The houses are expensive because it's what the market will bear, period. If people are willing to pay tons of money to live close to the things they value, why shouldn't you charge them accordingly...

The west coast seems to be more expensive than the midwest as a general rule. It's generally nice, so it generally costs more because more people want to live there.

CA is a very nice place to live in my experience. The only reason I left the Bay Area was that housing was too expensive, and the crowds got on my nerves. Other than that it was a very nice place to live. Awesome weather, superb food, limitless outdoor activities, great nightlife, etc.

I'd still love to live in Truckee...or maybe Auburn/Grass Valley.

Well yeah, that is true.

But in San Diego, it seems the housing market tends to crash about every 10 years.


A former co-worker of mine lost about 85k on his house 7 years ago when the market bottomed.

Then it went back up of course.....

and now one guy was trying to relocate back her for work, but his house decreased in value by about 200k.



That is one hell of a volatile market.
