Five reasons why I shouldn’t have moved to Midland-Odessa
I just moved to Midland 5 weeks ago. There is of course good and not so good everywhere
My personal top 5 reasons why I may have picked another area. You may have some thoughts on the subject?
1. Rent is ridiculous.
A. First time I ever had a landlord post a note on my door for a balance due of 1
penny.
2. A high percent of people living here aren't registered, like me. Say what they want,
a significantly higher population of men.
3. 16th hottest city in America. I may change my mind on the temperature come
January?
4. Somewhat tied to #1, the cost of living is unjustly high.
5. The water is barely drinkable.
I will stop there...for now.
