My daughter and her husband moved from Studio City, CA to the Phoenix areea. They are accountants that found jobs at the same pay. However, a crappy bungalow on a busy street where they used to live cost $650k and had California style property taxes, etc. They bought a nice almost 3k sq ft house in AZ with a beautiful in-ground swimming pool and two car garage for $240k.

I don’t know why people even stay in CA. Sure, there are a lot of attractions, but you pay dearly and the traffic is so bad you don’t bother.

Was just talking about this yesterday. You hear of something fun happening on the weekend but it’s going to take 1.5 hours each way. And it’s going to cost money which you spent on your rent or mortgage. I’m losing the point to living here too. Though mostly there isn’t much weather. Except drought and fires.
