[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Look, I'm one of the rare-ish types that LOVES living in DC. I like politics, I like that people are passionate about their work here, I don't feel like I need huge green spaces nor the dense urban-ness of NYC. But even I would never choose to live here if I could live anywhere in the country and work were not a factor! Why would you choose someplace with such a high cost of living when you don't need the amenities it provides? If you're wealthy enough to retire while you have kids and even consider living here, you're wealthy enough to live somewhere beautiful and scenic regularly and shell out for flights and such regularly to see the culture that cities across the US have to offer. If I were in your shoes, I'd live in coastal California in less expensive areas than SF/LA, or maybe Boulder or Park City UT if I felt more partial to mountains, and then travel widely (post pandemic).[/quote] OP. Thank you. This is very helpful.[/quote]
