The math does not add up in PB County unless my idea of a good paying job is completely wrong, which is possible. What's considered a "good" paying job these days? Anyone? I figger $100k would buy a lot of happiness but it seems a man needs to be in the $300-400k range to coast easy. I wonder how the homeless in San Francisco and NYC are ever going to be able to afford a home. Seems like they should be out in the sticks. Just look the other way please. Nothing to see there. These are just a few lost souls of a REAL inconvenient truth!

Reminds me of the Tally area. Lot's of folks live out in the surrounding counties and commute into Leon Co. (Wakulla, Gadsden, Liberty, Jefferson, Taylor, Thomas Co., GA) and drive sometimes more than 50-60 miles each way. Chiefland is only about 40 from Gainseville. Someone see's an opportunity for the future.

Out in the sticks, they'd have to work for food and maybe grow it themselves.

Some folks think we're the devil personified .
Especially those with a victim mentality from later generations.

I just tell them to go f--k themselves when I yell at them for letting their little ankle biting mutt piss on my lawn.
This is while I'm sitting on the deck, sipping my Weller 20 year old bourbon after working up a sweat watching the mobile carwash folks wash my pollution belching hot rod pickup in the driveway.
I add to their misery by covering the neighborhood in smoke from the pellet smoker as I prepare a brisket while blasting Gary Moore across the neighborhood.

Yeah I don't know when the shift occurred but at some point in the last 5 years millennials decides to place blame for everything on the boomers. The victim mentality plague.

We had a good run of things. Won't ever be another generation like us. Best cars best music. We had it all thanks to our parents.

Almost everyone lives in/on a location someone else didn't want to be built on. When I went to zoning for permission to build my house a neighbor showed up to voice his displeasure He actually told the zoning board that he didn’t want anything built there because he practiced his golf on the property. The zoning board actually laughed. Obviously my petition was passed
