Squatters

Other than already owning the house in WA, why retire there? If you didn't have this house, would WA still be where you wanted to live the rest of your life?

My wife and I talk about where we want to live when we retire. Will we stay here or cash out and move somewhere with less traffic? It gets tricky when trying to figure out what we want that will make our lives better than what we have here. It's fun to talk about with so many options out there.

The PNW climate really agrees with me and life without the ever present threat of water rationing really appeals.

I’ve got the best tasting well water and no 3k annual SF East Bay EBMUD water/sewer bill for my 80 gpd usage.

One summer I decided to keep the back lawn lush running sprinklers 20 minutes twice a week and water/sewer bill for that month $450!

PSE Electricity is also a bargain compared to PGE but in California I got electricity covered with my self installed solar.

Something about salt water front living seeing the tide come in and out, eagles nesting at eye level and a salmon stream on property…

The property is fine… it’s people and government policies that can sour things.

You know there's probably a hundred people here rooting for you to pick up and move.
