Good luck.
I moved out of Nebraska years ago because of the land taxes. Job forced us out too but I'm glad we settled where we are, MUCH cheaper to live here. In your case the move is understandable and respectable; completely different than ours.
Funny when I moved here we escaped the hustle and bustle of the city (Omaha). Moved to a town here that had about 18,000. MUCH smaller, more country. House had about an acre of land with it and 1400 behind it. City limit was the back fence of the yard. Walk out back, set up a deer stand, hunt to your heart's content. 12 years later the guy who owned all that who said he'd NEVER sell it, sold it, now there's a few thousand houses--all rentals and all owned by the city. Slums. What was once country and real nice & peaceful is now total opposite, the crap we moved away from. I moved again in 13, now back out in the sticks....neighbor closest to me is almost a mile but there is a vacant lot next to me that the owner says he's building a rental on (at 89 years old he'd be stupid to do so but whatever). If/when he starts building, I'm putting my place on the market and I'll do it again. I want to be able to walk out off the back porch in my underwear and take a leak without the neighbors watching. As I'm typing this I'm watching 4 deer graze in the front yard. The neighbors stopped in yesterday asking if I'd seen the bears yet. Nope. Not "yet". Apparently there's a few black bears hanging around according to them, wouldn't surprise me any.
Thought I wanted a place out in North central Nebraska but decided on the central south instead. Job related for one, but I had plenty of opportunities in both locations. I still have family out there, well all over Nebraska, Colorado, SD, and Iowa, although they rarely keep touch with this old redneck. Fine by me. I moved here with zero, I ain't got much now, and I'll leave this earth with the same thing I came here with so it's no big loss.
