Zeigeist: Where would I go? Nowhere. I can afford to stay here for the weather, amenities, ocean, etc. But only because I sold my real estate investments in San Diego years ago and exchanged into real estate in other states.
There is another lengthy thread going, “Why I am leaving San Diego” with lots of dialogue about the nonmonetary reasons to pick a place to live. They are compelling to me, but only because I can afford it. Now if I were younger, had a family, expected to move into a high tax bracket or wanted to start a business, I’d be looking at business-friendly states that had a better economic future.
