The $ + moving fatigue.

I'm waiting on the St. George issue to be finalized one way or the other before making a big change.

Left in May of 2016 for work, and genuinely enjoy Houston. If not for Family in BR I wouldn't remotely consider moving back.

Probably will with the tight family we have but it will be hard. Would much rather move to St George. The schools not being a dumpster fire here in Houston is a massive perk. And seeing tax dollars accomplish something... And road construction that finishes...

I have several friends who are doing the same. They've held off on buying a home until they see how things play out. If St. George happens and Broome is forced to raise taxes to offset the lost revenue, things will get interesting.

My folks want to stay in BR until my dad retires in less than 2 years. After that, they said they may move to Texas to be closer to me, or to Georgia, where my sister and her family live. I had a job opportunity in BR last year and was seriously considering moving home.
