[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly I am thinking about moving to a low COL area. I work remote so that shouldn’t be an issue. I am burnt out with this situation.[/quote]

Would be a wise choice, OP. Any low COL where you might have family or social support? [/quote]

That would be in Europe. So I am thinking either a [b]smaller town with good public schools around Boston[/b], or Europe. Not sure I can do my job from Europe. I might have to find a new one (which would be bad because I like my job).[/quote]

Definitely not lower COL.

I'm very sorry, OP.[/quote]

[/quote]

OP. Definitely cheaper than where I live now. Not Brookline or the likes, more like 40-60 minutes out. As I said, I am fully remote, so wouldn’t have to commute into Boston.[/quote]

You are going to have sticker shock.[/quote]

Sounds like OP has already scoped out home prices in that area- have you?  I think the "further out" options from Boston are a lot better than around here, especially if no one has to commute*.  The towns are more established with more interesting housing stock than all the manufactured sprawl in this area.

*I'm guessing OP assumes that her DH will not get a another job[/quote]

Very familiar with those prices, and OP will have sticker shock. [/quote]

+1.  My friend recently bought a 3BR in Beverly for around $600k, which is like 45 min from city- not cheap!  OP if you want to go low COL, you need to go truly low COL- like Syracuse or something.  You can find some good school districts in upstate NY too.[/quote]

+2.  But I think she’ll need to be somewhere less desirable than Syracuse.  Like rural Midwest.[/quote]
