtown in the city. Then the culture is just...shitty.
Property taxes are freaking me out too. This house I might buy here has property taxes of $8,000.
>earning power and affordability of the chicago area
What do you mean exactly?

You can make Manhattan-tier money/build solid connections without the cost of living. It's still high, but it's a major city and a little more reasonable than New York.

There's plenty of culture in the city. I live in Chicago. It's 15 minutes from my door and a ride on the blue line to get to the loop.
Chicago is affordable and there are lots of jobs if you are talented in your field. I would love to move to a more rural area, but I'd never find good work in my field.
Op is that retard that was recently kidnapped and tortured by those feral niggers
>Living in Chicago
Wew

I live near the town that family lives actually. Hoping Trump "sends in the feds".

Interesting, this is what I've always thought about Chicago, but literally every person is telling me "CHICAGO IS COLLAPSING, HIGHEST RATE OF PEOPLE MOVING OUT IN THE COUNTRY, PENSIONS ARE GONE, WHITE FLIGHT ect. ect."
>>1758534
There's definitely culture. Not denying that.

only bad taxes in WA are 10% sales tax
0 income tax...
We believe in taxing poor people, not rich people.
