Cost of housing has absolutely skyrocketed in blue states. I specifically settled down in Alabama because I have a 1400 sqft house 3 bed 2 ba for 550 bucks a month. Suburbs too. Moved away from my home state of California for exactly that reason

Yeah but now you have to live in Alabama

There are homes available in blue states for $100k, in the same place you can find them in Alabama.

Anywhere but a city.
