Where does one move, where have people moved?

I've been telling friends and family for a while now that I want to move to Northern Virginia when my situation is more stable, buy a house or an apartment there because that's where my friends and family are in greatest concentration, it's affordable, close to DC and has a nice Asian community.

It's possible I might need to consider a backup option as well considering the political situation of this country, somewhere nice and safe like NZ or Canada but they unfortunately don't seem to care for people above a certain age threshold, a great loss for everybody involved.

Even in Virginia though, my original plan was to buy a large plot of land in the boonies with a house. Now that I've seen civilization there, I'm reconsidering. Need a nice plot of land to bring up bees and pigeons and do a bunch of projects, maybe mushrooms too, and possibly rent out a small place so there's always somebody looking at the place even when I'm traveling. And then buy a small 1-2 bedroom place in a more urban location, closer to friends and family, to crash during the weekends and go to during the festivals. To maintain the best balance of the rural and the urban.

Of course everything is out of my price range and there's not a chance in the world I'd find a partner willing and able to assist me in living this dream. A pity, nothing in the affordable range for a single man, what a loss.

Still one can dream.
