Or if you can suggest someplace near by that is safe and is a easy commute. I don't mind the drive and I like rural areas. I don't know how much the pay will be so I can't tell you that. I just want some place safe since I was attacked and shot at in Atlanta just for a few dollars. I need out, any help?

You might be making the same mistake I made when I left Detroit. (If you are focusing on housing that must be in the suburbs)
All of Detroit has crime issues, like Atlanta, so when I got transferred to Lexington,KY I made SURE to find housing in the suburbs. Big surprise, I could have lived cheaper and more conveniently in the city itsself, Lexington was safe and very attractive. Moves after to Paducah, Chattanooga, and now Omaha I kept more of an open mind. I now live in the city itsself, MidTown/Aksarben area and have no fear of crime here.
You will love the easier commutes here! My Company's headquarters are in Atlanta. When I was in Chattanooga I was sent to Atlanta from time to time. Sheesh. Only 1 1/2 hours to your county line, then over an hour to get the last 15 miles by Marietta. Good thing I didn't need to get downtown or to the airport there.
I'm not ruling out LaVista or Papillion, have friends and co-workers living there. If your job is in LaVista, all the better, being close to work. But you can look in Omaha itsself for housing. The only area I would not look in is NorthEast. That leaves alot of other areas to look in.
( I'm surprised you have not received alot of posts from our 'Chamber Commerce' members )
