start by checking trapping regs. once you have that lined out look for ways to earn. look at real estate prices. a lot of people used to not driving more than 15-20 miles to get to drs and big stores cant adjust to not having that convenience. so you may want to look at living in a bigger town stead of one with only a gas station/convenience store, bar and a ranch supply.

Usually I'd say NM but it's going downhill fast I have been wanting to look into taking my boys elk hunt there. They are 9 and 11.

Of the places I've been, Southeast Wyoming would be high on the list. Awesome deer, antelope and elk hunting. Good trapping areas and fishing opportunities. Good people, based on the limited interactions we had with locals. Could be a tough area to make a living, depending on your skills. Might want to bring your own $$$.

Good advice Danny. If you’re not used to driving 140 mile round trip to the big stores it can and will cause problems with family. I’ve never known any different so no big deal to me. I’ve seen it not work out so well for families that moved here from the big city. Kansas is a great place to raise a family and great for outdoor loving folks.

You better bring $$$ if you're looking at buying anything in Idaho or Utah. Real estate prices are through the roof and wages aren't close to keeping up. The liberal invasion is really ruining this place in a hurry. People think with all this public land that hunting pressure should be low. False. Access points are limited and it gets busy in a lot of areas. Cost of living out west is substantially higher than back east. I'm 3 hours from a Walmart or Costco. Hour and a half from any kind of fast food place. Everything is measured in hours, not miles.

The Achilles Heel of all the western states that meet the ideals of a conservative are their low population making it easy for them to fall victim to immigrants from California, who will ruin it quickly. Say that a little louder so they hear it. Boise will be the death of Idaho as it once was.
