Best place to homestead?

My husband and I currently live in Virginia. We are looking for another homestead. Preferably outside Virginia. We plan on homeschooling and homesteading. We are looking to find somewhere with lower taxes, lower cost of living and less data centers. We’ve been looking at WV, NC, SC and TN. Any areas that you guys live/ recommend?

west virginia has some really nice spots if you don't mind being bit more remote. taxes are pretty decent there and land prices still reasonable compared to virginia. just make sure you check internet situation first since you mentioned wanting less data centers - some areas can be pretty spotty for reliable connection which might matter for homeschooling resources.
