If you want the amenities, you are going to have to live in an area that is blue, purple, or moving purple. There is plenty of super red real estate to be had in the in-between places, but you'll be driving two hours+ to Target. We have a ton of land up in Red River County/Bowie County area in my family, that is in as red of an area politically as it gets. Of course it's also dirt-ass poor, methed up and there isn't a store that isn't a metal building and basically a $1 store within 100 miles. Enjoy.
Go to Idaho or Oklahoma. You'll be happier.
