If we could buy 1000 acres or more, who would join us?

I have hunted up there when I was younger when it was so cold you could hear the bark explode off the trees.

Bikini weather.

 

[H. E. Panqui]

...i've lived (briefly) in northern wyoming (gillette) and although i like the people, the weather sucked (hot summers, cold winters)...

...anyone know of a free state(s) project where, for example, this maine yankee can enjoy the best late springs/summers/early falls on the planet while 'wintering it out' in say,' 'free state' rural alabama, (cheap land, taxes) northern florida etc.?...

..for those interested in gathering their own wild food (esp. fish, mushrooms, etc. ad nauseam) maine can be a jewel...central/northern mainers are notorious wild fish snobs and many will eat only brook trout, landlocked salmon, maybe togue,...but these fish are covered under fish and game laws here...you are limited on your take...but, for example, white perch have no limits applied to them and they are some good eating!...my brother and i routinely fill a cooler with nice white perch right around this time time of year .....(we freeze most of them and enjoy beautiful fish chowders all winter)

...i hate to sound conceited but next time you fly over the dry, sparse, dull brown, barren-ish, 'west,' compare that with the lush green-ness/clean blue water of say, maine, nh, vermont... to me, no comparison...

...but i likes me some floribama (arizona/nm is great too) in jan. feb. march and most of april!...

...i agree that wyoming/montana might be a better choice in a shtf boston/ny/etc. exodus situation...

... i have a very knowledgeable friend who tells me i'm crazy for not buying (esp. during favorable us/canada money exchange periods) in coastal nova scotia...which he describes as heaven for about 7 months/year...

Just fyi.. property tax in Florida can vary a lot between counties..none are what I would call low. I think the bottom 4 in property taxes are Louisiana, Alabama, Arkansas and of all places, Deleware
found that on http://www.tax-rates.org/taxtables/property-tax-by-state

Alabama is really starting to appeal more to me now

Too cold. What is it with libertarians and cold weather?

You can drink more in cold weather...

Winter sports...

Snowmobiles..

Fireside sex...

Easier hunting..

There's pros-n-cons to all climates....

I like colder places since I can put on more clothing if it's colder. If it's hot on the other had, the only way to cool down is to go into the swimming pool or stay indoors with the AC on. That's why.. Oh and also, sauna's.

It's easier to get warm than to cool off. There's game to hunt and creeks to fish.

It's easier for me to cool off and we have game and creeks, too. Plus, we have a longer growing season.

What state are you in?

Georgia

Georgia

That might be a decent place to go. I hear the swamps are a good place to live.

I prefer the lakes and Shootin' the Hooch...

Check out the American Redoubt:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Redoubt
http://www.americanredoubtrealty.com/

The American Redoubt[1] is a political migration movement first proposed in 2011 by best-selling survivalist novelist and blogger James Wesley Rawles[2][3] which designates three states in the northwestern United States (Idaho, Montana, Wyoming), and adjoining portions of two other states (eastern Oregon, and eastern Washington) as a safe haven for conservative, libertarian-leaning Christians and Jews.[1][2]

Kim Murphy, a reporter for The Los Angeles Times summed up one motivation for the movement: "For a growing number of people, it's the designated point of retreat when the American economy hits the fan. When banks fail, the government declares martial law, the power grid goes down."[2] The same article identified Rawles as "the guru of the movement."[2] Summarizing one of his reasons for formulating the relocation strategy, Rawles stated: "I'm often asked why I make such a 'big deal' about choosing conservative Christians, Messianic Jews, or Orthodox Jews for neighbors. The plain truth is that in a societal collapse there will be a veritable vacuum of law enforcement. In such times, with a few exceptions, it will only be the God-fearing that will continue to be law-abiding. Choose your neighborhood wisely."[4]
