Well I love the rain.

Also, I'd think living in SoCal would make me feel worse about myself when everyone is out at the beach shirtless (except the Mexicans) and the sun is out and I'm inside masturbating.

on behalf of the fat guys in the state, many of us still wear swim shirts, myself included. you'll be fine.

can't help you with the second part of your sentence.

I'm pretty sure that's the Texas state motto. 

It is. We'd also rather he kill himself than live in Texas. 

Seriously, though...  Austin is a truly great city if you can manage getting through the summers.

Dudes, once the bullet train is done, everything will be easily accessible at a low, low price. You guys are in for a treat. It's just around the corner.

Isn't summer 7 months a year there? 

[Blarg]

Ok, I was exaggerating. 

About how many months wasn't summer.

Is carlsbad cost of living about the same as orange county?

I'd say yes, not sure what OC goes for but I know even Corona is close (where I grew up and family still lives). I'm a block form the beach and rent on a 2 bed 2 bath 950sf apartment is around $2400. I moved in my current place at $1650 6 years ago, so it's gone up quite a bit.

It's been awesome so far. Hope I can live here when the need for school starts. Fantastic public schools too.

The idea is not to move from New England to Midwest New England.

[mtangelsfan]

Do not move to Montana, the east, where I live is cold and boring.

The west is too expensive.

 

[Lou]

just move already 

[Brandon]

Yeah, some of the OC rents are ridiculous. For a decent place (decent haha) it's around 2.5k a mo.

I beg to differ.  Two hours from Sacramento, one hour from Tahoe, lots to do and mild weather.  Low cost of living.

not sure how I missed this before, but . . . 

"Two hours from Sacramento" ?

is that supposed to be a selling point?

The flights in and out of there are a lot cheaper than most places.  I usually fly into there when visiting my brother in Reno.

Ah, the airport. lol

ok,that makes sense. i knew it couldn't be the city.

LOL, yeah.  Only been into the actual city once.  Must have been over a hundred outside.

[mrwicked]

get the f*ck out of NH.

hunt on craigslist, find a place with multiple roommates so the rent is cheap as possible, near the water. and then get some sun, focus on yourself and figure out what you do need to long term.

aim for cali, florida, hawaii for a year or so and you'll be fine.  austin, texas is also amazing. 

personally if you really need a change of pace, go plant it in europe for a while. work at a bookshop or tutor people in english or whatever in amsterdam or croatia or montenegro or anywhere in italy. you can bop around while you're there, it's so easy and cheap to get around. now is the perfect time if you aren't tied down. it will change your life for the better.

Reno is a little Sacramento with shitty casinos
