Thank you for a truthful and sincere post. I believe you are being honest and telling it like it is. This is the case just about everywhere now. I blame meth ultra liberal politicians and the overall downturn of the economy. California is much the same way. Especially forested areas like Placerville etc where it is easy to hide meth labs. I'll visit but stay in Santa Cruz which has also taken a major downturn due to overcrowding, traffic, drugs, gangs and mucho mucho homelessness...I still call them bums. Our county almost invites them here. Like feeding a stray dog. Now we have strays everywhere, roadsides, under overpasses, green areas off freeways and main roads etc. I feel for these people but geeze...most don't even try. All this being said, most parts of Santa Cruz county are still some of the best on the west coast. Having lived in the sierra foothills also, I can almost see and feel what Oregon is experiencing. Sorry. If real estate is comparably cheap, there is a reason for this.
