I did the UT to NH thing in 1999 (by way of AZ). The further out you go, the cheaper it is. We started with a 3 bedroom rental in Hillsboro for 750. Won’t find that today.

But freedom wise, it’s the opposite of UT. No religious dictatorship and the state (mostly) leaves you alone as long as you pay your taxes. Property taxes are nuts compared to UT but no state or sales evens it out.
