Homeschooling State Laws

I'm please to be a homeschooler in Wisconsin, a state with low regulations.  Each fall I am required to send the Department of Public Instruction an online form indicating my intentions to homeschool my children (designating their sex and grade level) a minimum of 875 hours in the subjects of reading, language arts, math, social studies, science and health.  And that's it.  Pretty painless. 

In addition, I do keep very through records of each day's activities, although this is more for my benefit than a requirement for the state.  Although you never do know, do you. 

What are your state's requirements?  Would you move to a different state to escape strict regulations?
