7 Reasons Why LGBTQ Folks Move to Red States | Queer Money Ep. 523

Queer Money®: How Gay People Do Money

• "Ewwww, I'd never live there"
• "WTF, that's a horrible place to live"
• "No way in hell!"

These are just a few of the comments we've gotten when we've highlighted blue cities in red states that are both affordable and LGBTQ+ friendly.

So, why would someone choose to stay in or move to a red state?

This is Queer Money episode 523, and today we're breaking down seven reasons that many LGBTQ+ folks and our allies have decided to either stay in or move to red states. With this episode, we hope to respond to the "gayla gays," gay-listers," and elitist folks in our community who deem many of these places as "unworthy" without considering some very real and very valid reasons queer folks live in these states.
