I’m drawn to places like Minnesota and Chicago, but lower cost of living might be my only realistic options with the economy and the helldebt my ex saddled me with.
I’m just looking to teach like high school math in a place where I can afford a one bedroom without roommates. Somewhere I could hop on public transport to pick up my T prescription, or even have it delivered. Where I can be stealth but also it not really matter whether I am or not.
Where should I go?
Maybe a mid-sized city in a deep blue state. Metros will be more expensive and more progressive, and rural towns will be cheaper and more conservative. So you might try your luck with the purple in between. While the environment would be more of a mixed bag than, I don’t know, San Francisco or something, the state governments would be able to be counted on at least to be consistent.
