So I've been considering making some changes. But I would like to do my homework first.
Couple things to note so this thread doesn't deteriorate into a pile of shit again:
1) This thread is only about California.
2) I will be looking for a job in a field outside of the marijuana industry unless someone there knows of a job they can put me in touch with someone.
I have been looking at areas in California that seem friendly, safe, clean, hippyish, not over populated, affordable. Places like L.A. and San Fran just seem too big for me. I am sure they are awesome cities but just too big.
So I stumbled upon a few places and one that really sticks out to me is Santa Cruz. Then I started reading that it is the headquarters of the California Certified Organic farmers and even the city council issued a proclamation opposing the patriot act. I just think that's neat. The only downside is the houses from what I have seen are somewhat expensive. Are there other cities or areas nearby which are similar?
Or even South of Santa Cruz I was also looking at San Luis Obispo which looks quite pretty and has good reviews but is a fair bit more conservative and doesn't do well in air pollution scores.
I would like to live closer to the coast and live somewhere warm all year round but not sweltering hot. I prefer to live close to water whether it would be a lake or the Ocean. I'm not a beach person but I prefer to be near water.
Thank you.
