My parents grew up on farms in the Vandalia area,
and I spent a lot of time there as a pre-teen.

Now I live in NW Arkansas.

I'm south and slightly east of mt Vernon. I work for Continental Tire. I'd like to find that kind of job and payscale somewhere else and leave Illinois.

When looking at pay scales outside of IL, don't forget to factor in Taxes and other cost of living stuff. My father still lives in IL, and is always astonished at the differences in cost of living her in the Ozarks.
