Fair enough! It's north to me, but not truly north, I do realize that. I don't want to go much further than there, though, so that I can still easily come down to visit family back home.
I know the cost is higher, but we have a budget of just under $1 million in cash, so we should be okay.
I'd just like access to a peaceful quiet forest and a cozy home. I'm a simple girl~ uwu
Yes and yes. I have a budget of around $1 million in cash, but I've been told it can be done in some areas for more like $800,000.
Fair enough! I have no real sense of the northern 90% of my own country, I'm embarrassed to say. XD
Would you mind elaborating on your remark about them being a bit more conservative? I realize that rural places tend to be more conservative by default, but I'm wondering whether that means center-right mind-your-own-business conservatives, or the kind that are a bit more... upfront.
Full disclosure, I'm trans and so is my wife, so it is indeed something we have to keep in mind.
I used to drive to Toronto every day, usually down University Ave, but sometimes down Bay St. I can tell you for free that traffic got much worse on University as a result of those bike lanes.
The destinations argument doesn't really work, since you can easily bike on the road for a short distance to get to where you're going, or have a short walk.
