Best of luck to you, friend. I’ve done the same with my wife but our minds are made up, we’re packing up next week. Have loved this town, had a lot of fun and made plenty of friends here, but they’ve unfortunately made it clear those with our mindsets are no longer welcome.
If you’re looking for recommendations, should check out Michigan. It’s more of a purple state, but it is one of the most underrated states in the country in terms of beauty, is nearby Illinois, and has low cost of living. I also don’t ever see a scenario like what Witchmer pulled the last two years happening again. The west side of the state is stunning with its beaches and is a super quick drive to Chicagoland if you have family here. Detroit has also done a 180 from where it was a decade ago, there’s a lot of hope for that city. Something to consider!
Thanks friend. I'm so happy for you and your wife. God speed! I like MI; we might buy a rental in South Haven area so we have an excuse to visit; lots of friends in MI. I like New-Buf too but they are overrun with Chi-town libtards My wife grew up in Chicago (Greek), so our final move will be to warmer climates; AZ, FL or TN. TN still gives me the the Midwest crossover, lol, but I have a lot of family that moved to AZ and FL the past ten years. We'll see. One thing is for sure; we're out of Chicago!!!
