Comments by "Orwellian Horseman of the Apocalypse" (@DennisMoore664) on "10 Shocking Truths Why People Won't Move to New Mexico" video.
Grew up in Santa Fe in the 70's and 80's then moved to Austin in the 90's and up to Colorado since then. I was thinking about retiring to Roswell or Las Cruces for the milder winters, but I'll probably stay up here if the summers do keep getting worse. I can always do the snow-bird thing after I retire - maybe sooner with the continued advances in telecommuting. I could move back to Texas now and keep my current job, but Austin is way too expensive these days and local property taxes helping make up for no State Income tax (along with higher sales tax) there jack-up the cost of housing and life in any place even halfway decent. I'm honestly surprised that as much as 80% of the state even has 100 MBPs internet service - that's pretty impressive for somewhere as rural and undeveloped as New Mexico.
