    its crazy expensive here, no doubt about it. especially if you live somewhere like santa monica. its more affordable in the san fernando valley tho
    I lived in San Pedro area in the late 80's. It was expensive even then. I used to like driving PCH by Palos Verdes. Some rich ers out there.

    palos verdes has those snooty prep kids who spent their teenage years at expensive golf course types

    i personally like the SFV. yeah there are some "trashier" areas in the middle near reseda/winnetka arreas, but even thats not all that bad. its a much more calm area than the frantic/hectic downtown area. main issue is that everything is so ing spread out, so nothing is within walking distance of anything. but you can still find some nice upscale areas like calabasas, studio city. porter ranch used to be in a weird spot because you had big, nice houses but absolutely nothing to do in the immediate area. but lately they've started to build more attractions/restaurants and in the area to make it its own hub

    im moving to charlottesville next month though, so i'll see if the grass is greener

    No goalpost moving necessary. Austin has some cool spots, but the city is just too overpopulated with gots, such as yourself.

    I've always wanted to move to a town that size and find an old Craftsman to restore. Maybe when I retire.

    Best of luck on the house hunt.

    No state this rich should have the poverty issues it has. Plain and simple, the state Government is literally sitting on their hands in regards to any plans of action to the domestic poor. Ask about the foreign and undo ented poor and they've got a million words and lots of plans...that really don't cost them anything.

    Negligence is awful and is abuse. Promising support and help for others not in your sphere of influence while the ones you can immediately help are not receiving a fraction of the support and help is mind-boggling.

    The Carolinas are one of the coast lines superior to California. Actually, most of the NE coast up from the Carolinas is pretty gorgeous.

    Always enjoy your takes on California tbh I'm looking at it from the outside-in here in Texas.

    What the state government does and how it acts are TWO completely different things here. I got here in 09, right in the midst of the recession. Two things have improved in that time frame- state politicians' salaries and the legalization of pot (although street level is still cheaper and better if you got the plug).

    California is easy to sum up; filled with a lot of people who say something but don't ever act or behave that way.

    Their main answer to American poverty is "inequality".

    But they seem unable to see the entire picture - if you leave the back door open with consistent poor migrants

    So their policies usually fall squarely on: rich people are greedy and/or racist

    you say that but i visited LA 12 yrs ago and it was drastically different a couple months ago when i last visited. the key difference was piss, , and bums on all the sidewalks(even main roads) with tents. it wasn't that way last time i went out there. as well, last time no one proclaimed they were a socialist to me but back then i probably wouldn't have cared either way.
