[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ideal would be near a smaller city with easy access to parks, skiing, hiking, etc. Prefer cooler climates. Towns with good schools a bonus, especially those that emphasize outdoor education.[/quote] A few mentions for PDX, so thought I’d comment... We left DC for Portland, OR a few+ years ago. While it fits the bill for much of what you describe, it’s not all it’s cracked up to be. Racist AF. Restaurants are nowhere as good as DC’s. Housing market is inflated. Salaries are low. Income tax high. Schools suck, so competition for charters and private is high. Once the smoke clears from the wildfires (we evacuated to breath easy), we will resume prepping house for sale.[/quote]
