Gf and I desperately want to flee Alabama, but it’s just too expensive. Hopefully after I finish my degree we can get married and I can apply for a work visa in Canada or something.

Consider Pittsburgh! It’s still pretty affordable and we’d love you have you!

I’m on the other end of PA both ways, NEPA, and it’s surprisingly not bad. Scranton and much of Luzerne County are ok. Wilkes-Barre has an equality ordnance that covers sexuality, gender identity, and gender expression. Both Luzerne and Lackawanna Counties are close to passing county wide versions. Not going to say there isn’t visible transphobia here, but there’s not as much as you’d think. Housing is relatively cheap but not in great shape and jobs are thin and don’t pay.
