I can ID with a lot of your feelings about places like California and Colorado being , not exactly what your looking for , to put it mildly. I can sense your overall anger and frustration with ****ing people. People talk about cleaning up the environment , yet they allow dirty , homeless , mostly junkies , to live on their streets. They allow crime to just run rampant and is destroying many , what used to be , nice cities. The thing is this , what your looking for is out there. You just have to find it. Commit yourself to finding it. Don't let the scumbags end up giving you a defeatist, depressed and angry mindset. Take some time to explore whatever options you have. ( BTW , I'm gonna be honest and tell you I'm 68 , a little over the threshold Lol.) I'm not gonna lie. Good luck on your journey.
