I take it you don't live in Portland.
We don't need more rich california faggots coming up here and buying all the property and turning the state into more of a cuck shed than it already is.
>>67984294
Yes you do. The more Californians that move there mean a less cucked Texas.
>>67983180

Isn't Austin the only city like that over there? The rest of the state's large enough to offset them.
Here Portland's the only major city and their influence is spreading throughout the entire state. Oregon used to be mostly conservative and voted red until 20 or so years ago.

Austin and Dallas. I technically live in a suburb of Austin but a few years ago it was rural. Then Texas survived the recession and the 6,000 acre ranch literally up the street that I would hunt on got developed.
Now I have to drive around 20 miles to hunt and train my hunting doge, and a property 3 miles up the road got purchased by a developer.
The cancer is growing.

See, it's so cheap because only cucks want to live in Portland. Portland is a very cool city, but it's a city you just go and visit. Because it's fucking disgusting to live in.
Source: I live 30 minutes outside of Portland.
Fortunately, you picked a location on the west side of the river. That is good. But you're still in cuck territory, so you'll get taxed out of the ass to pay for roads that never get fixed, to house homeless people you don't give a shit about, and to pay for LGBTWTFIDKBBQ and Minority Welfare Rights, or some shit. I don't know, it's fucking retarded.
What you should do, is pull that up on google maps, and then drive five minutes down the road to the west to Beaverton, which is a glorious white suburbia location. Public transit doesn't get out there quite as often, so negroes, mehicans, and poor people don't leave their containment zone.
>>67983180

Mexico is cheap as fuck. Live in the best zone of the city, golf club, 5 bedrooms, huge house. Around 600,000 usd
>>67987196
There's no way your apartment is that cheap unless you're under rent control.
Oh yeah, think about how much money you will spend on furniture...
My gf and I were looking at a 4,000 square foot place to buy. 6 bedrooms, 3 or 4 bathrooms over 2 floors.
She never grasped how much furntiure we would need.
That's a lot of fucking furniture unless you want a $400,000 crackhouse.

They are. If you find a decent contractor you can basically design your house from the bottom up. I've lived in hundred year old houses and they're shit, everything creaks, the floorboard feel hollow, the house isn't designed for modern day appliances and utilities....
Find a state where land is cheap and cost of living is low. Buy a lot 15-30 minutes outside of a major city so you're not completely cut off from the Internet or civilization, build your dream home.

I want to add onto this. Houses are not mass produced like automobiles where the quality is shit compared to what they once were. You get what you pay for and they can vary heavily. Your best bet is building it yourself.

Between these two extremes of democratic communities stands an innumerable multitude of men almost alike, who, without being exactly either rich or poor, possess sufficient property to desire the maintenance of order, yet not enough to excite envy. Such men are the natural enemies of violent commotions; their lack of agitation keeps all beneath them and above them still and secures the balance of the fabric of society.
Not, indeed, that even these men are contented with what they have got or that they feel a natural abhorrence for a revolution in which they might share the spoil without sharing the calamity; on the contrary, they desire, with unexampled ardor, to get rich, but the difficulty is to know from whom riches can be taken. The same state of society that constantly prompts desires, restrains these desires within necessary limits; it gives men more liberty of changing, and less interest in change.
Not only are the men of democracies not naturally desirous of revolutions, but they are afraid of them. All revolutions more or less threaten the tenure of property; but most of those who live in democratic countries are possessed of property; not only do they possess property, but they live in the condition where men set the greatest store upon their property.

Phoenix is actually a major regional hub, you shouldn't have trouble finding employment in it or Tuscon (although Tuscon frankly isn't as nice).

People in Arizona lose themselves within their sprawling criticism of literally everything, down to reality itself, rendering their local perspective useless outside of rationalizing why they can't afford to live in Scottsdale, and why they won't move out of the scorching, burning, dreadfully boring hell hole they trapped themselves in by moving there in the first place. There is nothing to do in Arizona that you couldn't do somewhere else, except for maybe stare at a cactus.
>>67989441
Did you visit Flagstaff? Although it's a much smaller city, it's probably one of the comfiest places to settle down in the country.
Great skiing too desu. Olympians summer and winter train there because the climate is excellent and elevation is high.
That's not really THAT impressive.
There are similar offers just 20 minutes outside the city (by bicycle).
This also confirms it:

I was born here, and originally hated the climate and wished for real winters. Now, I realize that this place has one of the most varied and perfect climates in the country. Flagstaff again is super nice for people looking for a more moderate climate.
>>67989759
If you don't live in Scottsdale, you cleeeearly know nothing of the true luxuries Arizona has to offer. ;) People with millions in the bank climb over eachother to buy 2000 sq ft houses there with a backyard only big enough for a swimming pool to get boiled alive in, and they still hate their lives. You are from Arizona and even you "used" to hate it. Hometown appeal finally brainwashed you into liking it eh?
