If you could move tomorrow (okay maybe next month) what state would you move to and why?
Let's assume that your immediate family is on board with a move (spouse, kids, etc) and you don't feel the need to stick around for extended family - parents, siblings, in laws, etc.
What state is on the top of your list and why?
I would consider:
individual freedom (including gun ownership)
weather - warmer but lacking major hurricanes and tornadoes and earthquakes
job opportunities in my husbands profession (I am rather flexible)
overall tax burden
cost of living (thankfully living in New England my whole life cost of living is generally cheaper every where else)
My list leads me to Tennessee, Utah, Texas, Nevada, Arizona, Oklahoma with job opportunities being the deciding factor.
What is your wish list?
