Give me your top 3 American places to live, where taxes are fair and liberties flow freely in all directions--I'm looking to move soon
New Hampshire and apparently Maine I've heard
Though it’s losing population on this map, West Virginia is nice if you’re okay with the rural towns and stuff. Montana is nice with the same drawbacks, and Tennessee has three major population areas with low income taxes, but high property taxes, but that’s alright since property out there is cheap snd big.
Virginia? Vermont also has a lot of freedom with guns and weed if that's your thing but there aren't many jobs.
Virginia?! The freedom part sounds nice but you're still in Virginia, lol
Vermont? Too cold, plus no jobs like you said
Guess I'm gonna have to make some sacrifices in order to have it all. Freedom isn't free, right? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
What's wrong with VA? Northern VA is one of the best places to live on the planet. High pay with low taxes, lower COL than NYC or SF but similar quality of life. Charlottesville is also really nice.
He just wanted to go, “welp guess there really is nowhere might as well live in the urban hell hole with high taxes and politicians that do nothing.”
No, I'd prefer to settle in a village where they're still bitter about losing the civil war lol
