Review of Monterey, California

Wonderful to look at but....
Star Rating - 8/30/2006
Monterey is one of the most beautiful places I know of. It has tons of recreation opportunities along with the renowned Monterey Bay Aquarium but....Monterey is also one of the most expensive places around to live in and the salaries for most jobs don't come close to measuring up to the cost of living. It is not for lower income or even middle income households. If you are considering relocating to Monterey, be careful.
