ONEIs It Convenient to
Work?
If jobs in your field
are in short supply
in the area you're
considering, it
might be better to
look elsewhere.

TWOIs There Public Transportation?
If you have a convenient
method of transportation,
solid roads might be all you
need. On the other hand, if
you don't have your own
car, public transportation
is a must in considering the
place you'll call home.

THREEWhat's Available in Your Area?
Do you need plenty of shopping
within a reasonable drive? Do
you need close access to medical
facilities that can handle a
specific medical condition? What
about parks or quality schools
for your kids? It's important to
look into all these details before
selecting the place you'll
ultimately call home.

FOURHow Much Maintenance
Can You Handle?A house, particularly one that
you own, will require a great
deal more maintenance than
an apartment or other rental
property. Do you have the
budget to hire someone if
something gets broken?
What about the skills to
handle basic maintenance on
your own?

Can You Get Back to
Nature?
F IVESome people prefer life in a
city: a high-population,
bustling streets, and plenty
of action. Others prefer a life
in the country, with great
landscapes and plenty of
land to explore. Whatever
your preference might be, be
sure to consider it carefully
before deciding where you're
going to live.
