You screwed up somewhere man. Unless you work online or remotely or something, there isn't anything here for you to do. You have no opportunities, you have no job. There are no jobs for you in a place like this, you either make your own work and start a business or you work online.

If those options ever fall through then you'll find out quick how horrible it is to not be able to just get a regular damn job.

It's 71k because it's a dead coal town. Your post proves nothing and you've wasted everyone's time. There are places like this in every single state of the union and if you were going to work online or start your own business and be successful at it, I wouldn't experiment with those options in a place like this, where if you screw up and it doesn't work out- you've dug yourself a mighty deep hole.

More than likely, maybe 30-40% of that town economy is actually producing goods and services. Let's talk for a moment about distance from goods and services, unless you're a well read homesteader, I'm guessing you're going to be calling people for certain trade projects on your house- or maybe even some simple repairs. While not necessary, it is beneficial to be near other people who can do things that you can't and would take your money to do those things for you. It's kind of the basic concept of why people congregate in cities in the first place.

So OP thinks that it's wise to put yourself in a place that is devoid of goods and services, which also means it's devoid of economic opportunity.

Let me tell you something, I'm from a place where the main economic engine was agriculture. Guess what, it was agriculture 60-70 years ago when my grandfather went to high school there. It will be agriculture 60-70 years from now because the market and government regulations altering the behavior of the market have agreed that the only thing worth investing in, in my home town, is agriculture.

That city still had 16,000 people in it. The city OP posted has a population of like 700 something. There is nothing there. There is probably a motel, a church and a 7/11 or something. That's the fucking industry. Your economic opportunities in Bobtown likely consist of basing your marketable skills and business model into helping boomers fix their houses and their cars and your mortal enemy will be the 3-4 other guys in town who also do that.

Assuming you don't already have a successful remote work career or live off of your investments, etc.

Look man, posting cool shit from rural areas doesn't make living in them any more practical. If you're retired, live off of investments or work from home then you can have a grand life. No one is debating that. What we're debating here is that it's impractical.

The chances that you find a place in a town like that without having been born there, or without knowing the people there and growing up around them to have your opportunities handed to you, are infinitesimally low. You're not going to drop into town and be elected mayor, or have a business handed to you by one of the locals.

You're not going to be made manager at the local pub, it would be serious work and effort to get hired as the school fucking janitor. Unless there are economic engines humming, there is not opportunity and so for one of us anon's to move there and take advantage of the "low" (in comparison) real estate costs, we need a plan.

>live off passive investment income
>be retired
>work from home
>start a business that the locals want to actually utilize
>have a decent job lined up (fucking impossible in a place like this)

And by the way, the locals will look at you sideways. They will think you are weird, not that its a bad thing but you better find a church and hope that they accept weirdos from out of the area. It's impractical out of the aforementioned scenarios. Simple as that.

Obviously if it was financially feasible I would love to live in place like that. It's impractical, full stop.

I lived 30 minutes from a city with 100k people retard, there still weren't jobs. I had to go to a temp agency to find work. You could fill out hundreds of applications, it did no good, you would receive no interviews and no calls back and everything was minimum wage still anyway for what you could apply for.

Unless you built your entire life for many years around getting the required degree to get your foot in the door, you weren't getting shit in my hometown. The moment I moved to a major metropolitan area I never looked back, high paying entry level jobs exist where I am now.

Still enjoy low cost of living and cheap real estate because its an overall low cost of living state, with multiple major economic foundations which push forward many other engines of industry and I'm about 30 minutes away from the lake and 40 minutes away from the wilderness if I wanted to go there. (metro of roughly 600k people)

I just don't get why you people have to defend your way of life so hard. I came from a place very similar to Morgantown, it fucking sucked to have to immigrate upon turning 18 and finding out the job market there was ass and wasn't designed for the people who actually grow up and live there.

College is for stupid people. I thought I was supposed to be the liberal for suggesting people move into a decently sized metropolitan area. You're over here, like a complete fucking retard, suggesting people go to college. Everyone fucking goes to college dude, its like second high school. I'm not going to waste 4 years of my life and go into 100k in debt to go to the local 4 year university that most jobs were asking me to have done. A lot of them were asking for more, masters, doctorates, but at the very least a bachelors.

All so I could MAYBE get in a SINGLE industry that existed in reasonable commute of my parents house. I wasn't going to stay in the state anyway, because as you know it is a socialist hellscape. Why would I waste 4 years of my life and go into untenable debt so that I could apply for a job and then get told I have to volunteer again for several years before I could be hired?

Every job in the area was asking for equal years of experience in the field to the degree, bachelors would require 4 years experience, associates would require 2, but honestly hardly anyone was asking for associates so community college was out. That would have just been me getting fucking votech training again and hoping for the best, again.

Fuck all that.
And by the way, you knuckle dragging troglodyte, I mentioned that I pounded pavement. I pounded pavement in the appropriate professional attire, no less. I took care of my car. I made sure that I looked professional. I had gone through job search training at the job search center, that's what they fucking do. I learned how to build my resume and how to be employable.

I physically showed up to hundreds of businesses, properly dressed I wasn't stupid, I didn't just look at the internet you fucking retard.

EVERYTHING I APPLIED TO WAS FUCKING MINIMUM WAGE YOU IDIOT.
