Hello :)- As a former resident of Northern California for over 35 years, I left the state in 2011 and relocated to Las Vegas, Nevada which has unfortunately turned into a suburb of LA with all of their B*LL$H*T laws and cost of living!!! After 13 years of living here, I am completely over the cost of living and attitude!!!! As a rideshare driver for over 9.5 years now. I meet a lot of people from all over the country and world. I recently had passengers from Omaha and I have now focused on relocating to Omaha :)-

If you can, you should give us a visit. Check out the zoo, the Gene Leahy Mall, and the Old Market area, explore the different parts of town along with some of the surrounding suburbs. If you visit, let me know, and we can grab a coffee. We are not perfect, but we are worth a look. Best of luck, and thanks for the comment.

Im 22 and I've lived in Omaha and Bellevue for all of my life and honestly, its a great plave to live. As an mechanic with no college experience, I actually make enough to support my wife and daughter with my wife only working 3 days a week. I was in OPS all through elementary and BPS though middle and high and feel like they provided a great education with many extracurricular activities and a relatively safe environment. One thing I didnt know about was the radon and lead. Definitely something I have to keep an eye on in the future. Thank you for this very informative video.

Good balanced info. One caution about roofing companies. In Florida, home owners misused their hone owner's insurance by putting on new roofs on the advice of roofing companies. This led to excessive costs for insurance companies. Now, insurance companies won't insure you unless your roof is 5 years old or newer. This practice is starting to spread to other parts of the country.

I’ve always lived in major cities Orange County California, Dallas Texas, Chicago Illinois, and now Miami Florida, maybe that’s why when I went to Omaha for 4 months to work I hated it there so bad. It’s so small and boring, drivers are the worst would see crashed cars left and right, and the roads are terrible. Been to almost all 50 states and lots of different cities and I gotta say Omaha is forsure in my top 3 worst cities in the US. That’s why I always assumed it was so cheap to live there.

Omaha needs to get on the transit game! The ORBT is great, but needs expansions. LRT should be planned, and the street car expanded, as well as the ORBT to get new routes to the exburbs that commute heavily. Like Bellevue

As of 05/30/2024 The Governor ordered a special session of the Unicameral to attempt to drop property taxes by 40%. A home can't pass a VA inspection without a Radon detector. Violent crime is NOT a significant problem outside of South and North Omaha. Yes, we are sinking a ton of money into a streetcar money pit because Mutual of Omaha blackmailed the city into it. Is Omaha a good place to live, overall yes, just make sure you don't move into South or North Omaha.

Can someone help me to understand the vehicle registration taxes as well. In California we have to smog every other year and we pay registration every year which is about 300$ a year. These taxes seem to be more than car registration in California which is baffling to me considering Nebraska is supposed to be a cheaper state.

@drumline17 4 ай бұрын

They would be more than 300 for expensive, new cars. They would be less than 300 for the majority of cars. Mine (2013 car, 25k msrp) is about $60, for example
