I've been checking property in Maine, and the choice is amazing. And for what you get there compared to what we pay in the UK, its a relative bargain. (especially with the £/$ exchange rate)

So I have to ask, when you guys say, its not 'adult friendly' what are you saying? Are the police likely to come knocking on the door? Or is it just a case of keeping your head down, and getting on with your own business?

I'm not keen on Vegas, California, Texas etc. Been to these places many times and cant do the hot climate, although they were nice for a vacation. Hence ... Its got to be something like home

Final question, anyone recommend a good real estate site? The ones i checked seem to narrow you down to like 20 places at a time which takes forever when you havent got a clue which city (place) you actually want to look at.
If your thinking of Maine be prepared for LONG COLD winters with TONS of snow. winter in maine lasts from the middle of novemeber easy until middle to end of march. they even get snow into april.

I lived in Bath Me for 2 years. The winters are brutal and the summers can be VERY hot with tons of mosquitos

BUT it is very beautiful there and the cost of living is very reasonable

If your looking for a more moderate climate and decent cost of living look at the carolinas.
