All of utah is just like moab. Nothing but rocks and desert. Everything else has burnt off. View from my porch this past summer.
Southern Indiana is where you want to move! The winters are mild we have only had one real snowfall this winter so far, just yesterday it was almost 60°. If you buy the Indiana deer bundle licence you can take a buck & two does or three does. There are also counties like Gibson, Vanderburgh & others that with a Urban licence you can take an additional four deer with bow, only one being a buck. Lots of public land to hunt the biggest being Hoosier National Forest (202,000 acres) & almost every county has a smaller public hunting area. Hoosier National Forest - Home There is one medium sized city close by (Evansville) that has lots of insurance co's. & quite a few IT businesses. There are also a few resale shops & flea markets if you are into buying & selling things. And since your wife is in risk management it should be easy to find the stats on living in southern Indiana as far as crime rate, taxes, & cost of living etc. Gibson county area has a lot of nice houses for sale right now.
went and looked at some land and a few homes in SW Ohio.. gonna have to pass, not a lot of bang for your buck and and property taxes are a tad higher then other states in this part of the country[except for IL]
