His car insurance rates also cut in half when he moved there. We would meet the criteria for a grant from the state for a house, so there's some extra cash there. I'm also hoping Crypto goes on another bull run by the time we get to Fall. I keep throwing cash at ETH while it's down. I looked into drawing on my 401k, but the plan through my employer doesn't allow it, unfortunately. 1 Quote Home Weather Station Stats for 2023 High - Satans Bunghole Lowest High - Not sure Low - I don't have the data Sub 40 highs - Not quite Sub-freezing highs - Try again Lows below 25 - You're joking Lows below 20 - No 2023 Snowfall - LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meridian is rated as one of the best cities to raise a family, and Nampa was the most fiscally responsible city in the country in 2019 or 2020 or something. But it's expanding like crazy there. It's changed a lot since I graduated in 2015, and not all for the better either.
