Default Re: Relocating for afordability etc..

You can always try moving to Wyoming. My wife and I were going to go abroad and teach English for a year (we both love to travel and are both bilingual). At the last minute our plans fell through. Without a clear backup plan (I was preparing to go to grad school, but missed the deadlines because of our plans to go abroad) I took a job here in Wyoming as a way to try something new. The cost of living is very very low where we live. There are more expensive parts of the state (Jackson being one of them). Even though the cost of living is low, there are tradeoffs. There is pleanty of outdoors to enjoy, but little access to big city amenities. It is definitely a different culture, but small town living is very quaint. It has been a different sort of adventure for us. We really feel like we have an impact for good in our community.
