There is a pretty good 2nd Amendment shop up in Ostego.

My understanding is that training will be around 2 months, not including IOE. I assume we don’t get the actual weekends off, but are there many gaps or two day breaks in that footprint? I know the training is strenuous, so I don’t intend on doing anything too crazy, but perhaps bring the wife up for just one or two days to look around the area for rental houses. I’m not sure if it would be better to move before training, or afterwards, having to fit in the move as I start reserve.
If any of you have experience/advice with this, or suburb recommendations, please let me know!

Moved prior
Hey I moved prior to training to St. Paul, still alive and not bad. But I've lived in Seattle/Los Angeles...so if you want a crispy clean subhurb, then yes don't move to the cities...However its been fun for me and my fiancee living near Downtown Saint Paul!
I second doing the CBTs as early as possible and actually pay attention. Most of them are well done, and the systems, well thats your systems so take the time to learn as much as you can through the Aerosim (and write down questions for when class does start.)
Training was a great experience for me. As long as you show up and put in 100 percent 99 percent of the training staff will do the same for you!

Apartment Hunt
I have decided to move and not commute. I am now looking for places to live and the prices are higher than I thought. I’m budgeting on first-year pay and was wondering if anyone had any recommendations. I’m from Florida, so this will be my first real winter. Having said that, I’m trying to live close to the airport. I have found a place in Hudson, but that drive may get pretty long in the winter. Does anyone have any recommendations on a place to live up there? I’ve done a bunch of research, but nothing beats the referrals of the pilots who already live there. Thank you once again in advance. I truly appreciate anyone's insight, advice, and recommendations.
