So the work I do is 100% remote now. I moved to Southern California because of an industry that has in part moved to remote work. My only requirements are a temperate climate, nature access and hopefully a blue-ish state. Is there a place out there that makes sense financially? I’m hoping to buy a house less then 500k. I don’t need access to large cities as I honestly don’t do anything. The only requirement I can think of is access to solid internet as I stream full screen video for what I do.

I’m currently looking at Michigan and Virginia as options.

Yeah, I was thinking of areas like Enumclaw, Bonney Lake, and Puyallup. You can definitely get a (smaller) house for under 500k in those areas, but I'm not sure if it quite fits OP's political preference.

    I'm not even sure you could peg a political line on this area other than "meth." Also, for whatever reason, I always think of them as far southeast of Tacoma.

    Although, it can be argued if you want the political climate of those areas to change, people with different politics need to move there.

    However, I think that whole area is experiencing a huge influx of remote workers as well, as it is. Rents have been rising all over.
