Single with no kids, not very hard.
In a relationship with no kids, harder, but doable.
Married with kids—be awful and even more of a bitch the older they get, I would assume

Sell, move, rent. Pretty easy concept. After a year or so, buy in an area you’ve learned to prefer.
Most companies give big moving allowances and do all the work for you making it even easier.

I decided July 4th weekend to move to Houston. My last night in LA is Friday.
My situation is unique though and that's a big part of why I'm moving. No kids, no house, taking my job with me due to remote work right now.
I do see a layoff in my future though and I hedged my bet that if I'm going to get laid off, I'd rather be in Houston when it happens. I have enough saving to scrape by if the poo hits the fan and I'm laid off as soon as next week. Everything else is bonus after that.
It's a blind leap of faith though. Just signing a lease 6 hours away at an apartment complex I've never laid eyes on was nerve wracking.

He's leaving LA. It's still an upgrade.

I did it on a whim after graduating college with 500 bucks to my name and no job/offer in sight.
To this day the dumbest thing I did but it worked out. Where there’s a will there’s a way.

Finding a house isn’t too bad unless school systems come into play. The. It can be hard because you’re limited to a certain geographical area. That’s the hardest part.

If you have a house just rent for 6 months in new state.
Why do people act like living in a nice apartment for a few months while learn an area is trashy?

My company paid for the relocation, otherwise I would not have done it...

Found the guy who knows everything about places because he drove through on the interstate. If that’s the case then Louisiana is nothing but Refineries, swamps, floating trailer parks and litter.

After timing job changes, selling the house, and finding a new place to live how hard of a transition is this? Is this something I need half a year to plan?
