Well that makes sense.

Hah, yeah right, the winters here are getting colder and longer not warmer. However, the landscaping company that takes care of Easton thinks that will hold true. I noticed palm trees planted in the ground there. I think it's to fool everyone into thinking they are someplace else other than Ohio. Reality will set in 3 months from now when it starts snowing again until May and that we never had a summer.

Yep, that will happen in some places. Mid-latitudes will actually begin seeing longer and more severe winters.

Great! Time to sell the house and move south, better paying jobs down there anyway and cleaner/newer cities.

the reason i started this thread was to see if i should leave baltimore for columbus, i grew up in columbus but left for school in 96, (17yrs old) so my thoughts on columbus are not respectable for where im at in my life now. I just want to to see peoples opinion on the city, and thanks for all the opinions. To my point, if there is anyone who has ever lived in the frederick, hagerstown area, but now lives in columbus or vice versa tell me your thought on both and why. THANKS

Oh, yes! Move South for better paying jobs, beautiful new cities, spectacular warm weather, cheap housing - should I go on?

The days of cashing in and moving down South to the land of opportunity and the good life are pretty much dead at this point. To prove my point, why don't you try and go to the Charlotte, NC forum (for example) and post that you'd like to "move their without a job" or move with a job and find "cheap housing because you sold your house here for big $$$" and see what kind of response you get.

Nowadays, moving to anywhere without a job is a gamble, wouldn't you say? Adjusted for cost of living, what fields pay significantly better in the south than in the north--just curious? And it always pays for one to be up to speed with homonyms!

No
I came to Columbus about a year ago.
Within two weeks of looking I had 4 interviews and 2 job offers.
Come to think of it whenever I've moved, I've just done it then looked for a job later.

Live a little!
