5) This is not a support community.

It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions. If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email [email protected]. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.

Where is a good place to move to? (lemmy.world)

I currently live in California, but it's literally impossible to afford to buy a house.

Where are some good places to move to? I was thinking about Washington State, but I'm not sure I could handle the snow.

Tennessee still has some affordable housing in rural areas. Very little snow as well.

Are you prepared for no-flouride water, septic tanks, an awful education system, a sub-tropical climate that seems to get less "sub" every year, more types of pollen than you've ever dreamed of, more guns than people, and rampant meth/opioid abuse?

Or consider Rural PA, all the same problems, but with the climate of early 2000s Tennessee!

Don't forget the discrimination and frequent unreported assaults on queer folks and people of color!

Tennessee: The volunteer (to give up any reasonable expectation at a decent quality of life) state!
