[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People keep referring to “rural” Utah or wherever, but they are not understanding that once you live in an in-demand state, there is no requirement that you live in the middle of nowhere. I know people in Park City UT, Whitefish MT, Portland ME, etc.  These are all really nice smaller cities with great restaurants, shopping, arts and good schools. These families are not suffering economically or artistically and yes, their kids will get a place at top schools before ours do. [/quote]

Whitefish Montana?  Have you spent time there?  I'd call it a town.  The restaurants are fine. You can get a fresh cooked meal for $12 or less.
Loula's is pretty good for breakfast or pie.  Shopping?  In my world the shopping went down hill when the Ace Hardware moved out of the center of the town.  You can shop at chain stores in Kalispell.  A lot of billionaires support the arts so they are in line with what you would get in an upper class small town.  The schools are good in a white person kind of way with a sprinkling of native americans.

The biggest suffering in Whitefish is that too many Californians are moving into the town and local Montanans are finding it tough to afford to live there.[/quote]
