milovany Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 I don't think you need four years of college though. I think it's just 45 credit hours (or meeting one of the other options to qualify). Ack! You're right. 45 credit hours -- either you or your husband. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DawnM Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 Yep, eastern Washington might be a good fit. We're on the western edge of eastern Washington, actually right in the center of the state. We're about two hours from Seattle traveling east on the interstate; I personally wouldn't go any further east because I need to be closer to the "big water" (Puget Sound and/or the ocean) and until you get to Spokane, which is about three hours away, it feels all sparse and deserty. Where I live, the population is about 18,000 with half that being from the state university here. The uni has an excellent music program (thus lots of opportunity for concerts and the like as well as lessons via programs or student teachers). It also has some great science programs for non-students. There are three community colleges sorta near here -- one 40-45 minutes away and two just over an hour away. There are places with more CC's on the west side, but then you fight the COL. The COL is quite a bit lower here than Seattle (!), but not as low as somewhere out in the middle of nowhere-eastern Washington. A house in our neighborhood -- 1960s rancher on two acres -- sold for about $200,000. There are both new and older houses in town in the $100's with major fixers under $100,000 (not many of those). Great, vibrant downtown (has been a "Distinctive Destination" with .... some organization whose name escapes me right now) with a lot of festivals held locally. Has been a "Tree City USA" for many years and we have lots of parks. This is a pretty area with mountains, rivers, lakes, hiking, boating, etc within short distances. Homeschooling in Washington is relatively easy; you do have to "qualify" by meeting one of four criteria (have a four-year degree, have the superintendent say it's okay for you to homeschool, take a class about homeschooling and one more that I can't remember). You have to notify the school district each year, but you don't have to turn any course work or curriculum plans in. You're supposed to test every year after 3rd grade. Ellens****g? We always stop for milkshakes on the way from Seattle to Spokane in Ellen***g if that is where you are. Dawn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alicia64 Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 Sounds like Greenville, SC, to me. Greenville sounds like a great idea. Areas in NC are very nice too although I don't know which ones would work well for your price point. Richmond, Virginia. Two acres of land? That's a tall order. Maybe with a commute. Maybe even look into Charlottesville although that may be pricey. Not sure. CA is not family-friendly at this point. Terrible drought, high taxes, high cost of living.

I looked around my area, even on the SC side since i live so close, and the only things around $100K were mobile homes or were very far out. I only looked in areas that were not considered bad neighborhoods as I doubt OP wants to live in a bad neighborhood. I don't know about townhouse, that might be a better possibility around here.

Everything I search for Western NY comes up for places with similar names in Virginia. Anyone have an opinion on Western NY?

Yep, which is 45 credit hours on a quarter system. So the equivalent of 1 year of college. Off hand, I don't know of any homeschoolers here who don't meet that requirement and have needed to use any of the other three options. It's not really much of a barrier.

milovany Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 ......but moses lake does have a cool water park..... ML does have a fancy-schmancy water park! But we actually prefer the small one in Quincy -- no crowds, lots of shade, you can take food in, and it's a lot cheaper. Our whole family of two adults and five kids will be $21.50 when we go in August, plus the snack bar stuff is reasonably priced, too. Okay, so it only has two slides and a mushroom feature spray thing on the zero-entry slide side -- and a full-sized swimming pool on the other side -- but did I mention no crowds? The longest you wait in a line is about three people, so maybe a minute's wait. I think the highest number of people we've ever seen there is about 60-75. We haul in lunch, snacks and drinks, drag a table over, lather on the sunscreen and settle in for the day. (Sometimes we head to Moses Lake for Kids Bowl Free in the evening.) But shhhh! Don't tell anyone else about the Quincy water park. It's a secret. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YaelAldrich Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 The academic world is very tough these days. I'm sorry to hear of the difficulties your husband has had in finding a good job. Many of my husband's best students are having to wait years before getting a good job. Have you considered looking at positions overseas (in foreign US-based institutions or foreign universities) in your husband's field? The benefit packages can be quite tempting and the pay is often better than stateside positions. The ex-pat lifestyle is fun after you get used to being out of your element. If he is in the hard sciences, he might consider the AAAS Science and Technology Fellowship. http://www.aaas.org/program/science-technology-policy-fellowships The program sends academics into government positions to help form policy. My husband did it for one year, learned a lot, helped form counter-terrorism policy. I believe this helped him get his new position. Good luck! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reflections Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 We lived in Va for about 8 years. While it's pretty. Has a mild climate. And northern Va has a lot to offer. One of the biggest downsides for us was taxes. Personal property tax to the tune of 60 to 150 per year per car right at Christmas time - the bill is due December 5th. And it has a state tax - and they require you to pay tax on all purchases you made out of the state of Va. Homeschool laws are pretty good. But you can't participate in the schools at all. And they do not recognized homeschool credits - so if you decide in 11th grade you want to go to high school, they'll put you in at 9th grade. I'm a Florida native, and I still love Florida. Homeschooling is very easy. Lots of things to do. Very hot in the summer. No state income tax. But I hate how they are paving over all the natural areas. I'm in North Dakota now. I know you said it's out because of the laws, but a lot has changed in very recent years. Used to be that if you didn't have a Bachelors degree or a teaching cert. they'd monitor you. Not so anymore. Now, if you have a high school diploma you can homeschool without the monitoring. You have to file a notice of intent every year and test in grades 4, 6, 8 and 10. If you or your spouse has a Bachelor's degree, you can opt out of the testing. The state that scares me is PA, followed closely by MD and CA. But that's an opinion that is not based on personal experience. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milovany Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 Isn't that their municipal pool? Yes, I think it is. (You can see it on the right side of the header on this page.) We went on a really hot 4th of July once and there were maybe 50 people there. There's just never been a crowd to speak of and we've gone 5-6 times (once a summer usually since it's just over an hour from here). I think the crowds head down to Moses Lake or over to Ephrata, leaving the smaller water park for the rest of us. Works for me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tsuga Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 Eastern WA/Eastern OR or Idaho? Spokane. Enumclaw. There are community colleges in almost every middle-sized town in WA and they're all hiring since the state just increased the budget a tiny bit. I don't know if Oregon has as many CCs as we do but it's lovely. It's a great place to live if you have a middle or low income and want to live simply. You don't have to live by the big cities. Eugene, Ashland... so many nice places. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Girls' Mom Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 Middle or East TN :) It checks off everything on your list. Plus, after two years residency, any of your high school graduates can get free CC for two years. Knoxville is a great area. Lots of the perks of a city, but easy to live farther out away from everything without being "far away". We live very rurally, but can get to downtown Knoxville in less than 20 minutes.

If he has only driven through on the interstate, he hasn't seen much of what Nebraska is. ;) The interstate is pretty boring. Lincoln has a lot for kids to do and I know there are opportunities there for violin lessons. They have a children's zoo, children's museum, Morrill Hall, active homeschool groups, and much more. There is a community college there, along with the University of Nebraska - Lincoln. Omaha would be larger. They have a children's museum, the Henry Doorley Zoo, and active homeschool groups there. Omaha has the University of Nebraska - Omaha. I'm not as familiar with Omaha, though. We live in the middle of the state. Kearney or Grand Island would be good options. Kearney has the University of Nebraska at Kearney and Grand Island has the community college. Kearney has a children's musuem. There are homeschool groups in this area too. I know children in this area too that play the violin. There must be lessons available somewhere. It's really not as flat as most people think it is. We've had a ton of rain this year, so the state is pretty green right now. There are acreages here and there are quite a few families living on one income. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ottakee Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 Have you looked at the greater Grand Rapids, MI area? There are many colleges and CC in GR and surrounding area. GR is a bigger city but not too bad. It has top notch medical care. You can easily find 2 acres reasonable within 30 minutes of GR or so. We are a bit west of GR and have Lake Michigan within a short distance, we have several great local, county and state parks within 5 miles that offer boating, hiking, horseback riding, skiing, kayaking, mountain biking, etc. Homeschooling in MI is easy. COL is pretty good. We do have winter. By the lake though we get a lot more snow than GR to the east. It is cloudy in the winter closer to the lake but sunnier the farther east you go in the state. Summer can be cool (like this past week) or HOT with temps over a 100 for a few days. We do have humidity. As to animals, about the worst we have are mosquitoes. There is one poisonous snake but it is very rare. A few rare black bears (more north), coyotes, deer, etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Canada? ;) I would *love* to live overseas for awhile and give the kids that chance. Why not? I shlep along four kids on these trips around the world. Homeschooling makes that easy. :) If you get a job, usually they will pay something to help your kids go to International school. You can ask to have that $$ go to homeschool materials or tutoring. We did that on a Fulbright. Apply and see what happens. You can always say no if you can't make it work. But if they want you, and they can make it worth your while, I'd do it in a heartbeat. You won't be living the true ex-pat lifestyle in academia (American Club membership paid, maids and nannies, BMWs and frequent vacations to exotic beaches), but depending on the country, you can be living it up and saving at the same time (we always take home money - from living/doing research in Tokyo, one of the most expensive places in the world to live). The pets thing can be harder but if expats can do it you can too. It does cost money though to put them in a kennel for several months if the country in question requires it. Keep your options open - that's my husband's motto for all hist students. Love from one academic wife to another! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
