Florida, perhaps? After all, Jeb Bush ended up moving there later on!In OTL, George H. W. Bush moved his family to West Texas where he got a job in the oil industry. What if he either stays in New England or moves his family to a different state? Which potential other states could he have moved to with his family?

The oranges and/or citrus there? Indeed, maybe they can go into agriculture there.I don't know what would bring them to Florida that early though
Well, if Bush is still in Oil, he could move out to Alaska, California, or North Dakota. At one point he did live in California, though spent a lot of his time in Texas. His connections could lead him to a more permanent lodging in California, though you have to understand that Dresser Industries, the company Bush worked for, was Texas based. Zapata Oil, the company Bush co-founded, could get the drilling rights to somewhere outside of Texas (and in the process force Bush to move out to whichever state these rights were), though I don't know which areas the US Government was auctioning off and for what price.In OTL, George H.

Alaska has oil. Lots of oil. And that's what Bush worked in.Alaska?
So Bush becomes a male, less corrupt version of Sarah Palin in this TL?Alaska has oil. Lots of oil. And that's what Bush worked in.
Granted, it took until 1968 to discover, but an earlier discovery could lead to Bush taking part in the Oil Rush, exploiting his companies speciality in off-shore drilling.
