I'm a single plain jane mother in late 20's with a daughter and dog. im looking to live somewhere within a 8-9 hour drive from the Superstition Mountains in Apache Junction, AZ and was thinking about Colorado, MAYBE Utah. I was hoping someone familiar with those areas could give me some ideas on where to start looking that has cheap houses for rent or rent to own if the area is good enough and also safe. I'm getting to the point in my life where I want to pick a place to start settling down and actually buying a house with maybe a little bit of land to get a horse or two. I don't like cold I love the mountain mentioned above but don't want to live in AZ. Looking for a place that is cheap rent or mortgage and cheap living. jobs aren't too important I can pretty much do anything. Please help!
Colorado has become a leftist hellhole. I left fourteen years ago; it's far worse now. Drug use has become astronomical since the legalization of marajuana. Illegal drug dealers switched to heroin. It's very expensive as well. Winters range from moderate to very cold depending on the area. Try southern Utah.
Thanks for the feedback, don't get me wrong I love AZ but the economy isn't the greatest and not the best place to raise a kid at least not where I grew up. the houses were cheap you could get a nice little place for $50-$80,000 but the people suck. I lived most my life there I love the desert but looking for something different to live out the rest of my life. So you both agree with Utah huh? ok I will check that area out a little more. if you can think of anything else please let me know I'll have to take a trip to check out the areas. Thank you!!!
I think Pueblo may have a pretty reasonable cost of living. May have changed after the pot enthusiasts moved here.
May be lots of jobs in Canon City. We love to toss folks in jail. Many wind up in Canon City. I don't know why they devoted our best climate to hailing inmates. I might say to save on energy bills but the government is more in to spending than saving. 19 trillion examples...
