ok. I like longbeach and agree with what someone posted earlier for it, san diego was cool but I know nothing about the markets pertaining to what you are looking for. I just know I liked going there when I was growing up and when I go to san diego for any tdy trips, I really like the old town area. maybe that area is good too?

that's funny. south padre is the worst place in the valley, to me. I worked down in the valley for a number of years and hated the island. I was just there last weekend for a bicycle race and my thoughts of the island are unchanged

Of course, I like living in the small town Kansas setting, how I was raised. My town has everything I need. And I don't have the money or much time to do fun things anyways, so it doesn't really matter. And if I wanted to do something fun, Wichita is an hour away. Everyone has their own taste, though....88 325i Cabrio

My wife was raised in White City, Kansas till she was 18 years old. I went there one time to check it out 2 years ago. No F**KING way ! 500 people only. Her sister lives in Herington and my wifes daughter lives in Newton. Way slower pace back there for sure.Your signature picture has been removed since it contained the Photobucket "upgrade your account" image.

Not quoting anyone because I'm just too damn lazy right now, and rushing during a commercial break of the KU hoops game...ROCK CHALK.
Anyway, Texas, specifically Austin has been discussed, but I just don't know if it's for me. I think I'd like Austin, probably quite a bit. But I just don't think I can get on board with living in Texas. I've spent a good amount of time in Dallas/Dallas burbs and it was meh....and I have just met way too many Texans that I just cannot stand. I know I'm making a generalization, that's just how I feel. So yeah, opinions, stereotypes, feelings.
That said, I do appreciate the input.
Yes, Kansas is very Kansas. But I'll always love LFK and KC.
Cali is what we've set out hearts on (foolishly? maybe), so thank you all for the reccomendations and your thoughts on housing, social life, job opportunity, etc.
We have been googling all of your suggestions and spending excessive amounts of time on Zillow, CL, etc. looking at apartments and houses.
Please keep your suggestions coming! Once we get out there, beers and BBQ at our place (we'll need friends, so don't suck). :)
Cheers!

Every month 17K move to CA, and every month 10K move out of CA
If I was coming to the Great State of California, I would target the Oceanside area within a bike ride of the coaster station. Easy access to jobs from the Mexican border to L.A, walk to pumping surf in warm water during the Summer. Great beach scene / beer culture and the canyons towards Mt. Laguna just inland are great for cruising the E30.
Good luck

Lots of cool work opps in the bay area for both of ya'll. Pinterest (SF downtown) or Pixar (Emeryville) for your girl and anything in the FiDi will work for ya.
Live in Oakland (cheaper rent) and bart in either direction to work and it's a wrap g.Last edited by RUFFLZ; 11-20-2017, 08:57 AM.
