As someone who has backyard chickens and has tried raising meat chickens, they are pretty close with the current ones. Regular egg laying chickens don’t have a lot going on upstairs but you can still see them finding (relatively) creative ways to scavenge food and stay safe. Meat chickens just stand there. They can barely move or react to anything. One step above catatonic. They were treated well and given good living situations, but I had to put them out of their misery because they would overeat and had leg problems. It was spooky and sad at the same time.

Pennsylvania has plenty too. Yes you will have to commute or work from home, but often that’s life here in the states. Yes we are being outpriced and our quality of life is trending down, but there is still housing for those trying to get by with tempered expectations. I’d rather move to Mississippi and own something than rent my whole life, but that’s just me.

You can still find sub 50k homes, but you will have to temper your expectations for the area and condition. Can’t be afraid to learn a few renovation tricks and get your hands dirty!

This is an unpopular take, but that is reality. It really is affordable out here! If you want more income, learn to repair reliable japanese beaters and commute a little. It’s less busy than the city, and it may bore some, but it keeps the bills paid, the kids fed, and the 401k growing.

Mullvad disabled port forwarding. Bad for torrents. That was when everyone I know stopped using it.
