If you wonered how the rich are living I guess you better come on out and check.(No I have not got the winning lotto ticket) Two weeks ago the where stats out San Luis Obispo county was the 7th most expence place to buy a house in the USA. Now this week some other thing has been in the news,we are the 4th most expence place to buy a house.

Now todays local newspaper has "County residence have highest US average loan debt". Which they put at $46,164 in the 4th quarter of 2018.

So now I am Confused

am living with the rich or the poor.

Well I always knew the broke Wink

folks always had fancier cars than I drove. And all the other trappings to make you think they are rich. Wink

But with all the magic Confused

numbers they came up with Maryland has cheap house prices. Confused

I would of never guessed that. LOL

I would of said Blair Ne were the mayor never gets any rest,or maybe Dakota with it 13 months of winter every year. LOL

Or maybe where ever Ted is cause his pretty is always needing more shoveling.

Well Ray, I'm in God's Country.....just across the river from MN and IA in La Crosse, WI. We have 7 rivers all join here and beautiful (we call em bluffs, others call em mountains), GORGEOUS scenery all year round, but fall is probably best. All four seasons, but summer is a little sultry because of the rivers and the humidity is usually around 80%.

But now with this new IDIOT (he PROVED IT) governor we got stuck with, I'm thinking of selling everything and moving someplace else. This guy is INSANE!! A TRUE DYED IN THE WOOL, IDJIT Liberal school teacher/STATE Superintendent for teachers, with NO brains nor common sense. Ain't gonna be able to live here no more, cause if he gets everthing he wants to give away,,,,,,,you GOTTA be RICH to live here,,,,,,,,,and I ain't!!
We are noted for our homeless........they come from all over the country to get here because of all the promised that the IDJITS have made. A home for every one of them. Free food, free heat, free,,,,,free,,,,

Should go back to "Only vote if you are a land owner and your taxes are paid up".

We've got rich and poor too, but there is a WIDE gap in between. But it IS God's Country. Take a ride up the River Road sometime and you'll see.....

I second Ted's motion... if I didn't live down here, I'd be up there... in the Driftless Area. Unfortunately, both Wisconsin and Minnesota are suffering from the condition he describes... governance is basically under whole control of the urban areas... City-states...

We live in the vacation land where everyone comes to canoe down the Mohican and the new governor we has wants to raise gas taxes $.28 a gallon to fix the highways, but that isn't the best part theys talking about building a couple of them new highways with no speed limit. If they has money for them I say forget them high speed highways and spend the money on the highways we already have. Real i want them to go after the EPA and get the good oil back in tar so the roads hold up better.

Welcome to MN - land of 10,000 lakes and 9,999 taxes but the Liberals have a idea for another tax . Same here former teacher here as govenor and Mpls and St Paul are both controlled by Dems and to prove it the murder rate in both is climbing daily with gang shootouts a common thing in inner city .
I kept tellig the boys after wife died a few years back the idea of South Dakota still lingers in my mind - of I am out of here !
Back years ago I wanted to buy property in Deadwood SD and wife said she would not even look at it - year later Deadwood got gambling - that property I was thinking about for $100,000 sold for $3 Million - so kept telling the wife she already spent a good sum of the first millions as I don't have it .
