As I said above, "acquired taste" and whatever floats your boat.
Prefer the trade-off for 50 - 75 fewer riding days, 1/2 your cost of living, 1/6 your taxes with better services, no excuses, lush and green most of the year without irrigation, everybody speaks some variant of English and I don't need a Star Trek translator to communicate. Twisties right out the front door, Blue Ridge Parkway one hour away on nice roads, beach is two hours and it's the Gulf Stream, NOT the Humbolt Current..., BRRR..., not that I much care. Not a beach person and definitely NOT a fan of La-La-Land...
BTW, no Nanny State here until you get to the DC suburbs. All my magazines are 15 - 18 rounds.
Plenty of water in the river just down the road too.

You are getting very close to an unscheduled break from the DMF.
First...many of my ancestors didn't speak English when they arrived in this country...
second...we don't do politics...at all.
Third...gun stuff goes in the appropriate thread in NMC...or it is automatically a political statement.
Knock it off.
