My fiance and I moved to Columbus, OH from Boston for her postdoc. I was dreading the move initially because of typical east coast big city snobbery about the midwest, but have come to find that Columbus is actually very cool. There are very few things that I could do in Boston that are unavailable in Columbus and it's comical how much lower the cost of living is. I've also found that the people who are most dismissive of the idea of moving to the midwest have never even been there and have no idea what it's actually like (myself included). My only real gripe is the lack of public transit.

Elephanthead posted:There will be much more racism to deal with. Plus you already mentioned, Trump voters outnumber you 2 to 1. This really isn't true if you're living in a Big 10 college town or most midwestern cities. Yes there are a non-zero number of Trump supporters (unlike the Bay Area) but any urban area is going to skew heavily liberal like anywhere else.

Also, do not move to New Brunswick.
