Are you glad you moved? I would never move to the Northeast - I am thinking of around southern Indiana or northern Kentucky. Land is cheap, winters aren't too bad, and not near the DC - Boston megalopolis.

I love the west coast - the beauty, the forests, mountains, ocean - lived here since the late 60's. But the leftist takeover and now "gay" marriage is, I think, forcing me out.

I can relate. I lived there since the early 60's but could take it no longer. I was driven out by the idiocy....taxes, illegals, wacko's...you know! Crossed the state line October 10, 2003 at 7:03AM and have been breathing "fresh air" ever since.

I am in the DC area, in Virginia. It isn't an unbearably urban area, and just a few miles south, things get pretty rural. I do computer stuff professionally, which is why I picked this place. The job climate is better than in California, and I find that people are a lot more neighborly, on the whole.

California is what amounts to my ancestral home, we have been there for so many generations. I do get homesick sometimes, just because of that. But, as a raving history buff, I am kind of enthralled by what is here- Mt Vernon is just a few miles away, for example.

When I get my feet under me financially, I am going to consider moving south of here, though...
