I am a 32 year old, single professional female. I currently live in the Milwaukee area and am looking for a change of scenery, but trying to narrow down where I'd like to live and I'd like your opinions!
1. I want to be on or a short drive (30 minutes) from a major body of water. Major lake, ocean, or major river.
2. I like the amenities of a major city. I don't need to live downtown, but I like access to sporting events (if there is a major college in town, that's an added bonus), music and art options. If a Target isn't within a 15 minute drive, something is wrong.
3. I can be fairly versatile in a job (I have a marketing degree), so I don't have to have a specific industry in town.
4. As with most people, I'm sure, I'd like the cost of housing to be affordable. Under $1000 to rent or $150-$175K to buy something modest.]
5. After 32 years, the Wisconsin winters have taken a toll on me. I'm not against the cold/winter, but I'd like somewhere where it only snows a handful of times a year versus for 6 or more months.
where i live there is no targets for 5 towns over, lol. or about 15-16 miles
