Warm
Low cost of living.

Sadly, true. If you can accept three months of serious winter (Jan-March), Rochester, NY would be great. The suburb of Brighton, in particular, is very liberal with excellent public schools, and minimal pressure/drama. Housing prices are ridiculously low compared to the DC area (though higher property taxes eat some of that savings.)[/quote]

yea the weather is opposite of warm-- but this is my hometown and my partner and I frequently discuss moving there.  We could buy a house in cash for the price that our home has increased since 2020.  Quality of life is excellent-- everything is just easy and close.  [/quote]

You’ve intrigued me. [/quote]

I grew up there.  No, just no.  It is not as liberal as you think.  The reason Brighton is liberal is bc of the large Jewish population, otherwise, the area is really conservative, NRA and gun -toting, and super cold in the winter with lots of lake-effect snow.  I could say lots of positive things (real estate prices, good schools, the HOG, stable-ish economy) but the snow and the gun mentality are deal breakers for me ever moving back there.[/quote]

DP but I’d call it purple, which I concede is conservative relative to this area, ha.  Monroe county voted for Biden over Trump by quite a bit. Most of my family voted for Biden (and they’re spread out across the various burbs), a few are feverish NRA and trump supporters.  But your characterization of it being overwhelmingly conservative doesn’t really jive with the election results and on a personal level is different than my experience.  [/quote]
