Pick a state

Depends on what you want out of life at this point. My idea could be different from yours.... Ideally if you are getting closer to retirement a consideration would be higher income taxes and less taxes on everything else. That's what I have read anyways.

Me personally. Minimal interaction with people and small town living. Cheese sandwiches and a place for my dog. Everything else is negotiable. But I don't try to impress people I don't know with money I don't have lol.....

Good point. I don’t either. That said, we’re in our mid 30s. 2 kids, one on the way. But starting to wonder if a fresh start some place new would take stress and drama off. Lots of family dynamics is making things unbearable at times here.
Personally, I want to go to Montana and really get away but that’s not likely to ever happen.
