I'm from California, but have lived the last 20 years on the west side of Oahu, Hawaii, and I am seriously thinking about relocating my family and me to eastern Nebraska (Papillion and Gretna seem nice). Being stuck on a rock and hanging out at the beach is whimsical for about a month or so. But after that, the ridiculously high cost of everything, the heat, and the constant flow of tourists wear on you. I had an aunt and uncle who lived not so far from you in a small farming town called Madison, Minnesota. I visited for a week about 40 years ago when I was 11, and I loved it. It was just a vibe, a good vibe, that I couldn't put my finger, but one that I find myself seeking again at the age of 53. I think that the whole area has a missing piece to make the puzzle whole and that I would like to find.

After 42 years the best thing I can say about Omaha is that is has suffered through a decades long identity crisis. It’s like it wants to be a big, attractive city... but it also wants to be the best place to raise a family... and it can’t come to grips with the fact those things aren’t mutually exclusive. The citizens can’t seem to accept that “family” and “culture” can exist in the same city. Its location and layout don’t satisfy outdoor enthusiasts. Omaha doesn’t do or build or keep or maintain any of the things that would make it a big attractive city... like theme parks or large companies or sports teams. It passes much of its tax breaks to out of state developers and then allows the same developers to tax its developments... a double whammy on the working class. Omaha will spend disproportionate amounts of energy to punish recreational marijuana use, or prevent a strip club from opening. At the same time it won’t lift a finger to correct the decades long dilapidation of 72nd and Dodge until it’s forced to accept the terms of a ruthless developer. It’s fantastically stupid.

I moved here 10yrs ago from the Left Coast (SoCal). Nice folks, polite traffic (Everyone was doing the speed limit... 10yrs ago, not now though). It took me 1 1/2 yrs to figure out where I was, whenever I went out. I'm used to Sun, & Mountains for guidance. Sun is not represented much. My immediate faves were; • Unique Coffee houses & Bars. In SoCal uniqueness in both is a rarity. I like the Weather; Coming from SoCal, that was the most boring part of day to day. When it snows, I gleefully go out and shovel, cuz I love to ski, and in my mind, that makes me think I'll be doing some skiing soon. 5150 in Calif law code, also name of 1986 Van Halen album. • Cost of living is better than many other areas. Way better than either coast. Not faves; • Driving at night in wet or snowy weather. Forget staying in a lane, where's the f'ing road??? I do greatly miss Raised Lane Reflectors. Are extremely useful, but I understand how they're not easily managed here. However I have seen a small amount out west of O in the country. Road signs do not seem to be well placed. • Driving to Des Moines puts me to sleep. Thanks for the vid Tyler.

I grew up in California and while I miss the beach and the endless number of times spent there with friends, my sons and daughters, and just by myself (I really love the beach) I can live without it so I don't have to deal with everything else that goes with it in California. I don't care at all about night life. I could care less about professional sports, and I was way done with theme parks years ago. The thought of not having to put up with any of that is what really makes me love the idea of Nebraska! Worst things about Nebraska? BEST!

I relocated here from Boston MA about 4 years ago after finishing time in the Air Force, and I gotta say...I think I'm way overdue for a change of scenery. I don't disagree that it is probably one of the most peaceful places to raise a family. I personally would recommend against any young professionals moving here alone as I feel Omaha is more for families. As far as people being on the nicer side, I can agree also. Coming from the East Coast, people in the Midwest have been relatively nicer on a more surface level I feel compared to people I've met in the South that invite you to their home shortly after meeting you (pandemic aside this is just my experience). The food scene is rather comical with mainly chain restaurants you can find anywhere, and as far as things to do, I can find not a whole lot after have been to the Zoo enough times throughout the years. I guess I can't find much since I couldn't care less about college sports. Did my 4 years at UNO and felt as I probably would have had a completely more positive experience if I had gone in as a traditional student rather than a Veteran slightly older than many in my classes. Tried to volunteer and participate in as many programs as I could find while in school. Anyway sorry for the mini-rant, great video!

I have been considering relocating to Boulder or Denver yet my friends are screaming inside, worried about me moving to a liberal stronghold before the next set of riots or worse .. I prefer being in a more freedom oriented part of the USA that declines from pushing injections, suffocation, sex changes for children or making white people feel guilty for their skin color. I have no idea what Colorado is like. ..... Also Colorado seems financially inaccessible for most people .. I want to live somewhere walkable and where other people also like to be outdoors where I am not the only one in all weather.

It doesn't hasn't snowed as much as it has this winter every year. We have had more snow storms this year. We do not get as many tornados as you 🤔 think. How long has this guy here?

[@Tyler_Bundy]

My whole life😜. Many of the Tornadoes we don't hear about and i referenced it as a minor point. Also my comment in the video mentioned that most of the time there is no snow on the ground but is very cold, but when it does snow it can go all out!

Heyyy just found your channel. I'm also a KZbinr in Omaha and this freaking cold weather is ridiculous. I just went live on my channel earlier, discussing the forced power outages for today and tomorrow. And it's supposed to be -20 degrees tonight. Ugggghhh But I luvvvvvvv luvvvvv luvvvvv Omaha. We have the good and the bad like anywhere else. But I'm born and raised here. I might not retire here, but it'll always be my home.

The weather is one of the things I enjoy about Omaha. Having lived in CA for a while I found I really missed the seasons when everyday was about the same in terms of weather and season.

So funny because I’m from California and i just moved to Omaha. California weather is what I miss most lol

[@tmac9972]

If you are an older person I understand that the weather can suck but if you are a younger person under the age of 60 their is no reason why you can't enjoy living somewhere like Nebraska. As for the other crap people are starting to realize that cheaper housing food gas and the amenities of living a good live are more important than the so called cool urban large cities, and besides everyone sits around watching net flix video games and all the other bull sh*t social media crap these days, I'm pretty sure Nebraska has internet service.

Moving south next year. Not because of the winters but because of property taxes. Where does l that money go? I feel like I'm paying for someone else's early retirement while I slave away until 66. Also not much to see in Omaha except a sea of suburbs and tons of vacant property. Anyway on the bright side Omaha is easy to get around in.

I am the fourth of six generations of John Hansens that are in Douglas County. (The three older generations are buried in Mount Hope Cemetery on Military Rd.) I graduated from Westside and my grandkids are in Millard district. I have spend 14 years living abroad and in the last few years returned to Omaha metro. I have also lived in different parts of the country- PA, MO, TX, SD, etc. I would suggest that even though you are a Nebraska realtor that you consider sharing some of the housing and lifestyle options on the Iowa side of the river with people moving to the metro area. If folks are working downtown, the commute from Iowa is quicker and they will also have their back to the sun instead of in their eyes... The taxes are also MUCH cheaper in Iowa. CB, Glenwood, Treynor, Crescent, etc can offer fun options with the bluffs that are ALMOST mountains for fun and hiking....

Many drive sedan's as the roads are plowed in the winter. Front wheel drive will be helpful. If work will be downtown then and your looking to rent there are several options that will be close. If you looking to buy please find my info in the description and let's talk more... Buying a house is a little more involved and I'm happy to give you some guidance.

[@maxschmelzer1690]

Yes it's cold here..... The WHOLE Midwest is cold! I grew up in Chicago for 29 years. Is F ing cold and windy there too! You want warm, move to Arizona! Omaha is different, yes. But really, what do you get in a big city? Crime....gridlock traffic....high prices for EVERYTHING? A night out is like a whole paycheck in Chicago! Honestly, you just need to get creative here! Enjoy the simple things! Go for a drive in the country. Go take in the sites downtown. Yes there is not tons of things to do. But there's also a bunch of neat little things I bet you've never seen. I think there's simply some really neat old buildings downtown. I enjoy walking by all the shops. There are some awesome bars, restaurants and breweries which are WAY more affordable for a night out than Chicago. Apartment living is very fair. Seems like a lot of good jobs out here. Possibly a little limited but oh well. Tons of concert venues to go to. Get some outdoor hobbies for the summer and some indoor hobbies for the winter. Trails, camping, tons of state parks! Things I don't like: the drivers SUCK. Just horrible. Although rush hour is nothing compared to Chicago! Second, I always enjoyed good bread and lunch meat in Chicago. Well, it's very plain here..... White bread and turkey.... But on the other side, there is some good ethnic food. Seems like Mexican food is big around here. I've seen people talk a lot about the sushi places here too . Life is what you make it. If you are the type of person who needs to be in a big city, don't move here.... If you can find interest in the small things and make your own fun, it's great. For me, it's a breath of fresh air compared to Chicago

Been here for about 4 and a half years. It's been okay, but I'm looking to move to Texas at the end of April/ first of May. I support TEXIT and want to be a part of 'something'.

[@markclifford8764]

Looking at either Dallas or San Antonio... I've been to both and had great experiences. Dallas for medical reasons and San Antonio because it's kinda rustic and had a great vibe! I wish there were more things anchoring me to Omaha, but I think it's time to go again. One last thing, I am a Notary Signing Agent but need a car. The housing market it 'ok' in Omaha, but it's exploding in Texas! Lower income tax, high volume of home buyers... It just makes sense!

I am relieved to hear that the number 1 reason wasn't because I live here lol . One of the reasons that I I hate it here is because like anywhere else you live a lot of the people are rude but other than that it is probably the #1 safest place in the usa to live . One of the problems with moving here from another state is that you are considered an outsider. That is more of a high school thing but a lot of adults have not grown out of it . It is not just Nebraska it is Iowa too .

Now I’m a homeowner here in Omaha House valued about 180K. His property taxes are not even a 10th of my property taxes. I’m 100% service-connected disabled vet. The VA hospital here in Omaha is what keeps me here. Our VA hospital is a learning hospital. Omaha Nebraska we have some of the best medical colleges around. I’ve heard the horror stories of veterans coming here to see their children. Getting treated for something that they are on a waiting list for another few years at their local VA. Now I do think we need to change our state motto from “ it’s a good life” to “ still under construction”
