I get that many people like the area, it's just not for me. Then again, I'm not a beach guy. It's probably why I do like Northern California, but not so much Southern California.
The thing about Southern California is.. where I am, I can drive 3ish hours one way and be in.. Beautiful Mountains/Snow Skiing, drive 3 hours the other way and be in Baja Desert, go another way.. world class beaches, 3 hours to Vegas, every concert you ever want to see every weekend etc, so many things to do/see. Definitely not just beaches.

I've lived in New Orleans for most of my life with small stints in Florida, South Carolina, Nashville, Chicago area.. it's definitely very expensive but. I can for sure see why folks from here want to come back. (especially if money is not a big obstacle)


Best thing is.. Been here a lil over a year and still can't get over how absolutely gorgeous the weather is 99% of the time.
