We did that for 8 years; moved down South for "cheaper" cost of living. Didn't turn out to be as much so, and we were always dreaming of "home." We sold both houses at a loss just to get back home. Ironically, my bills are less here than they were down South. Housing is a little more, but the rest of the bills are cheaper. Go figure.
