    Only $5K a year to life in Baltimore and they only select 20 people. The city needs to make it $25K and free security alarm to live in that city.

      Better still, a free armed guard for Baltimore. Baltimore once had steel mills that paid good wages and bennies, and a waterfront that shipped the steel all over the world, and they had good paying jobs, too. In Balitimore, steel has become "steal," sadly.

    For people commenting about the places that don’t want anyone over 40 to move there. If you are under 40 odds are you either have children or will be having children. That means the local schools will receive a boatload of money from the state for each child you put into the school system. Also, people with kids generally stay put for 10 or more years which keeps the tax base stable. It’s always about the money, always look for who’s getting paid. That’s where you will find the answers to your questions lol

Of you love very little sunshine, lots of rain, snow, ice and cold then that's the place for you. We moved to Georgia 30 + years ago and it was the best decision ever.

      I live in a city in Europe where there is LOADS to do. But 90% of the middle income people that I know just go to the same pub week in, week out. Cinema, theatre, historical walks, walks in nature ... nope. Not just people that I know. I've asked others, and pretty much that's all the expats do. So I guess it depends on what you would actually do if you move somewhere versus what there is available to do

    One, casinos should put up low income housing for seniors to get all their money (senior living options are running out), and two, if cities had a brain, they would buy their abandoned shopping malls before they fall into ruin and instead make live/work communities in them for artists musicians, makers, filmmakers, you tubers, etc. A lot of creative low income people still spend money in a community.

Over the past years, that has gone to extremes to the point where housing pricing has increased 40%. Houses that sold for $350K 4 years ago, will now sell for $650K. A condo downtown Bentonville went for over a million a couple of weeks ago.

    There are a lot of considerations when moving to another state. Some states have state income taxes (such as California), or laws that will seem strange (e.g., Louisiana), or local customs or traditions that would seem offensive. Consider also the availability of nearby: doctors/hospitals, the types of restaurants/foods you like, and wifi/cell phone service. You may be surprised to find that you have to resort to Amazon to get your favorite foods, and there are no fill-in-the-blank restaurants within 100 miles! Of course, that could be an opportunity... for you to open a store and supply the goods/services to your area. :D
