@polygeek we live in Utah now which has water challenges and wildfire risks. Wanted a place to retire where water was plentiful and the temp was moderate.

@kswilcox Good call. Utah may become virtually abandoned.

I live outside Asheville, NC. I didn't choose A'ville for climate change reasons but turns out it was a wise choice. Moderate temperatures, plentiful water, and inexpensive land. I'm really happy I ended up here. I hope you find the same in OR. The PacNW is absolutely amazing.
