What (US) location has most of these qualities ?

[suckerforparlays]

North Dakota is expensive?

lots of snow though right?

[Doug]

Snow and like 30 below.

No Black beauty is dumb enough to live there unless in the Air Force.

Florida: 95 degrees with 95% humidity 6-8 months of the year. Then you get to dodge hurricanes every other year. Orlando had two cross over them in one year. Then you've got the bugs: the mosquito is the state bird and they ride "palmetto bugs" (roaches) like they are ponies.

If you go a little inland in North County San Diego, it has gotten really cheap as a result of the Anti-Christ's recession. Escondido is OK. What's your budget? How much room do you need?

I'm very familiar with north county and Escondido and the whole county. Escondido can be like 15 degrees hotter than the other end of highway 78 ( O'side). I don't need much room at all, judging by what I see in Florida, I don't think I want to spend over 75k on a place ( to be honest). Have a condo in CT ( about 250k value). It's time to get away from my 1st,last, and only wife. I either have to get a divorce or kill myself to do that. Assuming I can get out alive with something like 125k and my old Ford truck, I don't want to spend it all on housing. I don't want a condo/ trailer....**** that, has to be a house.

I want somewhere new to me, and SD area is going backwards for me, same for LV, or Colo Springs. Northern Calif would be a change, but I think I want somewhere along the coastline from NC to Texas, but now the gulf coast is iffy with the oil.

Dougie, if you only have $75K to spend, you need to look around in Barstow for a trailer. We could fit you into a double-wide these days, I'm fairly sure.

Good luck with your new Florida pony.

[QuantumLeap]

HAHAH, LMFAO! I lived there and I was counting down the days to get out... that place is the epitome of a run down beach town.

You'd have to go to a place like Monaco to find a place like that, although it's nearly impossible to get citizenship.

Dubai is a good one too, good climate, strong economy, very multicultural, English is one of the main languages and no ghettos... no alcohol though

Dubai has the highest heat index in the world during the summer months. It's right on the Persian Gulf.



You can get alcohol at the hotels. If you make friends with a local you can buy liquor cheap.

[QuantumLeap]

North County San Diego beats the sh*t out of all those places...or South Riverside -> Temecula

South Riverside and Temecula have too many of the people Doug doesn't want as neighbors.

Yeah I know, I'm one of them...

If you really want information about anything, my suggestion would be to start the thread with you almost fukked your aunt. -just sayin'

I'm talking to buy outright, and I don't want to live halfway to Vegas....Shit 75k buys a house in Vegas these days.

Doug doing pretty good with this one, 85+ posts so far...

I saw a sign where new houses were starting at $76/sq ft in LV. My Realtor buddy says we haven't seen the bottom yet either.

[magic8ball]

On a serious note, I fully intend to retire in Panama. It is most fabulous. cheap, women, beautiful, women, cheap, and the country aint bad neither.

[QuantumLeap]

Yeah I know, I'm one of them...

I used to work with a guy like you from Temecula when I worked for a few months in San Diego. He said the commute was a bitch. I can't imagine driving from Temecula to SD every day on the 15.

Decent guy though. I still keep in contact with him. His name is Curtis.

You misunderstand, I'm part "Nigerian"

I live deep in the bowels of San Diego, in a house that was once worth $2M, but now $800K...

...to make up the dif, I run drugs, haul illegals, and rob banks...

...they even had me on TV and in the papers a few times.

I can't imagine that any more new houses are being built in LV at this time. Does "new" perhaps mean built after 2005, perhaps ?

I see Vegas becoming a haven for retirees from OC....sell the old homestead in Santa Barbara for a million, downsize into a nice Vegas condo for 100k type of thing. Should work well for NY types, etc. Maybe not much for jobs but pretty decent place if you don't need one. It can't go too much lower for this reason, IMO.

They are building new houses in LV, right now, we drove past several developments when I was out there a few weeks ago. They are building them here in SD too. There are 7 new developments along the 56 (Ted Williams).

My friend Curtis who lives in Temecula is full "Nigerian".

I hope to work in SD again some day. I used to hang out in Del Mar and Solano Beach. Tijuana was just 1/2 hour away. Great times.

If I had all the money I needed I would live there.

[yisman]

The intent here is a place I could realistically move to. English speaking is important, so kind of leaves US.

Dude no way. Australia, England, Canada, and a few others. Also some countries where English is not the main language use it a lot.

I want to try living in Hawai'i.

[Emily_Haines]

Sorry there is no such place. You want to avoid the rift raft you have to go north. When I was in the Yukon Territories I did not see any minorities.

[smitch124]

San Luis Obispo, CA

[2daBank]

It depends on where you live in Georgia. The islands off south GA are a bit more expensive.

Lexington, SC? The meth capital of the state?

sounds promising

I don't consider England to be much of an option. Very expensive ( I've heard) and Shitty weather. I wouldn't leave New England for Old England. Canada is too cold or too expensive in BC ( the warmest area). I don't know enough about Australia.

Places like Costa Rica and Panama seem kind of dangerous for a Gringo.

Hawaii is great but super expensive.

[yisman]

US, Canada, and Australia are pretty much the only three places I'd want to live.

Austin, Texas and the area between Austin and San Antonio. There's a college in every town.

Austin is nice, but it's quickly becoming overcrowded. Plus, it's like San Francisco minus the gays, nothing but tree huggers in charge. San Antonio is nice though. I think the key is maybe living in the areas around those places though. My sister used to live in Cedar Park, just outside of Austin and it was nice.

[1tarheelfan]

arizona maybe, dont know what the cost of living is there though. carolinas and georgia too many blacks.

i live in north carolina and i can tell you we have alot of blacks in certain parts of the state,and south carolina has ten times as much.people are losing homes here and the jobs are drying up. my dad uset to make a decent wage in the 70s and 80s working in blue jean plants,and those same plants have been closed for 20 years.
