[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have to downsize due to a divorce and am looking to move. I only have one gifted athlete and student soon to enter high school. We love the area but it's too expensive. Where can we move where I can afford to outright buy my house and still find decent jobs and schools and activities nearby? My friend lives in upstate NY and tells me to head up there where there are many houses for $200k. The schools there are hit or miss and the job market is a little low and it's cold. What other areas of the country can I look at?[/quote]

Swim/tennis communities are popular in the South. Check out the Atlanta region and Charlotte, NC area. You probably need to consider a townhouse as single family homes in a swim/tennis neighborhood are probably above your budget of $300,000.

Atlanta is the most active tennis community in the US.[/quote]

Thanks. Is there a part of North Carolina or Georgia with less bugs and humidity? These are the only downsides I see.[/quote]

The North Georgia Mountains are cooler so humidity is comfortable.

A couple of weeks ago, national news reported that Gainesville, Georgia had the hottest housing market in the nation. (Fooled me as I thought that was Phoenix, Arizona.)

As a state, Kentucky has the weakest housing market in the country. $300,000 should go far in Kentucky.[/quote]
but the schools...[/quote]

PP here.. agree.. I posted as much up thread.. something's gotta give.

For us, education is like #1 or #2 on the list, and diversity is just as important (we are a mixed race couple) so that limits our choices.[/quote]
