ParticipantAbout 50% of my high school and college friends have left CA. None have come back. Most of the rest are in the Bay area, and none of them talk about leaving much. Bay area weather, especially in summer, isn’t why they are staying.
Alot of the people I have heard of wanting to leave CA are either my age (mid 20’s) or my parents age with the kids gone. My parents have friends who are selling their house, buying a small condo, and moving to Idaho. Spring, summer, fall and ski weeks in Idaho; Holidays and March in Santa Barbara. Plus the taxes, and reduced crowds and clean living and such.

ParticipantI’ve been to quite a few states, and cost of living aside, I have yet to find a place as “livable” as San Diego. The north (Idaho, Montana, etc.) gets ungodly, painfully cold in the winter. Most of the east coast and south – bugs, humidity. Central – too hot, too dry, or both. Northwest – too wet, overcast.
My wife wants to pay cash for a house in small-town America where they have actual seasons, and I’m all for that, but I haven’t seen one that didn’t have its own issues – full of ignorant hicks, too small, too artsy, too popular with tourists, too far off the beaten path. If anyone knows of a good compromise, I’d love to hear it.
