I was a Minnesota resident for more than a decade. I honestly don't mind experiencing cold weather, but seeing snow and sub-freezing temps from October to May does bad things to your psyche. The Summers are gorgeous - aside from the mosquitoes - and people are generally lovely. I wouldn't have relocated if winter was only three months long....

I bought a house a while back and did not have a radon test done.

I ended up moving in with my gf less than three years after that purchase and sold the house (for a small profit!). The buyer had a radon test performed and it found the need to install a mitigation system. It makes me wonder what sort of ill health effects I might have suffered if I had stayed in that house for decades...

I will definitely be doing radon testing for any future home purchases.
