- 70 Small Towns You Could Retire on $1500 A Month
Are you thinking about retirement someday? Most of us would like to but these days many of us can't. It is too expensive and we didn't invest enough into our retirement planning. Today's video might help. We did a series of this video back in 2020, the prices have changed a little but it hasn't changed so much that it isn't doable for most.
Enjoy the video and don't forget the thumbs up.
Do you need a local Realtor for the area you want to move to?

I think we have the best deal. We moved from NYC to The west side of Youngstown ,Ohio 5 years ago. We are retired and make just under 5K a month on SS. Our landlord charges us $450.00 a month and said as long as we pay on time, he’d never raise it. So far so good. We rent a 2 bdrm , 1 1/2 bath, house, with a nice yard.. We’ve saved a small fortune.
Wow! $450. a month is fabulous. I live 50 miles south of Cincinnati, in a small town. A 2 bedroom is $1000. Plus all utilities are paid by the renters.
I'm glad you are enjoying it.
You're living like it's 1975! Congrats!
We moved from an hour north of NYC to small town Alabama. Bought a 3/2 and house payment is $560/month. Property taxes $450/yr, reduced to $2.70/yr as husband considered disabled. We are living on just about $5k/mo, too. The goal was to find something that one of us could afford when the other passes. Just finished watching and we are just outside Decatur. Lol😂
@@beachbumetta Amen! That is amazing to hear! Congrats
@@beachbumetta Where an hour north? I’m sure I know it, as I was born and raised in Ossining.
If only us old veterans got 1500.00 a month.
Negotiate
Do you have service related disabilities, and are a military veteran, you can apply for compensation monthly.
Depend on what percent disabled you are I think
I retired as an E8 with twenty years and get a little over $1000. You have got to be kidding if you think anyone could survive on that!
My rent is $1950! That's JUST the rent.
Briggs I got an idea for a video, I don't think You've done yet. How about a video on affordable RV parks across the U.S.? Since living the rv lifestyle myself and so many others doing it now, ( which is up 370% ) finding a nice affordable rv park is tough to do, a video on this matter would help so so many, thank you Briggs! ( A new and excited member here)
Look up Thousand Trails
Get a piece of land that doesn't have permits . Might save you a bundle when rv prices inevitably go up . I know tucson has some reasonable ones but you need ac in summer .
definitely
I need a place in Texas near the Gulf in southern area. Try that one. LOL . Love 😍😍😍 your videos.
I love that idea, and hope he does do a video on that idea! Thank you for coming up with it!
Thank you. I’m single and 68. By Gods grace I’m still able to work a 40 hour week. I will need to move once I retire I’m always a little surprised no one thinks to mention how close you are to a hospital and how that hospital is rated teaching hospital etc. Perhaps that might be one of your future criteria?
I agree. I am working a full week also still at 65. I'll work until I can't. But no matter, I would not live anywhere that did not have a teaching hospital within an hour. You get what you pay for!
Not to mention availability of doctors
Access to decent healthcare is so important.
So true being single makes moving a bigger decision and a little daunting thanks for the replys
@@helenedwards9304 Oh yes, being single is not where I’d hoped to be at 60; yet it’s better than a bad marriage.
A small to medium town that has a lot of retirees might be a good place for a handyman, something to think about
Hey guy,
This must be an extremely old video, because I live in Apache Junction and I cannot touch a one-bedroom apartment right now for less than $1,200 a month. Since covid, everything got expensive because people have become greedy unmentionables in life.
Got it. I pass through Apache on a road trip from California to Missouri. Quaint, $1,200.00 is keeping up with California. Just ridiculous 😱
I suspect that’s the case for most of these towns.
Not sure where in CA you can rent for $1200 @bigvalley4987
@@bigvalley4987ha it's about 3500 in the Bay
TJANKS FOR THE HEADS UP, BASED OFF YOUR UNNECESSARY BIAS/ RACIST COMMENTS ABOUT DETROIT, IT MIGHT FOLLOW THAT THE PLACES U SELECTED MAY CONTAIN A MAJORITY OF MORE SWINES LIKE U, SO I WON'T BOTHER TO SHARE WITH FRIENDS & FAMILY & JUST UNSUBSCRIBE TO TOXIC ENTITIES LIKE U WHO STILL EXIST ON THE TUBE!
My husband and I bought a house in a very small town at auction for $5000.00. We never regretted the purchase. Small town living is great! We live on retirement and SS and do alright.
Yes, I love this content. Please do a series of videos about living on Social Security, especially in warmer locations because of winter heating costs.
And arthritis!
Been through many of these towns as a trucker. Spur Texas has a new gig: Tiny Homes. They allow them in the city..
THANKS! I'm bleeding out where I live! Looking for options, at this point I want to just dig big hole or live in a cave on the side of a mountain!
They Should have more affordable tiny home communities but wealthy "investor" types are trying to ruin that also
I cant find a single apartment in Apache junction that rents for 400 bucks. They're all ranging 1500 to 2000 for a 1 bedroom
Exactly, rent has doubled or tripled and none of these prices of rents are valid in April 2024. Social Security checks have not doubled or tripled while food and rent have. This explains the exploding numbers of homeless seniors.
Rent roze up because of population boom? I lived in motorhome for 20yrs! Portland suburb said I can't! I said I don't! I live in my semi 3 weeks out out the month!!
Yup he's completely wrong about AJ in this video I turned it off after that cause all the others are prolly wrong as well
*Moscow Suburbs:* In the *New Moscow Administrative District,* Sosensky Urban Settlement, residential complex *"Spanish Quarters",* which is a comfort-class development. It's about 4.7 km away from the Moscow Ring Road and has a population of around 23K (divided into two areas: First and Second).

We live in the San Diego area. WE purchased our house in the 80's and never moved. We are the only people who can retire and afford southern ca and its weather. Our property taxes are very low and we have solar. Our water bill is our highest bill and we do not even water our lawn. We have no HOA fees. Feel bless we can afford to live here. All these places sound nice except the climates either too hot or too cold.
How much did you buy your house for and what’s it worth now?
That is first of a great , lucky,way to live and retire I've ever heard. no hater so I congrats to all luck and or smart picking people
Very Similar, Southern California in the 80's to escape the Crime on the east coast, weather great, feel terrible it's so expensive people, especially young folk can't afford a townhouse for $500,000😳😬Seriously🤨 a house here in the 90's 3bed,2bath 1977 square ft, two car garage nice area for $159,000.. Same place today $845,000 it's the Chaotic Extreme Liberalism gone crazy,with Record Homeless, theft, gangs..🤔 Huntsville, Alabama is my future..with no bills😎🙏💪☝️👍
Would appreciate a updated version. The wife and I love your videos looking to escape the current place of residents.
Hi Briggs, My kids (My son and his wife) live in Ogdensburg, NY. They have been looking at houses. 50,000 will get you a house. It's VERY close to Canada and the houses are cheap. Canton, Watertown, and an Army base are near by. But it does get a lot of snow, not so much this year. Retirees can live there for cheap.
Hard to find people to help as one ages..weather is tough on arthritis
Please do more videos like. this..especially warm climates
Why nobody talk about Texas is good place?
Thanks, I am going to investigate this for a home.
I lived in upstate New York. The property taxes were outrageous. Yes, you can get a House for $60,000, but the yearly property taxes and on it and the local school taxes could be as much as 6,000!
Next can you explore tiny home communities?
Tiny homes are outrageously overpriced. $40,000 for a 200 sqft tiny home??? That’s $2000 a sgft!
No foundation. No quality cabinetry. No basement. No storage. No appliances..
What a joke.
If you applied the same pricing strategy for a modest 1500 sqft home you would pay 3,000,000 for it.
What a gigantic ripoff.
@@jocarson5310 And to make matters worse, you have to LEASE the land, and it will keep going up! And a lot of those tiny home communities have ridiculous fees, like the one in Flat Rock, NC, which forces you to pay $5,000 just to move out! Insane.
@@jocarson5310 yes, those are a scam and sponsored by WEF to ensure we own nothing and eat our own feces...
If you are considering Oklahoma or the Texas panhandle you need to consider the weather
You should add if the state taxes Social security or pensions. That will make a big difference to retired people
This is April 2024. None of these places mentioned have the rental prices that are mentioned in this video. Rent has doubled if not tripled, while Social Security checks have not. I believe you now need at least $3,000 minimum to live anywhere in the U.S. Let me know if you disagree with me.
If you live in a van or RV and live off-grid on BLM land.
I'm outfitting my RV with solar and changing over to 12/24v systems.
There's no place city folk can live...even on $3k month
Where did his stats come from? Unbelievable this was done in 2021 I think. So he adjusted the cost to live there in 2024. Watching this was a waste of my time.
USA and SS is a joke! I live on 1600 a month and told I must tighten a belt. My home is paid off, which helps. But, I can't afford car repair, home repairs, etc. Eating out is not happening. And the only way you can live in any city in the USA is if you do passive income, REITs and ETFs, pull 2 jobs and put as much money from those jobs into passive income so that you can afford to retire. I don't buy steak, seafood, condiments, luxury anything and yet I'm told that I am wasteful with my money and just not being spending wisely! It is amazing how many people can't do math! The average amount needed for a true living wage in the USA is really 80,000 or more. It used to be around 50,000. This means we need to make at least 45 per hour or more, just to count for taxes!
I agree
I came to the same conclusion after checking many of these out! Greed will kill many of us older retired folks. We’re the fastest homeless population and the stress this causes is extremely bad for our health
Trailer parks - they are called tornado magnets.
😂❤😂
What does a GA divorce and a tornado have in common. Either way, someone loses a trailer!
Hurricanes too. I'm from Florida!😢
Yessss…
Please do more of this!
You help me satisfy my wonderlust. Thanks Briggs!
So Cal Native. Weather has made us picky. Husband hates humidity, brutal winters and summers. Baker City, OR did catch my eye as a place to retire. Thanks Briggs!
Baker City would be considered high desert just like Pennelton Oregon. Been to both and there is very little industry, which is how we all survive. Just remember that without business communities can't thrive and survive. We have lost the majority of manufacturing products to China and overseas. It's really very sad.
As a retiree, the body can't take the cold anymore. What about a place where the climate is not too bad and also diverse.
Nor the scorching heat of the desert, unless of course, you just stay inside in the A/C or poolside if you have one.
thanks for the vids.... i will echo what others have mentioned and that is for seniors....its very important that there are medical facilities close by without having to drive for an hour or more. in 2021, i retired and took a 4 month vacation/home hunting trip through cali, arizona, new mexico and texas and unfortunately hospitals/medical facilities can be far and few in many of the cool and affordable towns i looked at...i am a vet and finding V.A. facilities is quite difficult in small towns/cities.
Would love to see a list in Central Midwest (Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin, Iowa, etc.). Will you be adding that list at any point?
What about Missouri, Arkansas, Iowa, Illinois, Kansas, Nebraska? You missed a big chunk of the heartland - the proper Midwest
The livability score is likely low. MO and AR are definitely South.
Yes keep the theme videos coming Many people really need this information
You need to do some videos that include 2 bedroom apartments.
Wonderful list... Great job in compiling all this.
🤣🤣🤣 ... BRIGGS! ... "having to choose between toothache and hemorrhoids" ... 🤣🤣🤣 ... I just 'spat' my dinner!!! ... 🤣🤣🤣
What's funny about the statement is that Detroit hit a 57 year low in crime and is now lower than cities like Memphis, Little Rock, Rockford, Cleveland, Tulsa, OKC, Jacksonville, Springfield, Nashville, Indianapolis, etc
Why can't you have both?
Yeah that was funny, that Briggs! What a great guy, you can't help but love him!
Never eat when Briggs is on a roll. You will choke!

Keep talking , your tje best example of whats wrong.

Yes please more of these kind of videos!!! Thank you Briggs!
Great Video Briggs! Big THUMBS UP
In the winter you can pay upwards of $600 a month for heating in Vermont New Hampshire and Rhode Island. Thats not included in rent.
Kingston, TN is the town that time forgot.
Why is that? I've been looking for somewhere like Mayberry. I don't like the city. And nice quiet small towns are hard to find quiet.
Love your videos. Please more about cheap retirement places. Tyvm
Kingsport, TN ;-)
HaHa, that’s what my mother had said of Baker City, OR once when visiting
Pretty country
Love your videos. Very informative.
Thanks once again, Briggs.
Interesting to see so many places that one most likely never would see if not for videos like these! Thanks
Please continue this vid series for other places @ $1500/Mo..Thanks in advance~
Hello Briggs, I watched it two times again today, Decatur, Alabama caught my eye. Columbia, MS caught my eye. I do love the Frankfort, KY but stirring away from the cold. Again thank you so much and look forward to more of these. Happy Easter.
Briggs, thanks for the updates! I am a Navy vet with VA and hoping to rcv retirement soon.
Looking forward to more in the series!
I Love it! "Don't fear stats. Don't fear numbers"
I am so enjoying this!
Thanks for all your extensive information. It helps to know or have at least a ball park figure of each affordable town in all corners of the U.S.
Thx again! 🙏
Wausau has a great ski hill that they open up to ride the ski lift in autumn wkends to view the colors. Its provably a little colder and snowy but an awesome view coming into town from the south. 5 great granite hills across the area then its flat after the glaciers dropped off the granite.
YES I would truly appreciate hearing about others as well. I need to live in a generally mild climate... due to health not too hot and I never lived where it snowed
Sure, I'd love to hear about 50 more places to live!. Great job!
I love these videos of places I don’t think I’d ever want to live! Thank you for curing any of my wanderlust
Awesome list of affordable small towns for retirement on a budget! Makes dreaming of a peaceful, cost-effective life totally possible. 🏡
Ok. I have to say.
Rents may be cheap but did you know those amts don't include any utilities. Another shock? Apt complexes are charging, not only for costs IN your apt, but for maintenance (use it or not), bldg water, sewage, garbage, property care (snow removal, lawn mowing, ) electricity, and a bill for having to give you a bill! Then there's mandatory renters insurance.
Theres also ppl who reroute electric wires so if it's yours you can keep yours turned off or pay their bill.
So your rent may be advertised at 650 but the fees may add ùp to 900 w bldg costs, then you have the bills for your apt, maybe 200 if you use heat, air, refrigerator, hot water, lights, fans, tv, etc. So that your actual cost is 1150+/month.
I've rented for many years & what no one is saying is that every place for rent in every city or state demands income of 3 to 3 1/2 times the rent. It's the first demand and if you dont have it, even if you have a chunk in savings, nobody will rent to you. Good luck w subsidized housing, the waiting lists are years long. The newest problem, though, is the migrants who are given preference for any living space, and the companies who are buying up all bldgs and houses to rent only.
If you managed to get out of the US before or just after covid, you could get into Mexico w $500/month income. Now it is $3500/month and a healthy bit deposited in their bank. It's also no longer permitted to use the swinging door visa and illegal Americans are being deported back to the states.
Good luck everyɓody❤
La Grande, Oregon has a beautiful downtown, and outside of town is the Hot Lake Hotel, which is an awesome place to stay and soak in the hot tubs.
I live in the area of the Minnesota North Dakota border. There are several towns listed here. But really any town in this area is great. We drive to Fargo or Grand Forks for serious shopping. We even get a hotel for the night. Those are pretty cheap, too. I recently rented a two bedroom apartment for $400 a month. Then bought a house for $40K. It's a fixer upper. But is in a quiet neighborhood among other retirees. Yeah. There's no where else I want to live.
So are you technically in MN or North Dakota? I imagine that there could be a great difference in taxes between the two states?
Good to know, thank you.
Looking good Briggs are you working out your hair and face everything looking awfully healthy, have a great day, I'm from Redondo Beach California ☺️
Thats an expensive town
$1500 would be awesome. My SS is half that
Briggs I predict this will be a VERY popular video!
The price listed for Englewood is incorrect....the cheapest I've found is $1500/month for a shoebox
Hey Briggs - Great video! Please do as many of these as you can. Love the small town on a budget ones! If you can split them up so people can watch the ones they're most interested in, e.g. areas of the US, etc. that would be awesome.
Here's another idea for you: Please do a video on small towns for Older Hippies on a Budget - these would be places where the politics aren't too conservative, marijuana is legal, the weather is sunny and temperate, which keeps heating bills down and lets you have solar and grow organic food and exercise outdoors year round, and where you can live for not too much money. Extra points if the places have great internet, are diverse and are near a hospital. I'm up in the Pacific Northwest like you, and finding it pretty expensive here for retirement, and too cold and wet.
You'd have to move to Cali for all that. Better start playing the lottery!
Yeah, that's where I moved FROM 😂! I'm actually looking at Baja Mexico, near the border. But would love to find good options in the US.
I want a place that old hippies DONT LIKE No Marijuana No hemp. I live in south Oregon and am sick of the cannabis smell and crime and the cartels that go with it.
@@monicaclark9581 I'm afraid you have us confused with someone else. We are quiet gardeners who just want to be left alone and have kind and tolerant neighbors. We don't like crime or cartels either. Rural Oregon where we live is just too expensive for us to retire.
@@terrimykland1621I lived in southern OR when I was young and wish I could afford even to visit! I live in southern Mexico.
I live in a small town in Georgia on the Flint River/Lake Seminole. I paid off my mortgage and CC before I retired and have paid off car. My power bill is approx $100, ph and internet is another hundred and pay cc every month (around $200). Taxes are less than $1500 a yr, home ins $1200, about $200 monthly. Decent local medical available, small hospital…nearest large hospital about an hr away. Very hot in the summers but have mild winters. Gulf of Mexico an hour away, generally not affected by hurricanes (exception 2018). Think I’ll stay where I am.
Really appreciated that you did this compilation update. Noticed you did not include any place from Colorado… Must be too expensive.
I live in CO. This place is STUPID expensive!
Briggs, for enjoyable retirement check out some of the small towns around Branson Missouri. They do get some winter, but not terrible. There are 4 beautiful seasons. At the moment a person can get a house for much less than the asking price. In the towns around Branson you get to drive to the vacationland of Branson for attractions if you wish to, but because you don’t live in Branson itself you avoid the Branson traffic and get a quieter place to live. In these towns there isn’t a high crime rate. In 2024 Missouri is trying to become more senior friendly. The state government has voted a freeze on property taxes for those 65 and above. The counties have to vote on the bill to accept it in their county. Taney county, the county where Branson is located, will be voting on the property tax bill in September 2024. This is the Omari’s, or part of it, so there is plenty of lakes, rivers, fishing and nature for the retiree to enjoy. Check it out!
Not a chance. You traded Claire McCaskill for Josh Hawley. No thank you.
Love that part of the country, and Josh Hawley too. Beautiful. Very mild 4 seasons.
@@mariannem8419 to each their own. Soon I’ll be sitting in my Sunroom sipping my coffee looking at the lake view, listening to the birds and breathing the clean air. In about 2 weeks.
Yes I would love to see more like this.
Please, can you do this again but with cities that are relatively warm year round. And low humidity. (Raised in So. Cal. and am spoiled, but hey).
AZ
I'm also 'spoiled'. So. Cal. (San Diego Co.) on the coast.
@@ginnylorenz5265 You forgot to mention crowded and costly.
None in the U.S. Have to retire in Latin America and many are.
Apache Junction- it was the second one he said
Love these kind of videos.
Briggs this was excellent, this was perfect. There is many places that I love. I know I love the idea of Decatur, Alabama. However, I am going to watch it again and I will write down all that caught my eye. I have to research also to see how close I would be to keep my Veteran Healthcare. Thank you so much for this list.
Yeah, I'm doing the same thing, watching it again and writing down an the places that catches my eye, but only the ones in warmer areas. I hate the cold and bitter temps. I just can't do it anymore.
Dublin Georgia if you want to be near a VA 🏥 and southern small town living.
Hi All My husband and I live in south Alabama, Tillmans Corner. House prices to buy very reasonable. Also we pay no property tax as seniors. They just built a beautiful new VA Center. It's close to Mobile but far enough away.
Would love if you do more of these!
Coopersville is close to Lake Michigan, close to Grand Rapids for medical care. Very Small town rural
FYI, I just moved from Port Charlotte, FL just south of Englewood, Fl and the rents are significantly higher than your quote - even from 2010. The costs are so high that I left Florida and moved to Carrington, ND which is overall much more affordable. The rents in Port Charlotte for a 1 Bdrmwas running (less than 6 months ago $1500/month not including utilites etc.) and we weren't as popular as Englewood.
Can confirm the cost of housing has gone up so quickly and so fast it’s hard to believe and keep up with.
@jaywizz7008 depends of course on what housing type you are looking for, but in Port Charlotte, a 1 bdrm apt was $1400 -1600 / month. I don't know what trailers rent for, but it should be easy to find out.
Have our own place here in Punta Gorda Florida and my daughter rents in Port Charlotte and the rent is ridiculous, remember when there was no Murdock and used to hunt deer and hogs off Peachland Blvd, there was no houses out there and North Port wasn't anything but a gas station and convenient store on the way to Venice, use to rent a house in Port Charlotte for about 250-300 dollars a month when I was 18-19
Also grew up in Englewood, on lemon Bay,New Point Comfort Rd, nice beach but expensive now, everything has changed so much down here,i remember a totally different world around here back in the 70s-80s it's completely different now
Hi Briggs 😊 Just stumbled across your channel. Like you, I don't like the heat but am currently living in Dallas, Tx because I found an apartment for seniors that is dirt cheap but safe. I would love to find a place to live that doesn't "melt my false eyelashes off". Love that quote😂😂 I don't need good schools or a job as a retiree, but lower rent and access to medical facilities would be a good thing. Thank you for all the research you do to bring us this information!
Great video. I live in Phoenix, never thought about Apache Juction 😂
Yes please! More videos like this❤
This is a good information blog. Do more I’m looking for a place that isn’t so cold that you freeze your back in off, or so hot you crispy cress just stepping out your door.
Try Peru, Indiana! Not too far from Logansport. A little smaller but great ambiance.
Thanks Briggs
💯 Exctly Brothers...I Discovered the Ressorce..of Sicknesses....in Manhattan...
Wow how nice thanks for sharing
Tiny Homes are becoming popular , especially by seniors and young couples.
I’m in for more, more, more!! 73 years old here and we would love to live. Wish you would also mention average house price. Some of us seniors considering the move will be selling our homes and will have money we could invest in a smaller home. Downsizing is in the picture or maybe a condo or duplex, just the average range of smaller homes. It would be wonderful info! ❤
So mostly cold places in the Midwest and east makes sense why it’s so cheap
It’s by region. Gotta keep watching.
I like cold weather myself especially 4 seasons, Pittsburgh is such an underrated city.
Do more of these that are in moderate weather climates.
then they won't be affordable
@@lkd06 😭😭😭
Anytime someone points out something good it soon becomes discovered and what was a good deal is now a fantasy. What needs to happen is we stop being greedy but we all know that isn't going to happen.
Yes more budget videos please
Briggs, always watch your vids. Great work. Can you do a vid on Marianna FL, Jackson County for livability, thanx
BTW! Qw thoroughly enjoy your viseo reviews, No matter what the topic. Knowlede is the key to life!
Do not trust the numbers in this video
My husband and I watch you on TV and really enjoy your work! We live in Polson. Mt. And while we are sure it's cheaper in other places, it's beautiful here and 2 of my sons and families live here. It's fun to seecwhat you find though. Thanks for making it funny as 😂well!😂
I love The World According To Briggs!
1-thing comes to mind that has become important to Seniors: Availability of the delivery of ordered goods. Fed-Ex, Walmart, Amazon…it makes small towns very appealing.👵🏼
I currently live in Prosser, WA. For the past 23 yrs. We are hoping to return to IN. We like this area of the state. However the other side of the mountain…..King County dictates the woke politics. I realize your criteria and Prosser has come a long way. We have met some very kind people here. We own a large home with acreage. We have a good community hospital which is a blessing. We di have just twi seasons here…..I call them…..wind & fire. We get a lot of each. I’ve never lived anywhere so windy. I have lived in many places and sone states more than once. Prosser is growing. So much since we have been here. Overall…..not a bad place to live.
It’s good for me. I sweat and hold ceremony with the Yakama or other tribes in the area. I am Lakota/Eastern Cherokee and my Rez is in SD. The Yakama are such a friendly tribe.
AWESOME info 👍❤
Glad it was helpful!
Apache Junction expensive ever since Covid
The problem with many of the places (esp New England where I came from & love) even a $150k house can carry a 6k or more real estate tax every year wh substantially cuts into the budget.
Definitely give us some more options definitely. Apache Junction sounds awesome especially since since the schools are lousy and we won’t have to put up with kids lol. Shady point sounds cute too and I love the fish.
Apache Junction is EXPENSIVE!!!
This is so helpful because I'm going to pass it on to people who are living homeless and have social security in places like California Olympia Washington Oregon etc.
I'm on a fixed income as I am only withdrawing from Social Security that I paid into. I sure hope that no one guts SS and Medicare or else I don't know what I would do as a widow.
Vote blue then.

Central Falls , RI is a ghetto place. Honestly RI in general is very pricey to live tax wise.
No truth about Apache Junction at all it is expensive here 😂❤
That’s true!! I love AJ, when I used to live in AZ! Loved going to the Renaissance festival out there too!! So much fun!

If you own your mobile home in Apache Junction, the land rent can be as much as $930 a month and it goes up every year. Corporations are taking them over.
Thanks for the heads up, I was looking at that place to. Not now tho.
Love when you do these! Good job! I guess Honesdale PA didn’t make the cut! Lol I love Honesdale too, we have a summer home about 20 min from there!
Keep up the great videos!
North Carolinian here.... never heard of Mockville.... but I think you mean Mocksville. i grew up about 20 minutes away in Salisbury. what we call the Piedmont. On your map the arrow was in the mountains almost in Tennessee. Mocksville is 1 hour north of Charlotte as you said. i really couldn't live in any of the towns you mentioned. they are way to small. thanks for the video.
Thanks! Could you please do one for Southeastern States where it isn't so cold?
The South United States one bedroom apartment is anywhere from 1200 to 1600 a month, forget homes 500.000 up, and that's cluster housing on slabs side by side. Cost of living and taxes have sky rocket and food tax high. Unless you go to a food desert and low poverty, level.
Which one would you move to?
I've always preferred colder weather, so some of these places seem great! I'm originally from Colorado, but I've always wanted to live in Maine ❤ Thanks Briggs!
I loved Cherokee, IA where I grew up. And Alliance, NE spent time there with my grandmother. Live in small town Horicon, WI for now. Property taxes are high here but we do have alot of lakes. Add in shopping availability because it gets more expensive northern WI. Small towns don't have decent clothing outlets that make us travel 40 to 75 miles to a Costco.
Littleton, N.H. was actually a consideration of mine in 1990. Florida won.
But, we all know what's happening there. So, maybe it's time for Littleton.
Great video as always 👍. I watch them All!
Thanks Briggs! ✌️♥️
