Beautiful place, great climate but too expensive

Santa Rosa CA is a really great locatation - 50 odd miles from San Francisco, mild climate year round, but the cost of housing is far too high. with a lowend average prices of about 450K for a small house in a a lower income neighborhood, it is impossible for someone with less than an 200K salary to buy a house without having to sell their souls to paying the mortgage. So its not affordable to live here and there arent any high paying jobs in the area. Its only affordable if you have a lot of money to start with.
