Thank you.

Yeah, we live in a Western state and I grew up in a Midwestern state. So we're highly considering moving back that way to be closer to family. The state that we currently live in is just one that I've never thought would be the best to raise children.

Growing up in the Midwest and just seeing how people interact with their neighbors, the weather and the climate is something that I also feel like is better. I live in a desert state and I want to move back to one with four seasons is nice. And again, just the biggest reason was just to be closer to family.

and a place for my children to know that this is where they're growing up and going to graduate from high school.

I do think the cost of living in the state we're looking at is about 5% to 10% less than the state we're currently living in. To me, the biggest things with finances is hoping to get a similar salary in the new state, but also just not taking a huge hit in terms of moving costs.

When I start to do the basic research about what it will cost to physically move a house of our size with all of our items and two small children, the numbers can be alarming. But I remind myself that millions of people have done this, but it's just something that's a little scary to start.

I think I'm comfortable sharing that I am a high school teacher. I have spoken to a couple schools in the area we're considering moving to. I have had an interview that I'm still waiting to hear back about if that will be a possibility. My wife is a journalist, and she has a potential job lined up that she could transfer within the same company.

So we're both optimistic that a somewhat easy transition could happen with similar income levels, maybe adjusted for cost of living.
