Looking for suggestions for a place to move in the US as a remote employee - Lemmy

So the work I do is 100% remote now. I moved to Southern California because of an industry that has in part moved to remote work. My only requirements are a temperate climate and hopefully a blue-ish state. Is there a place out there that makes sense financially? I’m hoping to buy a house less then 500k. I don’t need access to large cities as I honestly don’t do anything. The only requirement I can think of if access to solid internet as I stream full screen video for what I do.

West Virginia. No I'm not kidding.

They will pay you $12,000 to move there. Housing costs are absurdly low. Morgantown is a thriving university town close to Pittsburgh. And the eastern panhandle has a lot of access to VA & MD.

Move there and vote please.

I’m seriously considering this, thanks. If you had to say, what are the downsides of West VA?
If you’re trying to find work if the remote gig fails, good friggin luck
Yeah, this is definitely a thought, but in all honestly, it’s either remote work or one end of a shotgun for me
