I moved from NY to the wonderful state of Florida five months ago. I moved partially because my brothers and I decided one of us had to be "in state" for our parents who are in their mid 70s, and partly because taxes made it impossible for me to own a home within 80 miles of my job.

I moved down and found an apartment less than 6 miles from my job. I ride my bike to work 3 times a week now. I fill my gas tank once every 2 weeks now, instead of twice a week. I am losing weight. I enjoy my commute, instead of dreading it.

When I buy my house, in 9 - 11 months, it will be within 12 miles of my job so I can continue to ride my bike to work. Does this qualify me as a crunchy-con?

Check out the link to Rod Dreher's piece I posted in the vanity article. I'd say if you agree with most of those points, you're a crunchy con ;-)
