ctr, have you ever considered relocating to (biz-friendly) Tulsa (OK)? Lots of people from CA already have. There’s so much traffic there now in the middle of the biz day, I thought I was trying to turn left onto Figueroa St (in LA) in a recent “visit” for the day (to get my car repaired). With all the drivers of (still) CA-plated vehicles to contend with, it took me over four stoplight changes to get thru one traffic light there and more than five mins to safely turn left out of a gas station :=0
After noticing my license plate, the service writer asked where I was from and I told him “San Diego.” It turned out that he, the owner and their chief mechanic were all from SD County, having relocated there in the last few years :=0
You could reside in a “red state” with nice large cheap brick homes on large lots and feel right at home with an abundance of “escaped Californians” all around you :=]
