re: Happy camper - 12/13/2011 -
11/27/2012Looking to re-locate to the DC Metro Area from Northern California (San Francisco Bay Area). Are there any areas you would suggest for a young family with school-aged children? I'm used to living in affluent areas with great public schools and low crime. Thanks!

Typical East Bay -
11/27/2012I live in San Lorenzo; a small city in the East Bay area between Oakland and Hayward. The area is very typical of Northern California: outsanding weather, great diversity, high cost of living: high rent especially. There are great places to eat and entertainment activities are okay. Being that I have travelled to many different places in the U.S. I am not moved by what California has to offer. Although there's great diversity, the cultural activities I enjoy are lacking (i.e. music venures, theatre, history). Plus, the real estate prices (with no land) are outrageous when you compare the buying power of a dollar in different parts of the country. In my opinion California only has great weather to offer. Looking to re-locate soon...?
