I want to go where; cost of living is low it's not too cold not too hot no tornadows no floods must be near a large lake or river no bugs NO SPIDERS! near mountains where I can go hang gliding anytime. nice house 6 or 8 acres of land 2 car garage separated workshop large enough to build an airplane. Am I asking too much?
Try the foothills of NC - maybe near Lake James. There are spots just like you describe in our 'almost' mountain counties - you're less than 1 hr away from the mtns, but low enough elevation to avoid the bad winter weather. We've got it all here! You may as well come too. Seem the whole rest of the country is moving in next door...
Sounds like you want to be near the outdoors but not have any bugs, which probably won't happen And if you're near a lake, you'll probably get some flooding. But if you want not so hot summers and not so cold winters, northern/central california is probably a good bet. I live in the san francisco bay area and our winters are usually in the 50s and our summers in the 70-90s. But throughout most of the year its in the 70s. Not humid, and beautiful. Mountans and lakes... But also more expensive than most parts of the country.
PA has most of those things you are asking for. The weather is relatively mild, though they can have very cold winters. There is quite a bit of land and the price of living is decent if you are not looking for a job. Many of our workers here in NJ actually come from PA because the work is difficult to find there. As far as bugs, you will have those everywhere, but at least there are no scorpions or tarantulas to worry about. We do have quite a bit of wild life though. Also, the Appalachian Mountain range is close by, and PA is by no means a "flat" state!
... I guess with our -40°F temps and skeetos the size of B-52 bombers, we don't qualify, huh? Do volcanoes bother you?
Show Low, AZ But you are going to have bugs no matter where you go. Heck, I'd love to have a place in San Diego about now.
