Dogwalk: Nomadic Life Has Benefits

I’ve asked many people why they’ve chosen to stay in a particular place. Especially ones that are economically depressed. Places where making a move would improve their lives. It’s so beautiful is an answer. Or I’ve never had any desire to live any place else. What is lacking? Plain old curiosity. That’s what I don’t understand. No adventuresome spirit. When Kodak was dieing in Rochester, NY and jobs were available in operations in other cities, people would not move. I would guess it’s the same in any company town”. Like Detroit with the auto industry. Like northern Idaho with the demise of the timber industry/ Dogwalk Musings. More here.

Question: Would you move from the Inland Northwest if you or your spouse had a better job offer elsewhere?
