Yes, this is the hardest part

The only thing that really keeps us here is my wifes parents. We are now at the point where this is not that big of a deal. But to just up and move away from everyone you know, is a big decision.

Somtimes you just got to say, "what the fuck".

hmm interesting list...

Biloxi-Gulfport, Mississippi
Charleston, South Carolina
Gainesville, Florida
Bryan-College Station, Texas ( telling a person from Austin to move to Bryan? I think not! )
Tallahassee, Florida
Jackson, Mississippi
Athens, Georgia
Hattiesburg, Mississippi

Hell, the only location that wasn't in the south was St. George, Utah, and the description of it said "This town is known as “Utah’s Dixie” because of its history of growing cotton…"

I don't know where you've been looking for places - the boonies maybe. I lived in Miami most of my life and for $500 a month, you can rent yourself a nice tiny studio... in the ghetto. Any 2 bedroom apartment in a semi-decent neighborhood is going to run you at least $900.00 which is about the same as in most places I've been looking at in Orange County.
