ParticipantAccording to the South Carolina tobacco board, tobacco farming still is alive and well in the northeast, but doesn’t seem to be as common in the northwest (Greenville) area. This is an important difference, as nicotine is very volatile – if you stand in a tobacco field and breath it in, you can get a significant dose of nicotine. Not something I’d want next door . . .

One of the biggest problems with Michigan, from my point of view, is the fact that it is a peninsula. This leads to an almost constant cloud cover (I have been told that Ann Arbor has more overcast days per year than Seattle) and weather that isn’t the most desirable. People used to live there because of the work opportunities and the tendency of families to stay in the same place – but those factors don’t really apply as much any more. [/quote]My geography of the area is really bad. I had to map it.
My cousin’s son lives in Bloomington, IN and works for the university there. He says that one of the best places in USA to live — a cultural oasis in midwestern desert. It’s on my list of places to check out, one of these days.

ParticipantWe rent a 8-900sqft. house for 725/mo. House could probably be had for 40-60k. Traverse City area. After renting here for a year, and trying to find rentals, I don’t know where else better I’d pick if I wanted to become a landlord. Actually kind of hard to find places to rent as well.. I think there must be some rent assistance propping rent prices up/changing your usual dynamic.
