Curious to see which state you would live in if you could work remote

North Carolina. Lived for a month there in a Summer when I was a teen, pretty nice place. Lovely scenery, the parks and trails were lovely to walk and I really love the air there, so much fresher then where I live (TX). I'd say the people are lovely, but I only met a handful and while they were nice, I can't say much for all of them there.

8/10 travel.

chris what sort of jeet retard made this map?

Vegas or Phoenix probably. If I made more money, Southern California.

Mountains and palm trees are a kino combination. I hate humidity. Also the west coast culture/lifestyle is appealing to me.

>>2776412
I've been considering NC a lot lately. It's one of the states I was approved to work from. Do you have any areas in particular you liked?

Either SoCal or Tampa Bay area

>>2776405 (OP)
I’ve lived in a range of states—MA, NY, NC, WI, and CA, and I’ve liked things about all of them, but CA is unironically my favorite among them. Haters should obviously feel free to continue hating.

I could also imagine living happily near where I grew up, in Western Massachusetts, but I really would have to bring well-paid remote work with me; it’s a region that’s either rural, college towns, or small, dead postindustrial cities. Not a lot of local economic activity.

Winters and a feeling of isolation from the rest of the country were too much for me in WI, and summers too sticky and sprawl/traffic too intense in NC. But North Carolina would be my third choice.

It's a tough problem to crack for sure.

I ended up just bailing over to Asia in 2022, but do sometimes wish I had done more recon in USA. I was pent up at the time and wanted to bang LBFMs though.

I would want somewhere with 2 factors, for starters:
1. Not an overly pumped market already e.g. coastal california.
2. A sense that the place has some level of importance in the world, so not sandpoint, Idaho.

I'm not sure where in the US offers a nice balance point with a nice early-enough entry to the market.

>>2776449
The thing about California is there's just so much variation.

Obviously there are huge swaths of the state that used to be nice but aren't anymore due to crime, mass immigration, etc. California was indisputably a much nicer place 20 years ago.

But some places like south OC, Marin, and north SD County are still paradise.

The problem is the price. Sure these areas were always expensive relative to the rest of the country, but the cost of living has gone truly insane in the past 10-15 years. Back in the 90s, if you had a decent white collar job, you could buy a house in Aliso Viejo or Huntington Beach no problem. Now you need to be pulling in $300k+ to even consider it.

And 10-20yr before that you could be blue collar and get into bay area real estate too

I also wanted to do some LFTRMS, a long with some SDRTS, its so important that you bring your DTS with you in order to have the best time. LFTRMS! Its the way to go!

Fucking nerd. how does it feel?

I work remote but a shitty 45k a year job. the only way to experience middle class lifestyle is leaving USA.

NC has blown up with domestic migrants in the past couple decades, particularly the Piedmont region. It's become a state full of asshole mutts living in endless suburban sprawl. The climate is mild and there are many good-paying jobs, but new home prices in the metros have basically doubled in the past five years. The blacks are more well-behaved and socially integrated than elsewhere in the country. Anti-racism and tolerance is universally prevalent across the political spectrum (the remoter mountain counties being an exception to all of this).

>>2776503
It’s undeniable that housing prices have been a major problem in most parts of California where anybody would want to live for a long time. They’re a major driver of some of the safety and quality-of-life gripes that people always freak out about (which have always been exaggerated and sensationalized by the media and online, in my experience as someone who lived near the epicenter of the problem for more than fifteen years, but they’re not just made up). Still, the climates, landscapes, opportunities, and amenities always outweighed the downsides for me. If you’ve got enough money, it can offer some of the best stuff in the world. If you’re broke, it can be a miserable struggle. It hasn’t been a place where it’s easy to work your way up from nothing and thrive since before anyone here was born.

>>2776661
I grew up in a middle-class Inland Empire suburb. Not Beverly Hills by any stretch, but the climate is mild and the landscape is beautiful.

When I was a kid, houses *were* affordable for an average middle-income family. There was a real sense of community, too. People knew their neighbors, people said 'hi' to each other when they passed on the sidewalks. Violent crime was unheard of. The schools were good. Not Orange County good, but decent. Old folks in town would sit at diners and talk about our high school football team. And this wasn't 70 years ago, it was the early 2000s.

That's all gone now. It's just a giant anonymous international airport, a grab bag of foreigners. Here a Venezuelan, there a Pakistani, the house at the end of the block has five young Chinese men. Did they just move in? Who knows. No one speaks English. No one cares, no one remembers. At CVS, everything is locked in acrylic cages. The schools are terrible. Everyone moved to Texas or Arizona years ago.

>>2776405 (OP)
I moved to Fargo ND and love it. My entire monthly costs of living is <800/mo for 500/500mbps internet+utilities+rent. It's basically safe as you can get in the USA without going full gated community or some ultra rural place. Enough jobs to fall back on if my tech job were to poof out of existence so not too worried for myself with manufacturing coming back growth looks promising. Pretty much anything I need I get, the air is fucking clean, and I can amtrak down to chicago or to seattle for cheap if I don't care about time.

Basically have 0 worries when I go overseas for half the year with my current gig that doesn't give a shit where I am at for work.

Worst part is the migrants are fucking slow as hell to be leaving because NDSU students are all faggots. Luckily the rest of the state is finally pushing them out.

>>2776769
That perfectly describes life where I live in Melbourne Australia. Community gone, everyone I went to school with has moved away, feels like 99% of people in my suburb are foreigners who moved here in the past decade. Neighbours don't talk to each other.

Same states id work in if I couldnt work from home, Colorado, Utah, Washington California or Florida

>>2777171
Downtown Fargo is comfy. They have a market on summer weekends with vendors and locals from the area performing. I would sell my soul for the violin girl from last October. I didn’t even get her name.

What does /trv/ think of living on a lake? There is a $300k lakehouse near me I really want (southern state). My job is remote/travel and it’s 40 minutes from an airport so that works. My concern is possible isolation - it’s a small town where I’m sure there aren’t a ton of young people, so dating pool would be limited.

>>2776769
I travel to Ontario for work frequently. Seems awful. Overcrowded, stoplights almost every intersection so going a mile takes 7 minutes, smog obscuring the mountains, almost all foreign people.

>>2781232
Hawaii is beautiful but it's too expensive

I used to fantasize about moving, but eventually I realized when I'm not traveling I'm almost always within a mile of my house. Any state can provide a nice house in a cozy neighborhood, so best to live in the one where I have the most friends and family.

If I didn't have friends or family and loved to constantly be doing shit, I'd probably pick Colorado because I love the geography and there's some decent towns and people too. Wisconsin struck me as remarkably friendly when I was there. And NYC is fun but you'd have to be a party animal for the pros to outweigh the cons.

Winston Salem is a dilapidated Rust Belt anachronism in an otherwise new and prospering region of North Carolina. It's a mystery meat soup that is minority White (using the most generous possible definition of White). The pinnacle parks to the north make great hikes.

Sadly, you're right. I haven't lived in NC since 2016, and things have changed since then. Raleigh used to be a low-crime city with a well-integrated black population, but now it's Thug Life central with a skyrocketing homicide rate.

How many roommates?

>>2787391
None. Heating and hot water is paid, I only pay like 15-20 bucks a month for trash+utilities. Internet+electricity, renters insurance is like 10/mo.

There are even cheaper places downtown or studios I could move into. Min job offers around here start at like 18/hr too. Winters suck a bit but get a good coat+pants and it's not a big deal. Hell I don't even own a car since the bus system is good here. If everything shit the bed I could work some bullshit job for 20/hr at a grocery store or just go work for the big medical+finincial people here, or at worst the Microsoft campus.

>>2787394
*trash+misc BS they charge for like admin fee/yard care/etc.

I think my end of month is like 760ish. I know downtown there are new apartments starting at 900 overlooking the river. Cost of living is cheap as hell because as >>2784937 they flee the first chance they get so people can't collect section 8 driving up rent costs from da gubment. Most go across the river if they are staying close into MN where the gibs are better and weed is legal.

>>2787394
Damn I paid $1600 (now $1800) in the Chicago suburbs for one like that.

>>2787398
Yeah I paid around that 1650 3 years ago before I moved. My average monthly cost of living was ~2-2.2k depending on the time of year. Was worried about winters and no car but every grocery store here will basically deliver free if you buy in bulk like 125 dollars' worth of shit or pay 25for under. December->Feb I just bulk order food and eat at home or uber if needed.

As stated the migrant problem was a bit worse but ICE is blowing through this place pretty fast, most migrant families the second they pick up 'good enough' English dip out to MN or Chicago. Biggest issue right now is the housing market is fucky, but honestly... 200k for a 3br 2 story house isn't THAT terrible.

Not sure yet, but Texas has RV spots like every 20 miles from Brownsville to Dallas. It's nice if you don't mind living next to drifters and crackheads, as there is quite thoroughly nothing around besides the next major town. Most are passthroughs of course, which means you'd best not stay long unless you want the paranoid faggot speed-ticketing cops to check your ass every quarter-mile.

Plan on driving up to Vermont between the next 3 days. I anticipate this will result in much faggotry with RV spots who cannot stand daily-renters and will likely insist that I purchase a monthly lease per-lot.

Time will tell.

Plenty of boring, cheap, middle of nowhere places out there. Throw a dart at a map.

$300k will get you a $1.35m house comfortably. If you stretch you could go up to $1.5m.

Median SFH in HB is $1.45. $1.35 in Aliso and Mission Viejo. So you can definitely own a nice detached house in south OC on $300k/yr.

But working your ass off for $300k just to be solidly middle class isn't what most people want. Easier to move to a nice Phoenix suburb and live an upper-middle/borderline upper-class lifestyle. Plenty left over for vacations and private school and college funds and country club memberships.

Maybe 10 years ago. Even you're not remote and and your company has regional pay bands (most got rid of them in the last five years), the difference doesn't even come close to covering the actual CoL delta.

Depends on the industry. Some jobs are just way easier to find in HCOL places, not to mention pay and career advancement opportunities. If you're a SWE, you could get paid literally double in the Bay vs midwest, and you're going to have much easier time networking and progressing in your career.

On the other hand, for a lot of professions the $ to col ratio is better in cheap areas. But, for the most part, people still move to cities because that's where the jobs are.

The place is either wealthy people I don't fit in with. Or complete white trash who I don't fit in with. There are zero people in the middle.

Move to a city.
Cities are where you want to be from early 20's until you're ready to settle with a family. It'll be better for your career, your social life, your mental health, your overall experience in life. When you do it, you will be relieved that you did.
Flyover country is for raising kids and being white trash. There's a reason "townie" is an insult, and it refers to people in flyover country or suburbs who never left their hometown, not people in cities.
For which city, if you have no preference, I'd say whichever one's easiest access to you that's ideally over 1M population, but definitely over 400k. Under 400k will be less of a city experience and more of a big town.

NTA, but some (most?) young people of "ambition" or "agency" sub/unconsiously want to feel that where they are living matters in the grand scheme of things. JayZ's Empire State of Mind captures this feeling for NYC, and despite that famous meme about the "hustle and bustle" of the city, living in a thriving metropolis does seem to stave of existential feelings, even though there are trade-offs in terms of space, dirt, and poverty.

That's exactly what Salt Lake City is. It's no different than Boulder, CO (Which is the most fit city in the country by the way) or Colorado Springs (both places have way bigger mountains right on your doorstep than SLC). Even better Manitou Springs if you can afford it. In fact there's multiple cities right around Colorado Springs that are way better for being in the mountains, but are expensive. If he's okay with smaller scale cities there are countless other ones in Colorado that have you right in the mountains practically, but they also are typically resort cities and cost al ot.

TV is real life

If I could work remote, and work from anywhere, I would leave the States. Simple as.

>I'd say whichever one's easiest access to you that's ideally over 1M population, but definitely over 400k. Under 400k will be less of a city experience and more of a big town.
I lived in 4 european countries and two US states. Traveled all over both continents too.
Still can't find a better place to live than Boulder, CO despite it having "only" 100K pop.

Mormonism being a cult is well documented. They have extremely weird rules and traditions and their women are just as big of hoes as any other.

>Fren, I'm going to tell you right now that nothing will remove the yellow fever from you faster than going to Seattle (and SF too I guess) and seeing the asian "talent" there - the most dysgenic examples of humanity lurk the streets there.
where should a white man go for domestic yellow fever?
Challenge mode: recommend somewhere not on the west coast

To where? I did this, but actually identifying a place that's going to let you live there long term without a local job, local wife, etc while working a remote USA gig/biz is tough for most

Either Alaska or Colorado. Been living in Alaska for the last few months for seasonal work and besides the groceries aspect, pretty much everything I liked about rural Texas except not scorching hot and surprisingly tame winters if you're in the inside passage. even the smaller towns have enough hiking and kayaking activities to do if you get bored. Expensive to buy property, but tax laws make it a lot easier to hold. Colorado is somewhat similar on the activities part. Only difference is plenty of Californian women move there so easy to find a hottie. Alaska women? Either seasonal workers wanting to be whores, or native women wanting to leave the state.
