It was all of the above. With small kids, we wanted a smaller town life for them to grow up in vs. the So CA pace of life.
Have never felt so unstressed in life. Last week we had a 9″ snowstorm on Wednesday, and today it was was warm sunny and the snow is 90% gone. Have never seen the kids so happy playing in the yard/snow for 4 hours/day.
The fact that apples to apples housing (schools, neighbors, etc) is apx <50% of the comparable SD housing it awesome. More college fund savings!
