When your SD friends hear about you moving, they’ll be surprised and act appropriately happy for you, while secretly feeling sorry for you because you “can’t afford to live in San Diego” (regardless of how much you actually make). [/quote]
I think you (and others) are being a little sensitive. Most people don’t think this about people who choose Temecula. However, I have heard from people who live in Temecula things like, “we’d love to live on the coast but we just couldn’t afford it.” Closer to the truth is that they can afford it; they just don’t like the type of house (or townhouse) it would be, so they accept the compromises for the house.
