Review of Monterey Califor, Iowa


Monterey Peninsula Area
Star Rating - 1/31/2012
I have lived here for 9 years and love the clean air and beautiful nature but I don't feel deeply connected to people here. It is a retired, family kinda of environment. Also lots of old money and family owned business. Not very stimulating but has it's good points one of them being lots of silence and peace.

Florence, we are two retirees who could be able to purchase a home without a major mortgage hanging over our heads. My question is, if we take housing expenses (mortgage or rent) out of the picture, is Monterey still a very expensive city to live? I appreciate in advance your answer to this question. You could also answer me at ocelle@msn.com Please enter Cost of Living in Monterey in the subject area otherwise I will erase your answer from the junk box without noticing it. Best Regards, Olga
