    Lots of nice cities in New York state if you ever are in a position to move. Beautiful places with nature too. Plus a lot of new yorkers retire to Florida so it’s like the opposite

      Yea but 90% of everything above Orange County is intensely conservative.

      Albany and Saratoga are fine, a few spots here and there are ok, maybe Ithaca and other bigger areas, but legit the entire reason I left Fulton/Montgomery (besides the rampant meth abuse and constant threat of violence) was so I could raise my kid in a place not dominated by rebel flags and red white and blue truck balls.
