Gonna have to research it though.

Oh man dont go to AZ spent some time there with work an all I could think of was what in the world ever got into someones mind to ride a horse out into the middle of no place and just decide it was a good spot for a town/city. Nothing there but catus and such little rain that it gets sucked up the moment it hits the ground. spend the extra bucks to hit a coastline. I grew up on the jersey shore (not that its great) but it always makes me wonder how people can live in land locked states/countries. I need some ocean, just something about it for me.

I feel the same way, love living near the ocean. I do miss being able to spend a day hiking in the country. We have swamps and nasty sticky biting things here plus it is just flat and boring. California was nice since it had hills and stuff but as cd34 said you can't actually go in the water for most of the state plus it is expensive and has a state tax.

You are living on the border of bum fuck egypt up there. Come on down to Fort Lauderdale, it's feeling more and more like Los Angeles each year which is both a blessing and a curse. I dated a guy who lived up in Boca and I thought that I would go insane with boredom when I would stay with him. West Broward is another suburban hell. Why would you move down here and then buy a house in drained swamp land?

Downtown Ft. Laud. Finally has night life in the streets. It's nice just to be able to spend the evening walking around in the old town, River walk, Los Olas areas. Now if only we would get some decent theater and culture. I do really miss the lack of culture down here.

Fort Laud beach, I live just on the west side of the intercostal next to the beach, is still kind lame but improving.

Miami and South Beach is more city like but also like visiting another country. It is nice to go to South Beach every now and then.

Hollywood is right there in the middle and probably a good buy still.

Well DUH! Sorry cd34...missed that you already live in the sunshine state...oops

But, it just goes to show...the whole different strokes thing...lol. I've had the busy life...something to do ALL the freakin time. These days...I really like lazing around by the pool. Or, firing up the bike and going for a ride on roads that aren't so congested like California. Or, watching my gf in her string bikini...that's always fun! lol

Of course, with slingin porn for a living...doesn't leave a hell of a lot of time for those things...but I keep hoping!

Spousal Unit had a lifelong friend (that she rarely talks to anymore) that lived in the area. I'm happy enough here that until I can afford the house I really want, I'm not moving again. And, when I do move, we're leaving the furniture and starting over.

Another close friend said, if you're going to buy real estate, and you want more than a zero lot line, Palm Beach County. Although, recently we have been seeing more Browardization up here. With my job, a city could have every desirable thing in the world and I wouldn't have time to enjoy it anyhow. That will change soon..... I hope.
