South Florida is one of the few places I would consider moving to out of California, I went to Disney world and cape canaveral and had a good time in May when I was there, coco beach was OK but it seems to smell to me,

I like Fort Lauderdale or Miami much better, going down to the Key’s to snorkel is really good,

The one thing I noticed with all my so-workers at that time is they all had a boat they could take out on the ocean (not taking flat bottoms here), or a sea plane.
They all were divers as well and quite a few were pilots.

You got to love the ocean to live there it seems,

Compared to other cities, San Diego is a very large city (the distances are longer that LA) bisected by freeways, hills and canyons.

Because of that, people don’t drive to parts the city that they don’t frequent. I’m willing to be bet that the majority of people who live in Carmel Valley have never been to Encanto or South Park.

Other cities have long boulevards that cross the whole city, and you may have to drive through the city to get to places.

Dallas, Houston, Atlanta, Charlotte, Raleigh, Orlando, Tampa (where the weather is warm, the economy is good and growing, and the costs are lower) are good cities to raise a family on a comfortable middle class income.

Thanks for all the well wishes. sdrealtor we’ll have to have a beer for sure. I should probably watch a Cavs-Lakers NBA finals game with TG as well if the darned Magic don’t get in the way again.

My wife is in some ways getting a slight raise, and my pay decrease is minimal at best (from a cash flow perspective $130/month or so). Considering the State Income tax that is wiped out that is not much. I understand Car insurance will be higher, food will be higher, and possibly car registrations. Also another big one is not having access to Kaiser which has made health care pretty affordable. I’ll have medical it’s just going to cost more. Stay healthy.

I like the homes with the screened in pools and apparently that’s called a Lanai. My current rent is $2250 and I am frankly inclined to buy rather than rent, but there is no way I am going to try and beat the deadline to get the 8K. In my case it makes no sense to break my lease or have dual house payments as it wipes out the benefit. Still there is a part of me that thinks, ehhhh I don’t know about buying out there. They’ve had a small uptick no doubt but there is a ton of inventory not moving due to the tax credit. People don’t want to take chances on short sales because they could lose (err spelled loose on the internet) their tax credit if it’s not all finished by the end of June I think.

Next to San Diego it seems like such a depressing place, but my friends in Ohio think I am lucky as hell. All about perspective I guess. The average midwesterner has never traveled much outside of going to South Carolina or one of the Florida coasts. Thus they cannot not understand why I don’t consider this a step-up.
