[quote=Anonymous]What about lifestyle for your kid? One thing keeping us here instead of moving somewhere more rural is the opportunities our kids have in a city that aren’t available elsewhere - diversity of people, not having to drive everywhere, access to museums, art, culture. Our kids are still young but it is kind of amazing when my 4 year old says he wants to see dinosaur bones to be able to say, let’s go this weekend!

There’s also nothing like taking our kids out in nature and letting them run free outside for days. But if we lived there, that would not be their life. They’d be in the car or the bus 30 minutes to school each way, long drives to friends houses and activities.

Maybe since your DH grew up that way he’s okay with having your kid grow up that way, but it’s not a way of life I want for my kid. So we live in the city and vacation in nature and count the years until retirement (when likely we’ll still stay in the city for access to medical care. Did you read the thread on here about medical care in Maine in the off season? Kind of scary).[/quote]
