I’d think a fracture big enough to be a problem would be immediately apparent, but if it’s just a hairline, this probably isn’t clear enough to show it…

OTOH, if you’re around Portland, I know a super good podiatrist.

Sadly, I’m in Tennessee. But if you know of anything for 1000 a month or less I’ll move there tomorrow!

It can be done! Keep in mind too, I bet our wages are higher than TN too + no sales tax.

Wtaf, how are the prices in Portland better than in my little hick town in Tennessee? Jeeze

Just looked it up, and I’ll make almost exactly 3 more dollars an hour, too. Honestly, this is worth genuinely considering

One more thing, how concerned should I be about falling into the ocean if the cascades fault goes?

Ocean is about an hour away to the west, OTOH there’s a giant volcano an hour to the east.

Bonus, Portland has a dormant volcano inside city limits:

Maybe not falling into the ocean, but does the idea of earth quakes, like “the big one” ever freak you out? I’d imagine I’d get used to little ones pretty quick, but the society-collapsing earthquake built up in my brain is very scary! Lol

Also, contacted my work and asked about transferring out there. We might actually be doing this!

PM me if you come out! I know a great podiatrist! We actually just saw him today!

Earthquakes are infrequent. I’ve felt a couple. More of a deal if you’re at the coast because they have tsunami alarms. Feels like a big truck driving behind you.

Oh, and it’s always “the coast”, not “the beach”. People don’t really “go to the beach” like in California, LOL:
