As much as it pains me to consider it, I'm begining to believe that life can be better somewhere else. As far as geographic beauty and weather, you cannot beat Santa Cruz. Unfortunately the town has a major identity crisis- wants to stay a funky little beach town but what it has become is a very expensive town by the beach with some funky parts to it (homeless people, tons of college students, worn out streets, and a city council seemingly more interested in things like medical marijuana than inceasing city revenues). The elementary schools are good, Jr high is decent and the high school is fair. We have lots of friends here and it would be painful to move away from them, but I make a good salary and can barely cover our expenses. I just don't think that the weather is worth it any more.
