Yup. Economy is definitely booming in ND, but so is the cost of living. Not sure where it all balances out, but CoL is certainly a consideration.

"A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law, would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."

I would trade living further away and the higher gas costs to live cheaper overall...but maybe that is just me...

There are ways to mitigate the COL...

Hell, bring your own small RV!

Oil field is still chugging along on the Gulf Coast, despite the administrations attempts to kill it.
