I currently live in California, but it's literally impossible to afford to buy a house.

Where are some good places to move to? I was thinking about Washington State, but I'm not sure I could handle the snow.

You'll get used to them. Just remember to check if your tire profile is deep enough (4 mm), and slow down before curves + start accelerating halfway through them. And obviously keep more distance than usual.

Oh and always carry chains. Putting them on the tires isn't too hard, but try it once before (when your hands aren't cold and you aren't stressed). Most of the time you won't need them but when you do need them you really do.
