Call me cynical, but in Junior High I'd be thinking more about where the college/trade school is I'm hoping to get into someday or the state I'd be more likely to get a job in instead of where I can move to have reptiles. Seriously, the job market still is not going to be recovered by then no matter what people think.
On the other hand, maybe it isn't so cynical a statement because my state leaves specific herp laws to the cities. We move 5 miles and they ban all "boas" according to the law. Move to the next city over and it is just all exotics, which they define as lions and elephants.
Here is a good resource, not sure how up to date it is though... and I should point out they are against exotic pet ownership which overlaps with some reptiles, just FYI:
