I understand why every conservative Californian has left, but the grass doesn’t have to be, and likely won’t be greener on the other side. I moved back to CA ten years ago. Have a nice home in La Quinta, surrounded by private communities and golf courses. Our neighbors are 4-1 republicans, and there is very little riff raff around here. Weather is 85 degrees today, and restaurants and resorts are filled with tourists from around the world. We enjoy Indian Wells Tennis Gardens, shopping on El Paseo, and dining at the River in Rancho Mirage. Eisenhower Medical center is world class.
You can golf till you drop at over 100 golf courses. We pay more for things but that’s the price for quality of life, whether in Texas, Idaho, Arkansas, Tennessee, or right here in California. You can always run but you can’t hide.
That’s great that it works for you. I don’t golf...I shoot...a lot. And the writing is on the wall in California...my guns are no longer welcome so I will give the State no more of my life and wealth.
