These U.S. Places Are Paying People To Move There
Ready for a change of scenery? Or maybe you just want $10,000 and a new mountain bike. Great! All you have to do is move to Northwest Arkansas. According to Travel + Leisure, the Northwest Arkansas Council is offering people big bucks to move there through its Life Works Here initiative.
Northwest Arkansas actually sounds like a good spot. It’s rated as one of the best places to live in the U.S. because of its low cost of living and outdoor activities. Hence, the mountain bike. Plus, Fayetteville is home to the University of Arkansas and Walmart is headquartered in nearby Bentonville. Both might offer opportunities for employment.
Officials say they are trying to capitalize on the fact that more employers are allowing people to work remotely. Other cities including Topeka, Kansas and Tulsa, Oklahoma launched similar initiatives this year. I’ve heard that Tulsa is one of America’s best-kept secrets.
If you could pick any place to move to right now, where would it be?
