Hey all,

Thanks for having me. As my handle suggests, I live somewhere in Illinois and am up to here with all the corruption and the disappointing elections. Rather than spend several paragraphs complaining, I rather get some handy intel on North Dakota from people that live or lived here. I'm leaning towards the town of Williston.

* I know the winters are seriously brutal, any advice on handling the cold's effect on your car? I've heard of stories of people dying in the nasty snowstorms from being stranded in the middle of nowhere.
* Is it fairly easy to get a job here? How about an apartment? I know about oil fields work and am not into it.
* Are the people generally conservative/libertarian? Last thing I want is dealing with stupid "enlightened" liberals. This might be one of the few states left in America that is safe from the liberal agenda. I'm frankly worried about post Trump 2024.
* Any other pointers on relocating into North Dakota?
