I agree that if someone doesn’t like a particular place–they should definitely move–especially in CA–where many more will be passing through–just as many before them have.
Having lived all over the country and all over the world, IMO, there is no absolutely “perfect place,” when you factor in all of the elements. You just have to get as close as you can for your individual tastes–for us, that was RSF.
I think the level of life you are financially capable of living is also a factor, when it comes to your level of happiness in a given place.
If money’s no problem, you can pretty much find what you want anywhere you go, and, of course, the opposite it also true.
In the final analysis, everyone should just live wherever they want to live, and enjoy their lives.
