Is now a bad time to move?
I'm trying to finally move out and escape this blue dot in a red sea (Kansas city, Kansas) and move to Portland, Oregon, but im starting to worry with the state of the world and country this could be a bad decision.
Unfortunately as a trans individual, Kansas just isn't feeling like a place i can safely continue to live in, and thats ignoring the fact that this place is a hell for me on a personal level. Im 23 and will be moving out alone for the first time and do not have any special qualifications or a degree, so i will be more likely than not just head above water in Portland. I have some familial support but they will only be able to do so much. I've tried my best to set myself up decently and after all moving expenses will have a few thousand in savings as a safety net but im starting to worry it won't be enough.
I want to move cause i know my wellbeing and potentially life could depend on it, but im scared that the state of the country and world will make this a terrible decision. I just want some thoughts from people who are likely smarter and more experienced in life, any help would be appreciated.
