kokoon Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 Don't do it. Norway is the shit. If I'd ever move to someplace else, it would be Norway. Oh, greetings from Barcelona, it's pretty nice here too :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
impakt Posted September 14, 2010 Author Share Posted September 14, 2010 While Norway certainly is a great country, I just want to experience something a bit different for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will only get better. It's already started. Buy a house downtown for next to nothing. Fix it up. Cost of living is really low, lots of buildings for sale. Buy a building and start a business. Lots of young adults are moving there and starting their own shit up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet, in spite of hints and threats from mayors and budget commissions, and in spite of common sense talk of bankruptcy, Detroit has not pulled the bankruptcy trigger. In a futile attempt to stave off the inevitable one last time, Mayor Bing's latest plan is to cutoff city services including road repairs, police patrols, street lights, and garbage collection in 20% of Detroit. Bing to Cede 20% of Detroit to Gangs and Homeless City officials suggest this will not shrink the size of the city. Perhaps it won't shrink Detroit on Google Maps. However, Bing's plan would effectively surrender 20% of the city to gangs and the homeless. Would you want to live in one of the gang war-zones that his plan would create? Would you want to live in a bordering neighborhood or in a bordering city? Regardless of your answer, Bing's plan cannot and will not work and I believe Detroit will, sometime in 2011, file for bankruptcy. If so, expect massive turmoil in municipal bonds." http://www.businessinsider.com/detroit-garbage-pickup-bankruptcy-2010-12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Iain C Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 i want to move to austin, texas... or maybe san francisco. somewhere where the winters aren't as harsh, the people are friendly, and the infrastructure's not totally shit. despite being the best city in europe and possibly the world, london is grinding me to dust this winter.

More than 20% of the city is abandoned. No one is there to complain about the lights or garbage pick-up. Bordering city? You mean Windsor? Metro Detroit is surrounded by suburbs and there is a rather large buffer zone of old factories and abandoned areas. I lived in Detroit for 5 years and never once encountered any kind of gang. Encountered plenty of homeless, none of which I would classify as violent or dangerous, many were mentally ill though so take that however you like. I'm not saying they aren't there, but it's not exactly Escape from New York. I'm not disputing the financial woes that Detroit has. Those are obvious. But these articles make it seem much worse. i want to move to austin, texas... or maybe san francisco. somewhere where the winters aren't as harsh, the people are friendly, and the infrastructure's not totally shit. despite being the best city in europe and possibly the world, london is grinding me to dust this winter.

Austin is much hotter than San Francisco. I can actually see what you mean—similar thing happened in Philadelphia last year. Proposed budget cuts included reducing trash pickup to bi-monthly practices in all of Philadelphia, along with closing down the fucking library (wat?!?!) Seemed like more of a call-to-action rather than immediate threat. edit: though that being said, I wouldn't say moving to Philadelphia's a worthwhile endeavor either.

Austin is much hotter than San Francisco. i know they're hardly comparable. but they're both more appealing than london. just want sunshine and smiles. i love this city 8 months of the year but winter kills me, each one gets worse. i'm in serious psychic anguish most of the time, like now.

SR4 Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 yeah, 72k is almost unknowable by most American standards. to put it in better terms, the average starting career salary is around 20-30k....and 30 is if you are very well-connected/incredibly lucky. land of opportunity? maybe. but don't expect to live too comfortably...
