My family and I moved from Michigan to Missouri, 35 miles East of West Plains, 'bout 3 years ago. I don't know what that fella is talking about snow and ice, shoot for 3 years we have had less than 10 days with snow on the ground combined, and maybe 30 days that even had frost on the ground. This year we had average temps in the 50's. Better make a decision soon, reason, 3 years ago I bought acreage at $1000/acre, people laughed said "stupid yankee, got any friends lookin' for land?". I said, "sure do", and a friend bought 5 or so acres for $6000 two years ago. Today I looked in the paper and found 20 or more lots between 20 and 50 acres, not one of them going for less than $1750/ac completely unimproved, where as I got mine with a well and power, so in the final analysis, I'm laughing my *ss off while receiving offers and looking for more land. So much for the money, for the most part the people are decent, economy is flat, jobs barely exist and it's 18 minutes to town on a good day, nothing open on Sunday except the 9.3 million churches strategically located on every single block. 50% of the people in this county are either retired or 'disabled'. Hope you find what you are looking for. Mike
