When is a good time to move?

Years ago we moved back to our home town. I didn’t especially like it growing up but it’s a decent town and having two children with Sen, we have one set of parents here who have helped out. But I’m miserable. I’ve tried to meet people but it hasn’t been easy (both children with severe disabilities so we couldn’t attend toddler groups as they couldn’t cope - both now at specialist schools). I’ve asked my DH to consider a move back up north where I lived for several years before the kids. I don’t especially want to move now as kids are settled in education (one is soon to be into GCSEs). DH feels a place is a place. No real desire to move. Outside of the parents we have here we have no other support network. What happens if one person doesn’t want to move? Is it unreasonable to ask him to think about it? Raising my children has/is exhausting. I’ve given up my career and mentally I’m worn out (I know I chose to have children and I love them). I just feel that I should get a say when I’m unhappy. I wouldn’t be wanting to go to somewhere remote but a city which might have more opportunities than the nice market town in which we live. I feel I need more from a place I choose to live.
