That's what I was getting at. I believe that people who are renting and unemployed could so easily find a way to make it up here.
I spent almost 2 years looking for work in the Wausau area only 3 hours south of here. Found so little and what I did find was part time, minimum wage, and very inconsistant. Helping others in the construction industry helped me but even that was slowing down.
Up here, within 2 months I had found 2 jobs and several other potential ones. And none were at minimum wage.
