I live in an affluent part of South Carolina. It’s become completely overrun with Trump assholes and degenerates. I don’t know how much longer I can take it. Where can we go?

I don’t want the bitter cold of the northeast or Chicago. I don’t want coastal California, it’s insufferable. What are my options? Why can’t we just be fucking normal?!

      Omaha is a lot less left-leaning in my experience. It’s very purple. Lincoln is solidly blue.

      I just recently purchased a house in Lincoln. Just quickly looking on Zillow for Omaha and home prices look to be very similar to what I was seeing here in Lincoln. Property taxes in Omaha are also a fair bit higher than Lincoln.

      There’s other stuff too, like lower crime rate in Lincoln, better/more parks, LPS being generally a lot better than OPS, etc.

      I guess it ultimately depends on what you’re after. If you want something more big city, then Omaha obviously has Lincoln beat. But for a more relaxed pace of life and for raising a family, Lincoln is where it’s at.
