The many members of our extended family who live from SFO all the way up to Santa Rosa, and south, to the Half Moon Bay area, as BG mentioned, have all have been watching this show for years.

The general area has always been a desirable place to live, but, as we all know, the tech boom has definitely fueled a new level of real estate insanity.

It’s a very difficult situation for many people who simply want to work or retire there. At this point, there is no indication things will change in the near future, and I understand their concerns not only for themselves, but for their children.

Personally, we prefer SoCal over the Bay Area for many reasons, even on days like this when the temp at the beach is 89 degrees.
