OP where is your NORTH. It seems to me that none of the Northern States have the same winter. I have property in central NH and our winter is nothing like most of you describe. We rarely are shut in the house all day due to snow, we rarely have days without sun and we welcome snow because it brings MONEY into our State, it brings money into our tolls when people travel up to ski or to spend the weekend in their second homes.
So, does winter bother us, NO. There is nothing I cannot have delivered and I do not have to travel in bad weather. During the summer the weather is superb and we have AC when it gets too humid, so it really is all good.
However, I have neighbors in TV who have left Michigan and Wisconsin and describe miserable winters, so it comes down to which part of the North do you want to leave?
