So-Maca and I are off the pity party about our attempted move that went to hell in a handbasket.
I thought I'd go online and search for ideas on places to move, because we are no longer bound to the Idaho/Washington area. But-I can't freaking find anything worth a shit using google search. (I know-I'm internet illiterate) I wanted to work towards finding out where the most poly-friendly laws were, then within those-the most poly-friendly communities and then go from there. But I can't find shit. We're a poly-quad that lives together and we're "out", with 4 kids still at home. So it's pretty important that we not move somewhere that we're going to get a lot of harassment about raising kids with 4 adults in the home... Any suggestions?

Not sure about this, but San Francisco might be a good place to consider. (Earthquakes aside.)

Don't know about the laws here - that would take some research, but I have always felt, that at least here in the Los Angeles area, just about anything goes. Due to the large imigrant popluations and the crazy price of housing, it is not uncommon to have lots of adults and lots of kids living under one roof. Homeschooling is also pretty common.
Beware: Huge taxes and housing is astronomically expensive, not to mention insurance costs. |

I once read boston had one of the largest poly communities around. Might be worth looking at
according to my unscientific searching, WA seems to do ok as well for the community. Might be something there ![]() Vancouver or Victoria, but they are canadian cities ![]() |

Seattle has a large sex-positive community - great for poly & kinky people.
San Francisco, CA Vancouver, BC Victoria, BC New York. I think just about any of the major centres would be good. A link for you: http://www.lovemore.com/locallinks.php#wa

Vermont is pretty laid-back if you like a more rural setting and don't mind lots of snow in winter (and the winters are not as long or dark as they are in Alaska)
I'm not sure what you folks do for a living. That's something to consider when deciding on where to move. |

Yes Neon-it is a huge thing to consider also.
Maca is an electrician. GG is a Custodial Supervisor for the school district. Mimi is an office manager for the local office that handles state funded day care assistance to families in need. (I don't work-I homeschool the kids). Maca would prefer not to be IN a city-He'd prefer 5-20 acres of privacy. But for work purposes and open-minded socializing-close enough to drive to a city (1-2 hours) is a good plan. ![]() Don't mind snow-just need shorter winters (6-9 months is too much) and preferably warmer weather overall. ![]() I don't think California will happen. ![]() Would love to go to Canada, but I don't see that happening. How would one even DO that, move to Canada....

To move to Canada you would have to have a sponsor either through a job or personal sponsor who would be willing to support you for X-amount of time if you aren't working. This would require a visa or immigration papers AND passports for everyone. If any of you has a record, even a minor conviction, this could definitely affect whether that person would even be allowed across the border.
Toronto is poly, sex & kink positive as well, lol. Lots of luck finding a place to live that's warmer AND sunnier, lol. ![]()

LR, I highly recommend that you research Burlington, VT (and the surrounding area). The cost of living is not prohibitive, there is an airport, Lake Champlain, and it IS a "big city" by Vermont standards, but it is also a couple hours from Montreal, and about 5 hours from Boston. If you can find jobs there, I think you'd like it. That's a BIG "IF" though, in this economy.
BTW I don't live there - I live in Massachusetts, but I love Vermont. Last edited by NeonKaos; 12-02-2010 at 01:40 AM. |
