Amazing how the world over we value the warmer climes, be it south of France, Florida, California or Queensland,
But then liars and frauds tell us the globe has warmed a measely 0.7DegC and they’re all in a frigging panic. Go figure.
I am in California. I’m not surprised at all by this. California is romanticized.
By far the most beautiful state I’ve been in, but it’s hard to live there-seems like everyone is a zombie with some pet project to live for.
It really depends where in California you live. We moved to the Palos Verdes Peninsula about ten years ago and it truly is heaven on earth. Fantastic climate, clean air, very low crime, great schools, stable house prices, nice people and spectacular views. Yes, it cost a fortune to buy a house here, but it was an investment that also allows my kids to grow up in a nice place. My taxes are high, but even Jerry Brown can’t screw up the weather and the views. There are other similar places such as South Orange County, coastal San Diego and Santa Barbara. All have something in common, they are very nice places to live with residents determined to keep it that way through local civic involvement.
The areas of California that are suffering saw rapid expansion during the housing boom. These are places that grew for one reason; land was cheap. There was no real reason that people really wanted to live there other than to be able to own a home. There was no intrinsic value in the location or sense of community among the residents. When the bubble burst, brand new neighborhoods descended into squalor. We saw the exact same thing back in the housing boom of 1989. Brand new communities built in terrible locations (such as Palmdale and Moreno Valley) turned into slums within ten years. History repeats.
Living in Florida if you don’t like the heat go inside where it’s air conditoned.
