I don’t live there anymore, but Reno NV has low taxes, the summers are warm, but not sweltering. The winters are somewhat chilly in the morning, but the low humidity seems to have a good effect on old joints. Real Estate is dirt cheap now. I also like Eastern Washington around Spokane. It is several degrees cooler than Reno, no state income tax, property taxes about average.
I went to WSU for grad school. Loved that area. I think I’d live over in Idaho though, even with the income tax. Too many atheists in western WA, one of the states with the lowest participation in *any* religion.
