I was hoping you moved around in your travels, as you did. When you happen upon a town or area that is definitely not you, it is best to move on. I am from Connecticut and there are places I never go to. :) OK, I went and decided, no way! I have lived both ways and I like being able to walk, but, that brings other problems. Traffic, higher insurance, (more accidents) higher taxes usually. People commuting. Living a little out can bring other problems, no public transportation, medical/doctors /grocery/hardware stores further. But, it has tradeoffs. You get more for your money in housing/property. Will you have kids? You have so many options. Glad you are going to rent. I wouldn't do it any other way.

Yes, we needed to move around as much as possible. And we saw really a lot of places and areas.
We are drawn to living a bit out of it all. Much more than living in a busy area. We won’t move to a city. Nope. Maybe an edge of a small village or between two. We will see.
We prefer space and a garden. And the perks that come with it. It is really a trade off.
We are still young enough to travel and drive a car. 🙂
We (actually I) have moved so many times and lived in such different places. Countryside, villages and in the centre of a large city. Mountains and sea side and everything in between. We should know what we would prefer by now.
If I crave a city, I just visit it.
Renting first is the best starting point for us. Than we have time to search for our home to settle and stay. 😊🥰 kids… we are way last that point 😉
Have a lovely evening Denise.
I mostly drive to the city. A house was built out enough to be convenient to work and the city, but, able to enjoy the freedom of living out and having the gardens. I love gardens. And peach trees and apples, pears, kiwi, and pomegranate- oh! Figs! many of them.
I use mass transit, but, far enough out that a car is easier for me.
Haha! I don't think I will ever be too old for that! :)
No way! I was waiting for the kids! Oh, well. Another lifetime. :) I know you will find the perfect set up. Wait for another year, prices are falling weekly.
Yes, sounds convenient. But I know you are looking for a bit further out too. As it is getting more busier.
Gardens are a must. For us veggies, herbs and fruits too 😁 and nature close by for walks/ trails. 🥰
You are right, we are probably never too old for driving and traveling. 😊
Really… hahaha we are not the youngest any more either. Another lifetime for hubby indeed.
Timing wise it would be perfect with the falling prices. Now getting there first.
Tomorrow we have a new meeting about progress and what the delays are. 🤞🏻🤞🏻
YAY!!! It is about time. No rush. When it crashes, the Northeast gets hit hard. Of course, here, not so bad. We live near the government... it wouldn't look good for this area to be poor!
Yep, I know what you mean.
Have a wonderful day today Denise 👋🏻😁
