I guess this thread sort of applies to the subforum. (:
We are looking for a small rental that will allow pets and is reasonably priced, which is naturally really, really hard to find.
My husband works full-time job and I work part-time as animal care tech, although I am looking either for a second PT job or a FT position in a clinic.
So basically we're looking to move out from his sister's house (we rent there) and get a place of our own, because now we can kindasorta afford it.
In any case, there's this small cottage that I absolutely fell in love with.

Click, provided that it's still available.
It's the stuff of dreams for an aspiring writer. It's literally on this pristine, quiet river with perfect spots for my husband to fly fish. You're smack-dab in the middle of the woods, surrounded by hiking trails and the Alsea falls. It's an Oregonian hidden gem, so luckily the Alsea and nearby Waldport are not really tourist traps like Newport or Sea Side.
But the commute is about 40 mins from his job, and about an hour and a half from mine.
Which wouldn't be so bad except winter is coming, and it's an old coastal highway. It's small and has sharp curves, plus the faded lines are nearly impossible to see in the dark and heavy coast fog.
Anyhow. How far would be you be willing to commute, and what conditions are you okay to drive in? Or do you bike 20 miles to work/school?
I would take public transit if I could! We carpool to save on gas and reduce our carbon footprint.
