I wouldn't want to start out around here....fixer uppers (windows/doors/kitchen/bath/floors/electric/etc) are going for over 300....

Then the taxes.....mine are 7,300 and we have a very modest spread....

Between my wife and I we have what would be considered a nice income most places....here a large part of it gets absorbed just on living expenses....

Otherwise I do like most of it....great freshwater fishing, close enough to the salt for a day trip, woods to hike or 4wl in....some of the people I could live with-out....but the Southern folk still do have a chip on their shoulder, I've seen it myself and wonder if the kids catch crap in school because of it.....

I buy the 'Grass is always greener' statement for the most part....if/when we move we're going with my wifes company...this way the income stays and the expenses go down.....

I hear the TX bass fishing is pretty good.....
