Wyoming! Move to Wyoming lads. Reconnect with nature and quiet. Towns near the Tetons. Jackson of course is crazy expensive, but the towns nearby are amazing. And the place is more progressive that you might think - for WY
> this mid-sized town dream exists Of course, but you should figure out what specifically you're looking for beyond what you've described. Do you care about tax implications? Are you planning to rent or own a home? Do you have friends or family in any of these areas? If you haven't traveled much I'd recommend doing it. This is the most accurate map breaking down regions in the United States in my opinion: https://i.r…

You don't. Gentrifying a place pretty inherently means removing at least some of the people who live there. Why would the people of a small town go for that? Unless you're planning on subsidising the existing residents' lives forever as rent goes up. If you have the money and influence to "gentrify" somewhere... just build a new planned community in the middle of nowhere. The US has plenty of nowhere.

I believe you about the billboard, but man, that is the blurriest picture and I can't make out a single word on that sign.

Not doubting that you saw a sign like that in the state, but what do racists in the Ozarks have to have to do with parent's business problems. Pretty bait-y.
Without a symphony/opera, theater, decent concert venue, and some art museums, life is going to get real boring, real fast. I did a stint in a cheap culture wasteland through covid. It may be economically cheaper but the toll it takes on your soul is real.
Just admit you hate “flyover country”.
My method sure hasn't worked very well... or has it? I was looking for cheap warehouse space to start a business in, and did a nation-wide search for the largest, cheapest building in the entire continental US. I found one that seemed too good to be true. a 220,000 sqft metal warehouse and office complex on 17 acres. I thought the price was a typo at $375k.The agent assured me that the price was correct, and I flew o…
Have you considered selling?

You might try Jonesboro, Fort Smith, or Hot Springs if you're looking for cheap nearby places. North Little Rock or someplace in NW Arkansas too would have more nearby amenities, albeit at higher (though still quite affordable nationally) prices.
