When my wife and I grew up in LJ, there was no CV, or many of the places people now call home around San Diego.
At that time, (we’re in our 50’s) no one believed anyone would want to live “out in the “middle of nowhere”:) Of course, since then, times have changed, and “nowhere” became a great “somewhere.”
We’ve lived in a lot of places in the world, but when we lived in CV our kids loved it, and we loved the community, the friends we made, the schools, accessibility to I-5–without going too far north–shopping, etc., and, especially the beaches.
Even though we’ve now been in RSF for years, we couldn’t live without our super easy access to the TP or DM beaches and restaurants along the coast. It’s definitely all about personal choices, but for all of those reasons and more, I understand why people want to live in CV.
