Participant[quote=eclipxe][quote=patientlywaiting]I would much rather live in Oceanside than Temecula if lower cost of housing is the consideration. The weather and location are better, especially for a single semi-retired person.
[/quote]I wouldn’t.
So there.

Ok, sorry I have to give it a try.
Temecula is a good choice. 2500 sq ft, new construction $100 sqft. Boom.
Access to good hiking and trails, lot’s of outdoor space, nature – yes. You will love it.
You will not be able to experience a lot of things without a private car, but this city is a dream to bike in. Bike lanes and trails through a lot of the city. There is a trail that goes through Murrieta, by CHS high school, Harveston, by the mall and out to Winchester. It is next to a ravine and a nice, well paved ride. You can get to any type of service you need in a few minutes by bike along this trail, without having to deal with the bike lanes on the road (which aren’t bad).
A cab will suffice to get to further locations (Old Town, etc). Living in central or northern Temecula is best if cycling access is desired.
A rental car to the beach a couple of times a month or to go to SD or LA is a fair option. I’m also a software guy that works at home in Temecula and I rarely drive. Like you said – Amazon is our friend. Vons delivers (they even take the bags in for you).
I think I understand exactly the kind of lifestyle you desire and I’m here to say Temecula fits that. Peaceful, quiet, nature but with enough access to the beach and cities to keep you sane. The folks suggesting Hillcrest, Mission Hills or Downtown don’t really “get it”.

January 23, 2009 at 11:54 AM #334041ParticipantAnd I forgot – as a software guy and I assume a gamer – we have FIOS here.
20 mbps down and UP, low latency. $50/mo. You can even get 50 mbps out here now.
Plus uncompressed HDTV over FIOS. If you’re a techie (and work at home) Temecula/Murrieta is awesome.

ParticipantRE– heath insurance? I’m healthy with no history of health issues. Probably just need catastrophic insurance.
My best friend and one of my aunts were also healthy right up until the day they were diagnosed with cancer in their 30’s.
