Sincerely - would you move from Wyoming to Nebraska?

My dad's family is all from around Bloomfield, so Knox co. is "home" for me, too. But, Wayne is where I actually grew up.

I've lived in Wyoming for 4 years, Laramie and Nebraska 17. If I had my choice, Wyoming. Taxes and insurance are sooooooo much more affordable. People in Laramie I found were fantastic. Small town feeling yet had all the amenities of large town. Windy? Nothing like Western Nebraska. it's hot, humid and windy all at once for days. In comparison, yet Laramie was somewhat windy but it had a coolness about it. Nebraska humidity can cause allergies to flare, sweat when it's only 8AM and yes tornadoes. But you can usually get away from them and you have advance notice. Don't move to a different state from Wyoming...just move to a different town. Wyoming is pretty big and you've got lots of different environments to choose from. Laramie was close to the big cities (2 hrs from Denver, 1/2 hr from Cheyenne) close to mountain living (1/2 hr from Snowy Range). You've got it all right there.

Yeah...I thought Laramie was a great town. I have to agree. i've been there a couple times. I really like Cheyenne as well. Both those towns are of nice size and in a pretty region. As well as being not far from Rock Mountian National Park in CO and other mountains. I would live in those two towns should the opportunity arise.

I've lived in Wyoming most of my entire life and this year is the first year I made it to Laramie - twice even. The neighborhood by the college is so beautiful with the Victorian homes and bungalows. I came over the pass from Denver in January and it scared me so bad. I saw a vehicle hit the center barrier and semis sliding...then I caught ice and thought it was over!

I traveled there again the beginning of this month for my daughter's orientation - gorgeous coming from Rawlins. We spent most of our time being deluged with college info so we didn't get to go on some of the scenic roads, but will be back in August and hope to spend a little more time there. The southeastern part of the state might be a consideration - it would bring us 400 miles closer to my hubby's family anyway without leaving the state...hmm, something to consider - thanks Missinghome2.

Darrow: Laramie would be a nice consideration. Tis very beautiful, and less as hectic as Cheyenne. I have been looking into the panhandle of Nebraska and it seems really pretty and rugged like Wyoming. Plus you have access to the Black Hills and the Rockies. As well as you, I have been investigating the Sandhills. www.visitnebraska.com Is a nice website for info of all sorts. Hope this helps.
