I also think the pros out weigh the cons. If you can adjust to the pace of things. I personally love it here

The background music is too loud and distracting. Sorry, could t finish the video

Started living in Branson December 2019 until June 2021...came down to be in a new show! Covid killed that show......Everything he is saying is true!!! I lived in Vegas and it was a 24 hour city....living in Branson...everything dies around 8-9 pm

The same things can be said about the Lake of the Ozarks. Pay in general is low, which makes it hard to save money for the jobless periods. Some employers avoid unemployment claims by letting the workers work only one or 2 days per week, which results in tiny paychecks that don't even come close to covering your living expenses. Local business owners charge more money from the wealthy clients without sharing any of that premium with the employees. Some of the wealthy people moving there from high wage cities, or visiting their second home/mansion think they are superior to the low paid locals. I'm glad I escaped from there! I now live in a small town and I have a much better job!

Thank you for your informative video. God bless you.👍

We lived in Branson for a few years and Loved it!!!

What about work from home jobs like customer service remote wise those are some options to consider while living in Branson, Missouri.👍🙂

Con...the taxes

I'm good with all that..!

On the 'Simpsons ' Homer said Branson was like Las Vegas if it were being run by 'Ned Flanders ' Homer's 'churchy' next door neighbor. HAA,I always think of that when I hear 'Branson. 😅

Cole's is actually spelled Kohl's.

I remember staying at a motel that allowed dogs on the strip. Behind the motel people took there dogs out for potty breaks. Across the street were residential homes. Several had make shift lawn ornament tombstones. That said Here lies the last dog that pooped in my yard. I guess that is also a con.

Climate is it hot and humid is it cold in winter?

Another con is that, being in Missouri, Branson retirees will have to pay state tax on their Social Security. Yep - one of only about a dozen states that taxes Social Security, Missouri allows you to carry a gun nearly anywhere - but they’re gonna tax you for your retirement.

But Springfield has all of these. So what?🤷🏼

The only thing you need to avoid in Branson is churches who have plane pilots as leaders who don't observe this commandment from the bible: 6 In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, we command you, brothers and sisters, to keep away from every believer who is idle and disruptive and does not live according to the teaching[a] you received from us. 7 For you yourselves know how you ought to follow our example. We were not idle when we were with you, 8 nor did we eat anyone’s food without paying for it. On the contrary, we worked night and day, laboring and toiling so that we would not be a burden to any of you. 9 We did this, not because we do not have the right to such help, but in order to offer ourselves as a model for you to imitate. 10 For even when we were with you, we gave you this rule: “The one who is unwilling to work shall not eat.”... 14 Take special note of anyone who does not obey our instruction in this letter. Do not associate with them, in order that they may feel ashamed. 15 Yet do not regard them as an enemy, but warn them as you would a fellow believer.

If only Branson had a Lululemon, or Banana Republic Outlet, or Eddie Bauer Outlet, or a Gap, or maybe a Levi’s, or a Victoria Secret, or about 50 other retail clothing stores… How can you make this video and be so uninformed? I grew up there 30 years ago and the shopping was one of the biggest attractions to the area, and it is still. Also, the season ran up until Christmas then as it does now…. Maybe save the videos for people who have the ability to google “shopping in Branson” 😂

Perhaps you missed the point of this video from two years ago. Or, this comment is from several years ago. Many of those brands were popular years ago. Given the Internet and the availability of most major brands, I do not believe that shopping is one of the major attractions for any destination. Regardless, Branson does lack many common stores such as office supplies, furniture, etc.. thank you for watching my old videos though. Any type of engagement helps bump up the visibility. You should come back and visit Branson. A lot has changed in 30 years and we have many of the more popular brands now.

Your heading should be 5 pros and cons of living in Branson. I almost didn't watch due to the negative heading.
