its a recipe for a failed state

2017-10-10 21:33:08 UTC  

in that case I submit Coeur D'Alene or Sandpoint as my suggestion

2017-10-10 21:33:55 UTC  

Sandpoint has 8000 residents, and an older population than Coeur D'Alene

2017-10-10 21:34:18 UTC  

I have 4 kids, one of the big things for me is to find a place where there are other young families

2017-10-10 21:34:21 UTC  

ive looked around Coeur D'Alene before, it looks like its mostly mountains, is there enough arable land there?

2017-10-10 21:34:37 UTC  

Yes, there's enough to work with for personal gardening

2017-10-10 21:34:43 UTC  

as far as large scale farming I'm not so sure

2017-10-10 21:36:07 UTC  
2017-10-10 21:36:07 UTC  

also that area looks like it is full of sparse suburbs or cottages

2017-10-10 21:36:33 UTC  

it's got population and demographic stats mapped for the years 1990, 2000, and 2010, to give you an idea of where the white population is growing

2017-10-10 21:36:33 UTC  

wow that map is awesome!

2017-10-10 21:36:45 UTC  

yeah it's really useful

2017-10-10 21:36:48 UTC  

Ive also considered Potlatch ID

2017-10-10 21:37:17 UTC  

land is really cheap

2017-10-10 21:37:43 UTC  

Potlatch is really, really low in population

2017-10-10 21:38:06 UTC  

and it might be too small for our people to find good work

2017-10-10 21:38:58 UTC  

that would be a good target if we wanted to take over completely

2017-10-10 21:40:52 UTC  

pop is 804, i dont expect anything near that many people to be with us

2017-10-10 21:42:04 UTC  

but if enough of our guys move out there and we get active politically, then yeah it could happen

2017-10-10 21:42:19 UTC  

but, again, the economic factor is limiting

2017-10-10 21:42:36 UTC  

so it's just something to think about

2017-10-10 21:43:06 UTC  

I think it would work best if we chose a decently sized city, and moved there or the surrounding lands

2017-10-10 21:43:45 UTC  

because for most people, it's a big deal to have access to good shopping and such

2017-10-10 21:44:13 UTC  

well being in a decent sized city pretty much defeats the purpose

2017-10-10 21:44:34 UTC  

its true

2017-10-10 21:44:43 UTC  

I think there are places that strike a good balance

2017-10-10 21:45:03 UTC  

and my hope is that most people will be somewhat self-sufficient

2017-10-10 21:45:53 UTC  

Maybe we can pick a specific small town next to one of these cities

2017-10-10 21:46:03 UTC  

like maybe a half hour or so away

2017-10-10 21:46:21 UTC  

so people could still commute if they want to

2017-10-10 21:46:58 UTC  

something like that

2017-10-10 21:47:05 UTC  

well potlatch is about 15 mils from Moscow ID

2017-10-10 21:47:43 UTC  

bingo... found it!

2017-10-10 21:47:46 UTC  

this is our home.

2017-10-10 21:47:47 UTC  

lol

2017-10-10 21:48:07 UTC  

it looks like its entirely sparse suburbs

2017-10-10 21:49:18 UTC  

and it doesnt looks like theres any farming going on there, probably for a good reason

2017-10-10 21:49:55 UTC  

another one we have considered is Mossy Rock WA

2017-10-10 21:50:04 UTC  

or any town in that valley
