Alright, you are right, that may as well be FUD.
I will refine that:
You will need to demonstrate exemplary good cause, in some areas--as marshaul said, that is not so much the case.
Areas with particularly sympathetic and reasonable sherrifs, like Fresno, CA you will find it easy and straightforward to qualify and obtain a CCW.
There is a downside to moving to such a place, as they are particularly violent and there is a great risk you may need to use that CCW, other rural areas are safe, and provide CCWs with ease.
You will find, however, in some ruralareas that sherrifs are wary to provide CCW permits to newcomers, sort of a good old boy mentality, but this is not as pervasive as it might sound.
You will need to qualify, this costs money, and range time, but a competent shooter should not have great difficulties in excelling in the tests.
Your profile indicates you were born 11-20-1989, which would make you 20 years old. I know of only 1 case where a person under the age of 21 was granted a CCW. I believe it was some time ago in Madera, to a young deputy in training who had saved another officers' life.
An alternative, of course, is the great neutered right of unloaded open carry. IMO a worse option still would be locked unloaded concealed carry.
Now would be a good time to research your options and find out where it is you and your kin plan to move, we can probably help you more then.
