My wife and I bought a house in May and my mom wanted us to move to Northwest Indiana due to how bad Illinois has become and how hard it will be to sell property in the coming years due to the tax increase to pay off all the debt the state has from a lack of a budget for nearly 2 years.

It has affected public education as well. The school district my wife teaches at relies on state money (she claims it is the only one outside of Chicago that does) and because of lack of budget and various debts the state owes there is not as much money for education. If things don't change shortly the district will have to shut down in February of 2018. If teachers want to stay past that they can but they just won't be paid. Now, granted this is the far southwest suburbs so it may not be exactly where the new amazon workers may live but it is still a reflection as the state as a whole.
