Relocating

[fuggy]

Jacksonville, Tampa, Melbourne, Orlando Florida.
There are some really fabulous areas with modern homes to be had for very little now.
There is plenty of wildlife, low utility bills (we insulated the attic and rarely use air-conditioning). There are lots of young people. In the nice areas there is no gang activity like one finds in CA…
We don’t lock the door but I am not giving away the name of our little town.

Thanks for the replies. I do have that fear that I will miss SoCal so I wouldn’t buy for a couple of years.

I don’t think that I would do the East Coast thing. One reason that I don’t like this particular area is that I don’t like to get into “pissing contests” with other people. We live well below our means and I am a shorts/jeans, tank top and flip flops type of person…no glamour (unless my husband decides to drop some cash on me).

[quote=DWCAP]Portland, Seattle, Denver. In that order. [/quote]

That is the exact list I came up with…you beat me to the post.

But I would only move there if Calif was not an option. I have lived in many states and have sworn off ever leaving the state of California again.

Unless someone offers me a multi-year, multi-million dollar contract that can’t be canceled. And that ain’t gonna happen.

We had the same problem. Of course real estate was only part of the problem, but anyway we chucked North county coastal and moved to the Boston area 2 years back. It’s not as cold as the mid-west, where I have spent some time. But you do get a lot of snow here. Anyway, the schools in many areas are top-notch. The prices are probably about 15-35% lower than encinitas depending on how far away from the city you live – but with top notch schools and not too far from places of work.
