Well, weight your options and keep me posted. I know things there aren't that great. As far as I know States can't file for bankruptcy, only cities. There might be other avenues though, none of which seem particularly good right now. Illinois, and Connecticut, aren't looking too good right now. I won't even mention Detroit, that while devastated as one of the highest property taxes! Just do your due diligence. You'll be okay.
I don't really follow Michigan or Detroits politics but I have a feeling maybe Detroit is like the Chicago of Michigan.
Suprisingly Michigan has very good housing affordability, I think is ranked pretty well in terms of taxes and cost of living, etc. I really enjoy the SW Michigan beach towns but not really a realistic place to live as I'm sure they become ghost towns outside of summer. I was just out at a really cool Brewery and beach in Stevensville MI the other weekend
Last time I went to Chicago was about 5 years ago for a business convention. It was April and cold as hell. I was living in NYC at the time. I can't see myself ever going back to living in a colder climate.
Is Chicago even colder than NY?
Hell yeah it is! Chi-Town is about 4 times colder than NYC. It was April in NYC and the trees were blossoming, but all the trees and plants in Chicago were all dead. The wind alone made it feel like February in NYC.
