Thanks for the clarification. Two of my coworkers went to college in Moscow in the early 2000's. I've been talking to both of them about the area (they are married with kids, and met each other in school, one was born/raised in Alaska and the other was born/raised in Boise). It's funny talking to them separately. They have very different memories of their college years living in Moscow...... I think it would be worth another drive through, and possibly spend a couple days there to get a feel for the place, before I make commitments I can't back away from.
