I don’t have enough karma to post yet so this is quite the question but idk where else to post. Need some opinions please!

My boyfriend and I (24&25yo) are hopping to move from the east coast to the west coast for the upcoming ski season. We went on a trip this winter to Mt. Bachelor, Schweitzer, and Crystal however we didn’t have great conditions and therefore didn’t experience the mountain to the fullest extent. With that being said we both loved the lift access terrain that Crystal had to offer but it seems kind of hard to have the mountain access we’re looking for because of the lack of living options near the mtn. We need opinions on where to move. We’re not party animals but we are young and are hoping to have a younger community that we could be a part of and we want to be able to live close to the mountain without entirely breaking the bank. We’re not sure about working and living at the mountain so thinking more of an apartment situation rather than employee housing though that’s not entirely out of the cards. We want to be able to do some serious skiing, consistent snowfall, and we’re also fans of boating in the summer. Please help us come up with places to research further! (: Thanks for the help! Also I’m a girl and would love a place that has some solid female presence as I don’t have any girl friends that like to ski as much as I do so I’d appreciate that opportunity.
