[quote=Anonymous]I haven’t done it yet but I am this summer.  I’m decided against moving to my hometown for various reasons, the most important being that I would have to rely on my parents for childcare (youngest is in daycare still) and I don’t want to burden them.  Smaller but still relevant reasons were the lack of diversity (kids are mixed race although they pass as white especially among white people) and lack of career options if I want to leave my current job which is fully remote.  I instead chose a small city with lower cost of living that I know I like and that offers some unique opportunities for my family.  It will be hard and scary (for me and the kids) to have to make new friends and not have any real support network in place but it will be an adventure.  I’m hoping it will be a good fit, but we’re also renting at first so my comfort is that if we don’t like it we can always move again.

Anyway, I don’t gave any experience/advice for you, but I just wanted to let you know you’re not alone for seriously considering it.[/quote]
