This is a YouTube video titled "Life in a Low Cost of Living Area #doctor" containing a monologue or personal reflection recorded in early 2025. The speaker discusses the benefits of living in a rural Midwest area, highlighting low cost of living, strong community ties, and financial advantages related to their home and work environment. There is only one speaker sharing personal experiences and opinions.
I think it's the best way to live. Personally. My wife and I agree on that. We moved out here to an area in the Midwest where my sister's a dentist and her daughters can go to school with our kids. The cost of living is obviously very low in rural areas. The fulfillment of your job and appreciation in these communities is out of this world. The administrative overhead is practically non existent. You've got know, personal relationships with the CEOs of the small hospitals. And you really are such a contributing member of the team. Overall, financially, it works out great. The ratio of the pay to the cost of living really can't be beat. That house that we have, that $675,000 mortgage that gets us, what, 5,600 square feet and 46 acres and we're in forever home at this point.
