Where's your house?
It's about 30 miles West of Portland, OR. I think the gas prices are killing our chances of selling to someone looking to get out of the city. We did the commute for 17 years, it got old after awhile.
We are now renting a townhouse in the city and I love it. I ride my bike to work, it takes 30 minutes each way.
There is quite a price difference between city living and country living. I'm sure we won't be able to buy a place for what we will sell ours for. It may cost us an extra year or so in the j@b market, but we both think it's worth it.
PS - there is suppose to be a spring salmon run on the little stream.
