So, in this video we dive in before they get too popular—because trust me, once you know, you can’t unknow.

Home buying tips

The average household at around an 80-85k income can afford a home about $270-$300k, not $400-$500k and that's at 80-85k which half of Americans don't even make.

Do you want to move to that perfect place?

I live next to a corn field every other Summer. What is really freaky is going outside in July and listening to the corn talk. That took me a bit to get used to. LOL!

I’d like to compile data with how quickly a city goes on his crap list after his best list. I think 5 years of good word of mouth is enough to ruin almost anywhere.

Most of these cities doesn’t have diversity and flaunt their Racism heavily!! Good luck being from elsewhere, especially Arkansas Virginia Kansas Iowa and famously the Racist Saturated Mormon state Utah!! Good luck, I’d rather have my coffee and liquor states, he’s way off the mark!!

I really appreciated how this video brings attention to cities that often fly under the radar—places where charm, livability, and affordability converge. Instead of focusing only on big metros, it highlights hidden gems that can actually offer more value—and perhaps a better quality of life—than crowded coastlines or expensive urban centers.

If you had to pick one of these overlooked cities to move to—were it for lower cost of living, community vibe, or hidden cultural attractions—what kind of factors would matter most to you? And do you think moving beyond the major hubs could lead to a richer, more grounded lifestyle?

Whole foods are sourced by the same resources as regular grocery stores, just priced more. Its not like a farmers market, not a good one.

Most of Arkansas is not a place to live. They passed a law to allow the homeless to take over your home n then you have to take them to court to get them out n in the mean time they sell everything in the home n could get to stay in your home. I live in Clay county n they us this to say they are crime free and its not true at all. Piggott Arkansas has been on a curfew since the last ice storm in 2009. There's no jobs here either because drugs are that big of a problem

Please note, the locals refer to VAB, Norfolk, Hampton, Chesapeake and Newport News as Hampton Roads and/or Tidewater.

Having lived in Virginia Beach for 10 years, I can't agree with you about it having friendly neighborhoods. I found quite the contrary. The military has a huge presence with people being constantly being transferred in and out. No one seemed to stay long enough to care about neighborhood interactions. In addition, the locals mostly go to the Outer Banks for vacation because of the deplorrable behaviors at the Virginia Beach Oceanfront. Past the Oceanfront, Virginia Beach is just suburban sprawl with a lot of cheaply built homes and big price tags. I retired while there and couldn't wait to get out. It's a boring as hell.
