Talk me out of moving to appalachia

>Cheap land
>based gun laws
>Lots of white people

It's a low income area but I've got ways of making money remotely. From what I understand, for what I pay in property taxes per year now would cover a decade of taxes there on 100 acres. What am I missing?

Fuck off, we're full.

this

Stay away we're full.
Overrated anyway... No jobs, bad health, absolutely shitty infrastructure, and nothing to do for miles. Seriously it's 27 miles just for me to get to the grocery store. Also some of the worst internet and cell coverage in the country.

It's like the 3rd world here you wouldn't like it.

Everyone here is retarded, so be prepared.

Going out there in September to look at some land to buy.

Currently in Iowa which has about the same amount to do. I just want lots of land and land being so fertile and shit here means that it's prohibitively expensive.

If you're serious about this, go there on a holiday first and see for yourself what Appelachia is like.

Which state?

If you think living around low income whites is going to be any better than living around low income blacks... you've got some hard lessons coming to you.

I've been through the area but, yeah I planned to take the wife and kids down to see how they'd like it. The wife seems on board, this city cuckery is too godamned much for me. I grew up in a small town that had woods and shit and we were always outside doing something. This city lot lifestyle is no way for kids to grow up.

come on, it's much better

I've been looking at Kentucky. It's a similar climate to what the family is used to and the land is beautiful.

Learn the pronunciation first:
Appa-LATCH-uh

This. I got crazy lucky and landed a job with the only factory in town. Making 20$ an hour is unheard of unless you commute 1hr+ to a city to work. Have to get satalite internet unless you live in town, mountains fuck cell signal, isolation is obvious in the people that live here. But if you never go out its not too bad.

Public schools in rural Kentucky a shit tho. You kids will transform into white trash.

I'm in West Virginia so I can't say much about Kentucky other than it's radically different depending on which half of the state you live in.

Ugly women with no asses, mental retardation, innawoods service is shitty. I don't see why anyone would want to go there, for any reason other than an afternoon hunt or hike, then you get the fuck out as fast as you can. The mountains of Afghanistan are probably equally as entertaining. Until there's a reason to develop the area, keep looking.

Shit, might be better than the alternative here. they're moving chicago niggers into our small cities here and I do not want my kids going to school with those feral nogs.

>no asses
the women here are obese as fuck, they are composed of 95% ass

Ill sell you a 1 br on 2 acres for 45k

place I plan on checking out on the WV side

Same here 20$ an hour working at a lumber mill. We were supposed get her fibre put through almost 10 years ago so I'm still stuck with laggy ass 100$ a month satellite. I thought this place was hell on Earth when I was a teenager but then I tried living New Orleans for a couple years... Boredom is alot better then niggers.

Not enough land, place I was looking at had 100 acres for 130 and change. I want to have a hickok45 kind of place.

Southern WV and North Eastern KY aren't bad places but there are literally no jobs and most areas if you go out to a store or something it's like going back in time to the early 80s.

Mountains are close together and high so not alot of low flat land if that's what you're looking for. And it's fucking humid as shit all year round.

yeah,the shitty internet would take some getting used to but I think we'd all be better off for it.

If I could build a castle out there for the cheap that might be the only reason I'd ever live there. I mean a legit, crusader-stronghold looking son ofa bitch.

Fair enough.
Youll never use 100 ac tho imo. Youll just be paying taxes on it and hosting pot growers and meth labs. Thats alot if brush to clear.

>humid as shit
deal breaker

Yeah. The local sporting good store has NIB first gen brass eagle pump paintball guns. Found a ps1 in box at a different store.

Yeah, fuck humidity. I'd rather pay more and move to Klamath Falls, Oregon.

I have a Ragnarok farm in W. Kentucky not Appalachia but super duper nice rolling property with free natural gas.. I am between Madisonville and the Ohio River/Indiana border.

I keep seeing that in ads, what's the deal with getting free NG?

imma find that property and squat there until it's mine. stay gone.

I grew up in Southern West Virginia and I honest to God did not have any fucking clue how good I had it there until I left. I've been in Commiefornia for going on 6 years now and there isn't a day I don't experience overwhelming gut wrenching homesickness. Though I won't move back to West Virginia most likely, I will move back to Appalachia in coming years. Likely eastern TN or Western NC.

Appalachia is God's country.

Don't be a fucking pussy. The spring and fall aren't that humid either. Summer can be a bit thick though.

Califag here, go ahead and flame me. It was 105 degrees here today in the Sierra foothills, but 15% humidity. My swamp cooler kept the interior of my singlewide in the low 70's all day.

Appa LACH a is beautiful country tho. Severely underrated and underappreciated by the rest of the US.

you have more than just bumfuck KY/WV to choose from user, PA is the best of everything.

I went with two friends to Fort Gay, WV to get a motorcycle last year. It was nuts. Real holler holes and shit. No joke. Rusted out shit and abandoned homes everywhere. But that was with Obungo. Coal is back with Trump maybe the region will prosper again.

It's like being in really small valleys everywhere. and by small i mean compared to the rockies. the appalatcha hills is some sturdy wet mountains. theres bodies out there you just know it by looking at the hills

North Georgia here. People are dumb as fuck mostly, but also honest. Cops can be real dicks if you aren't a known local. Good ole boys club in full effect. Public facilities are well kept because only whites use them. The accent can be hard to understand if you didn't grow up here, and many people find it ugly sounding. It's not the classy southern drawl, it's nasally and fast.

tfw live in the south, tfw flatlander...

This.
Carpetbaggers don't do well

>and nothing to do for miles

Not even family members??

I miss WV every day.

Farmer drilling for water hit gas. I looked at a place that had a small 3 barrel a day mini oil well on it but was worried about the EPA nosing about although it was very attractive and if there was a free gas supply I would've risked it. I am surprised that it would be in ads as usually this is a hush hush tidbit that you need get from a good broker...the gas has no odorant added to it so might be considered uninsurable.

I have it staffed year round and made sizable donations to the Sheriff. I caught someone posting turtles after I warned him off once and the second time I beat him into bloody snores and it was all taken care of.

I love north Georgia. I was just in Dawsonville yesterday, shot some sporting clays then had some top tier BBQ.

Read Hillbilly Elegy first.

Shows the good and bad, the difficulty you'll have being rootless there. A fair and forgiving -look.

Not the roads...they are fucking ox cart tier.

PA here. Don't ever go to wilkes-barre.

I moved to commiefornia, it was a mistake. I miss the mountains daily.

This
PA roads are seriously fucked. I popped the low-profiles on my benz twice. Now I rent a truck when I need to drive into Pa for business

this threads about appalachia, business trip experiences need not apply.

Thanks, just downloaded it

my family owns land and rental cabins in the mountains and the potato nigger clans that had moved into the hills a hundred years ago to mine coal and illegally brew shine burnt down two of the cabins and then burnt down one a second time. And the police are no help because if they mess with the hill people the station will get torched. still better than a concrete shithole full of niggers though

That guy is noting but an Uncle Tom and dancing monkey on morning shows. Also, Ski master race reporting in.

this.

We're all gonna make it, Mountaineer bro.

When I was young, I wanted nothing more than to get away from here, to move out and go my own way, to explore a big city and see the best life had to offer in our great country.

As I grew older, I realized I had known the best land in this great country for all my life, but I was too young and headstrong to see it. I live in Kentucky again, I love it here more than ever.

Quit making me feel. I want to go home so bad.

Hickok45 lives in central Tennessee

Fuck off we are full

Not necessarily, you've just got to look for either smaller acreages on less fertile land, or look for areas near wildlife preservations that qualify for the Conservation Reserve Program (Feds will pay you an annual stipend not to farm on it). You can still do low-impact subsistence farming on parts of the property, but you'll typically get a couple thousand bucks a year for not doing large-scale farming on it, which it doesn't sound like you're interested in anyways.

What part of the state are you living in?

I know that feel. I'm counting down the days till I finish grad school and can move back up to my homestate. I think a lot of people who grow up in more rural parts of the country grow up hating their home only to feel called back to it when they grow up.


Like a fuckin' salmon.
