I’m in Arkansas

I’m sorry.

I grew up there. The northern part of the state is honestly one of the prettiest parts of our country. It is also filled with some of the most vile people. Vile people from everywhere else go there to retire and add to the smegma pot.

Not true. There are many shitty looking places in the south that don’t attract remote retirees but are equally vile.

It is a beautiful state, especially the part in the ozark mountains. But there is no way I could live there because of the people. It also lacks a single great city (Little Rock is a dump).

Why a dump? I thought it was a pretty decent place for living in, if it wasn’t for the state.

I’m European so I don’t know that much about stuff like this, but isn’t it kinda easy to move from state to state in US?

It is, but with a few caveats that can make it outright impossible, largely down to financial issues.

From a legal standpoint, it’s only slightly more annoying than moving from one town to another. You don’t have to go through any sort of immigration process or anything, you just inform the state you’re leaving and the state you’re moving to of the change in address, and then get tax/identification stuff done like registering your car in the new state and getting an in-state driver’s license.

Financially, the housing market is a mess in the US right now for a number of reasons, from the number of new houses being built not keeping up with population growth for like 60 years and many empty houses being in unlivable condition due to lack of maintenance, to many homes being owned by investment companies (and wealthy Chinese apparently) as basically a high yield savings account or bought up by companies and people turning them into rental property. And that’s before you get into the logistics of moving your life to a new home.

It is. If you have money. Trust me, if I had the funds, I’d be somewhere different in a heartbeat.
